Try Amazon. They are imports but I use them for most of my projects. The 100 lb ball bearing are smooth and can be had at decent prices.

the one I purchased from Amazon goes 11', this was good for the 10' ceiling areas and the top section of the walls since I did most of the hanging by myself. I did purchase the extension, it was 35-40 bucks through Amazon. It raises it to a max of 15 so I am told. My tray ceiling area is 13'4"...

Chevy, just looking through your build, great job! A drywall lift comes in real handy especially if you are hanging it yourself. I bought mine through Amazon, if your a Prime member it's free shipping and you have it quick. I purchased a 11' lift and the extension to hit my 13' ceiling for under...

I am right at 40K, including the lift and driveway. About 8K over my original budget I set during the planning phase.

Thanks 1/2 cup, I will never even attempt that again.

I plan on adding a blue stipe through the black sometime. Should have done that before moving everything in, but I had cars to work on. Pressure washed the floor, probably will never be that clean again Wife's A4, sold it at the beginning of the summer Looked so big until moving...

Added 1900+ square feet of driveway from existing driveway to garage, forget how many yards Added privacy fence posts before concrete, installed panels after. Don't have updated pics, but house soffits and gutters are now white to match the garage. Interior pics inbound next

more added an area between the ceiling joists incase I decide to move the lift over... don't think I will be doing that anytime soon. The vaulted or tray ceiling, this sucked to hang drywall Lift works!

lots of updates.... Took pics, life gets in the way when it comes to updating here Insulation / Lift / Drywall

Great garage! Very ingenious on the lift / pulley system. I have 13' ceilings so I may steal this idea when I begin drywall in a few weeks. I did the reverse, 2 kids (3 and 18 mo), then new to us house then built garage. Wish I did it your way.... Enjoy the garage and fatherhood.

Thanks. Plan to drywall the walls and 10' ceilings, still trying to decide on what to do for the tray ceiling (OSB or PLY). Top half of walls and ceiling will be white, lower will be grey. Of course there will be all the shelving, cabinets, tool storage and workbenches. The garage will mainly...

Thanks... Getting there. Its all time and money right!

More, some of the pics are a bit dark...

Steel fire rated door from Menards. First panel ever attempted.. Had some guidance from the electrician who hooked up to the panel in the basement.

This site has been great while I planned this build. Wife says I'm obsessed with the garage, I probably am. Eventually I will need to focus on the house and some bathroom remodels and other areas. Future updates: need to schedule the rough electrical and framing inspection by the county...
