" Reminds me of "community garages" that used to be popular a long time ago - you would rent a service bay (maybe with a lift, maybe not), and there was an owner with a well-stocked parts room (all for sale) and tool room (all for rent/loaned). The idea was you could either run a small auto repair business out of the bay, or work on your own cars...
the car talk guys used to run one in cambridge, back in the '70s iirc.
it was sometimes a challenge, supporting customers who didn't know as
much as they thought they did.
