Baiscally 20x20.
Tiny garage door at the back left.
Check out the diagram I posted, the squares represent roughly one foot.
We also re-enforced the ceiling quiet a bit knowing we were going to hang shelving.
 
Here is my recent addition to the garage for storage. Built from scrap lumber and leftover shelving from my parents storage I recently cleared out for them. Hickory face frame, white melamine shelving and the ledger was ripped off the shelving to narrow the shelve depth to 12".

Only thing purchased was a 2x4x16 piece of redwood for the toe kick that I scribed level to accommodate the slope of the garage floor

I grabbed these Boston Acoustic speakers out of the trash at a remodel I worked on. There dated 1993 but sound great after I built some quick boxes.

Going to install them In the ceiling, holes will be cut for the speakers, boxes will slip through opening and screw thru the sheet rock to mount the boxes. Then mount the speakers to the drywall with a sandwich type plate that were on the speaker.

I would have liked to make the boxes bigger but made them to fit through the hole so I don't have to crawl around the blown insulation in the attic and disturb the R value

The boxes I made from the old work bench top that I took out to build the shelving, it came to far out at 2' 6" from the wall and cramped up the back door exit.

More to come in the next few months as I have time, I have hoarded materials for the last few years and sick of the clutter. Gonna burn it up and put it to good use. I do a lot of finish work so I have lots of random hardwood that I'll use for face frame.

The melamine and maple ply were a little difference in thickness, so I made all the verticals first. Then swapped one blade out on my dado set for a thicker one and plowed my groove out to support the shelves
