Lol! True tho. I have seen many cool things made using it.

Hello I recently aqquired some small pieces of tin roofing and I was wondering what I could use them for, I also would like knowing what the dangers are of using it if there are any thank you very much in advance

Best use is for Roofing, covering wood piles etc.  All my buildings any size has metal roofs (steel), generally Galvanized and in the last 20 yrs colored, right down to an outhouse at hunting camp.  Not designed to be heated. 

Anything with a tin roof is designed to be heated out here in New Mexico!   Shoot we're still sleeping with the window open in the bedroom trying to get it cool enough to sleep!  I might light the furnace pilot light in a week or two...

again I would love more space but let me rephrase it, if i claim more of my dads garage and yard he would go crazy lol

Understand completely. My comment just goes along with that general idea that you can never have too big of a shop. Although, I walk into Home Depot, take a look around and think, "yeah, this could be just about big enough" LOL

I agree with That statement lol. I could do with That size shop and be content. :D

nah Id say get 3 home depots, 1 for inside work (grinding, cutting with power tools etc.) 1 for forging and other outside work, and 1 for storage of metal and other such stuff

Glad to know im not the only one who does this lol. 

Meanwhile, those of us using a QUARTER of the garage....

I have a "cousin" whose farm shop is 100' x 100' with wood, metal and machining shops in it as well as various tractors, combines, etc....

Nope, being a farmer is it's own punishment...look how anxious Luke Skywalker was to get off his Uncle's farm...
