That's another thing I'm debating myself about. Since I don't have a huge garage, one of my mantra's is "Everything should be on wheels" so I can move or re-arrange as I see fit. That being said, this is just a cabinet to put cans & bottles of stuff in, and I'm not sure that I'm ever going to...

Looking for a tall roll-around locker style cabinet and came across the “Geneva” line from Homak. Home Depot seems to not stock anymore, but you can buy direct from Homak. https://homak.com/product/2-door-tall-mobile-cabinet-with-4-shelves/ Anyone have any experience? I’m not sure I can justify...

Great feedback, thanks guys!

I'm curious what you mean by "too tippy" (I haven't browsed through your thread yet). Are you not securing the whole bar to the floor?

Even though this isn't going in my garage, I hope its not too far off-topic. Anyone here have any experience building a home bar? I'm in the planning stages and I'm looking for tips & tricks from those who've done it before. I'm struggling with 2 issues. 1) What to do for a back drop...

Not sure what you mean by J-hanger? Any reason to not use the ceiling plate and go into the bottom of the joist? 12' ish across the garage, 5' ish across the top of the shelves. I figured attaching to joists would be required, it just ***** because I'm pretty sure there isn't one centered on...

I have some gas pipe that runs across my garage, that's currently supported by a built in shelf I want to tear down. The pipe is 1-1/4", or 1", not sure without double checking. I know support is needed every 6', can I attach the ceiling plates such as this (LINK) into the drywall with anchors...

I have a 10x10 shop space with concrete floors that was a cedar closet in its former life. The 2x4s that made up the base of the closet were covered in foundation tar, so now that they're gone, the space has 8 or so 4" wide strips of tar on the concrete. I knocked down the high spots with an...

So I'd like to replace the door leading from my house into the garage. The door itself is 32"x78" and the rough opening is 34.5" x 80". The 80" height is dead on, the problem is that all the common Home Depot Jeldwen doors list a rough opening of 80.5". To make matters worse, they are packaged...

Thank you both! When you say sand smooth do you mean a grinder or an actual sander? Any specific grit? Thanks again.

Hello. I'm getting ready to prep my garage floor for a rust bullet coating. Considering it's age, the floor is in really good shape and is *mostly* smooth. However, there are a few small divots, cracks, etc... that I'd like to smooth over, nothing deeper than 1/8". Whats the best...
