My shop has a lot of potential. It is 40' wide by 80' long with ~11.5" tall walls that are brick/block construction. The two exterior walls that face civilization have brick veneer to match the house. The other two walls are out of view due to a hill and timber so they are just natural block. My wife found her dream home 4 years ago with a "detached wood workers shop". Once I saw the house and shop, I found myself saying "yes dear" to her without much fight. We put in an aggessive bid that was accepted and the house appraised for more than our bid, so the shop was a freebie.
I moved eveything I had into the shop and have found ways to occupy most of the 3200 sq ft. Right now it is more of a warehouse that I work in, but in time I hope to turn it into a proper shop. However with two of the kids in college (and the older one getting ready to apply to med school) and the economy in the tank, money is very tight so I will be happy for now and continue to dream about what the future holds for the shop.
For winter spot heat, I have two patio heaters. In the summer, I have an attic fan in the rear wall and a mobile one for where I am working. I have an entertainment center surplused from the house in the front corner serving as the hub for fine living. It has a stereo, TV and microwave, plus an experienced frig next to the entertainment center for cold drinks in the summer. Not really a man cave with all the perks, but I have no room to complain.
Excellent... another homebrewer!!I currently have 30 gallons of beer fermenting.

My man cave/garage/brewery is just a 2 car garage... one side piled with my **** and the other with enough room for my wife to park.. Nothing worth looking at now but hopefully that will change soon. Will post pics then.

I'm gonna have to bust out a wall and add a lounge to compete with some of the photos above. Here's a couple shots of my garage. My best mods were the I-beam across for lifting and the cabinets for storage without grinding dust. I've got heat and TV. These are from before painting the floor and moving my tools in.
