Well I did not waste anytime in getting the rest of the garage prepped for the tile. Over the weekend and last night I spent time moving everything from the unfinished side to the finished side. During this process I had a bunch of stuff to toss which made life easier as it freed up considerable...

That is something I truly wish I had in the garage, some water tie in. Sadly with a detached garage, running water and then trying to figure out drainage would be a massive and costly endeavor. Good luck with your research, curious to see how you put it together. BTW I really like the placement...

Very well done! Concrete looks so nice! Did you get it polished and sealed?

FINALLY I have begun laying down the tiles! The moment that I have been waiting for since I began working on the garage. I was excited for the NewAge Cabinets and for the paint, but flooring was my number one focus! I had to double check my layout and measurements. I decided to cut the first...

Wow! That shop looks awesome! Wish I could have half that space haha!

Well if you're ever in the area again, let me know. I'll have a cold one in the garage for you or anyone wanting to visit! :beer: Blazed Orange - Hop Butcher by Dawid Lachowicz, on Flickr

I'd be totally interested in a shirt, Size Small. Let me know how to send you funds! :thumbup::beer:

We got snow Tuesday night, woke up to an unpleasant surprise of coverage Wednesday morning. And it's currently snowing as well. This better be the last of it :mad:

Now came the fun part of filling up the NewAge lockers. This allowed me to start clearing off the floor space in preparation for the RaceDeck. I dedicated one locker to my wife's gardening needs and the other to my random car stuff (degreasers, bottles of oil, spare parts, etc.) This allowed me...

Trust me I want all of this done as quickly as the next person! Just ***** that I have drying times to wait and those cannot be rushed, which you know very well! Soon enough I'll show this off as a whole. Thanks! See you're in MKE, I'm up there quite often as my sister lives there. Fun little...

So next up was to prime and paint the plywood, not doing so would drive my OCD. One night was spent on primer, came back the following night and threw a coat of paint. Came out looking half decent for sanded ply: Painted Tire Rack Wall by Dawid Lachowicz, on Flickr Painted Tire Rack Wall by...

I know that RAD garage does a major cleaning of his Swisstrax and concrete slab every few months. He even posts videos on his YouTube channel showing his process. There are pluses and minuses to each floor type (epoxy vs tile). It honestly comes down to personal preference. I ended up going...

Thanks! I've been doing a good amount of prep work for the floor this week, sadly been slacking on providing updates here. Should have a good amount of updates today/tomorrow! :thumbup:

Re: Indianapolis 2-car BMW/Ford 2-car garage build! WOW! Super jealous of your ceilings!! Wish I had that kind of height in my garage. Surprised that your plans/goals did not include a lift of sorts. Really like your light set up. I am currently looking to do some sort of enclosed LED lighting...

I'm very impressed with all of your work Nick! I've always been one to work on cars/engines, but never got into woodworking. Spending some time on this site has me very intrigued. Looking at your thread and the various builds it is all very impressive. Keep up the good work!
