Thanks! I've been sorting out electrical messes from the previous owners. I found a 3 gang wiring mess in the attic which I fixed yesterday. Previous owner cut the romex, spliced in one for a ceiling fan, wire nutted it, wrapped in tape and sealed it behind drywall (no box).

Sometimes I feel like I'm posting to myself in here, haha! Anyways, next up is a motion sensor for the lighting and adding a ceiling fan over the workout area...

Ah the suspense... installed the garage doors and openers yesterday. The 15" sweeps make a huge difference in track height. I love not having the overhead track as well. The 8500's are so smooth and quiet! I have been having fun with the MyQ, and purchased a lightswitch to remotely control the...

Its been a couple months, but the final details are coming together. The house has original garage doors and openers (25 years old), all of which decided to quit working last week. Well, that sounds like an excuse to convince the wife for new doors and openers! I got quotes from Amarr, Raynor...

Awesome project, thank you for sharing updates, not trying to bust your balls - You obviously know what you're doing!

Yeah, total WTF! Concrete burns are no joke. I do this for a living, ouch.

Good luck with your projects! No, I did not use water. It was a dusty mess. I wanted to apply the primer shortly after grinding, and I didnt want to get the floor wet and deal with dehumidifying. The polyurethane kit from the Epoxy Store worked great, and hold up well so far. I used them only...

Looks great, but have your crew wear the proper PPE when finishing/handling concrete:wtf: Gloves and glasses at least!

Last night I was able to squeeze my boat in the garage. While seemingly a simple task, it turned into the most complicated procedure yet. My driveway slopes down toward the house and levels off 2 feet before the garage door. When backing the trailer down, the prop gaurd scraped at the toe of the...

Mainly because of cost. The crack are so shallow and thin I did not need a gallon of the epoxy that legacy sold. I am an engineer/construction project manager by trade, and in my professional opinion on those cracks the epoxy alone would have been suitable for filling. The crack filler is cement...

Thanks!

I posted my project in the garage gallery, but thought I would specifically post here and give my results of the Legacy SD flooring. After years of lurking, and a failed Rustoleum job on a previous house (before I joined), I decided to use Legacy Industrial for my flooring. However, because my...

Sorry, pictures didn't upload, so here you go. I sanded the old cabinets with 120 grit paper, primed and painted with rustoleum enamel paint. They look decent for garage cabinets. When I first started this project my wife thought I was crazy. I caught her Saturday night mopping the garage floor...

I got the cabinets I was able to salvage sanded, painted and hung today. Also got the garage organized and everything in bins and wall hung. Next up is my work bench build and tool organization.

Thank you for all the comments!
