    I'd love to do that, but I feel like I have to do something removable. I thought galvanized pipe with a foot that it screws into, and loops on the top. then thick rope running through the loops. :headscrat

    Holy hell I finally have my own garage...

    That might be a reach, I've only built that wall, and the work bench. I didnt even have a circular saw before the other day! we'll see how long it takes me to fill it up with that stuff I'll get a pic of that tomorrow in the light. Which porsche? :P Well, it crossed my mind, but I think...

    I think you are right. the ceiling and all walls other than the work bench area are going to be fire rated drywall. I dont know if it qualifies as a "livable" space up there though. I'll be putting up good fire rated thick stuff so I didnt check as I am doing drywall either way. I've had a carb...

    Holy hell I finally have my own garage...

    The staircase is pretty cool. I started staining it and it was just too cold. I'll have to wait till spring. The question is what kind of railing? I was thinking galvanized pipe with loops on top that screw into brackets I mount on the side. that way I can take them off if I want to get...

    I've rented for the last 14 years. I've lurked the forum for a long time as well. I've never had a garage of my own, and I've always had to suffer with awful insulation, no heat, no space, cracked floors, and other peoples or landlords problems. Here are some of the garages I've had in the past...

    Joe Homeowner’s Garage Build

    I enjoyed your thread. So much stuff on here looks like it's built by billionaires. Its good to see a regular guys successes and struggles with a normal person size garage. Keep up the good work!
