Not really amazing, but here ya go :beer:

I went with the clear top coat to give it more shine and also to make it easier to clean up. I don't know what it would be like without it, I did it all in a weekend. It isn't really slippery, but you wouldn't want a group of kids with wet feet running around in there, they would surely fall a...

How is your project progressing? I have 95% of what I need done, but that last 5% is taking forever. :lol_hitti I am putting up trim upstairs and all I have left is the flooring up there and I'm done. Finally, now I can start using the garage. The only thing extra I'm considering is a...

I'm satisfied with the floor. If I had to do it over again I would use rust bullet again, but forgo the flakes. Having the flakes makes it near impossible to find anything you drop smaller than a camshaft. I only did the main part of the garage with the flakes, and in the back room I just did...

Haha. Yeah good call. I'm going to box in the sides and put a shelf along the top. No info other than they came out of a hospital building that was recently demolished. They are old, that's for sure. Thanks, it's a first year model RC51, 2000. Still feels new even though it is 15 years old.

I went with 55". I was seeing 18 to 20 inches above counter top height of 36" so I just split the difference. There is still a lot of work to do in the new garage, but most of it is moving stuff in and organizing on the main level. The upstairs still needs to have the insulation finished...

Thanks everyone. They were a real PITA getting them up there by myself. They are built heavy like things used to be. Just guessing on age from the building they were removed from, they are a lot older than I am.

Just a follow up to all the great info here. I got my cabinets mounted last weekend but just got some pics today. Anyway, here is what I ended up with; Now I have back a large portion of my floor space to move some items in :)

That is pretty epic! Those look like similar cabinets. I'm liking the space between with shelving. I hadn't thought of that. I may be stealing this idea.

That would put them roughly 50" to 51" off the floor. Even though I don't intend to park a car here, I could see a car door banging into the bottom of the cabinets. Then again, with the height of SUV's today I don't think I can get them high enough to be safe from that. Most if not all the...

Nadogail; I plan on parking a couple motorcycles in this bay and the cabinets will contain extra parts, trinkets and doo-dads. They are mostly for display. The only one that will get used with any regularity is the 24" I will keep my current helmets in there. I have a collection of old and...

I got a bunch of heavy duty cabinets for free recently and I'm trying to figure out the best height to install them at. I got 4 cabinets 36" wide, 1 @ 24" wide and 1 @ 30" wide. They are all 13" deep and 30" high. I have found a lot of conflicting answers regarding cabinet height. Mostly...

Just thinking about something. Not actually building. If I were I would most certainly contact a qualified person to check my ideas. Thanks.

It is in fact an S12x31.8 Not going to be supporting anything near that weight. Just looking for a general guide. 4 ton max loading. Thanks.
