Made some progress since my last post. I finished installing all the batt insulation in the walls and then I was able to get a great deal on some 1/2'' sanded plywood for the walls. I also came across a great deal on some 10'x3' sheets of galvalume metal for the ceiling. All of the remaining...

Thanks! I’m back and forth on it. I’ve been looking at some of those newer style LED light bulbs with the articulating panels and am worried that with the white ceiling it’ll be too bright, if that’s possible. The Blazer was actually one of three that the previous owner was rebuilding. My Dad...

Thank you! My wife and my friends that live on the street had a good time making fun of me for how obsessive I was during the prep for the epoxy. I think it was worth it, it turned out great. My neighbor did the same prep and has had the same product on his floors for about 7 years now with no...

Can you do me a favor and tell me if you are able to see them now? I paid for a yearly subscription to ImageShack and changed my hosting over there and updated the links.

Hm, I am hosting them with Imgur and they are showing when I view the thread.

I've always wanted a garage that I could work in but also have the ability to kick back and relax in. After talking to my wife we decided that we would get the most use out of the garage if I finished the inside off and installed a heat/ac system. First thing to tackle was the floors, the...

I've been waiting for the day that I could actually make this post - long time lurker and we are finally done moving and I can make this garage MINE. When my wife and I got married in 2014 we purchased our first home... a 3 bed 2 bath rambler with a 25x25 detached garage. We loved the place but...

Hell yeah, I'd love a set.

Have used the Harbor Freight version for a year now on numerous projects and I absolutely love it. However, when it comes to bits and hardware I buy the Kreg brand because I've found them to be leaps and bounds better in quality from my experience using both.

The old place looks great as well as the new place! Can't wait to see what you do with the new space! I'm in NoVa also, Stafford to be exact.

Will do. Been lurking for a while on the boards and checking out everyone else's builds. Finally bought my first place back in July and it came with a 24x24 detached shop that I'm getting fixed up how I want it. Definitely. This is my first real tool box other than the one in the bed of my...

Cleared up some clutter to get my toy put away for the winter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Always. The shop also serves as a cigar lounge/video game den/beer drinking cave/hideout! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Bought a house back in July and had been working out of a few tiny travel toolboxes when my wife and parents surprised me with the HF 44" top and bottom as a Christmas gift. The wife topped it off with a Craftsman 350 piece tool set and a bunch of other tools. I don't cry often but when they...
