    Looking for a simple, free 3D garage layout tool

    I have an oversized two-car garage that I'm considering putting a double four-post lift in so I can park my two Austin-Healeys over my two daily drivers. I know it's going to be a tight squeeze and I'd like to find a program that would allow me to place the "cube" of the cars on the lift inside...

    Paint Over Old Two Part Epoxy?

    When we built our house 35 years ago, I painted the garage floor with Sears two-part epoxy paint. It's held up well, but is wearing away in spots, has some oil stains, etc. But it's still holding tight with no flaking. I'd prefer not to grind all the old stuff off if possible and don't really...

    Old Epoxy Paint Floor Rehab

    Thirty years ago when my house was built, I painted the concrete floor with a Sears epoxy paint. With two Austin-Healeys, it's seen all kind of abuse, engine swaps, brake fluid spills, and of course, oil leaks. I'd like to rehab it, but am not sure how to go. I'm not thinking dream garage...

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    Anyone use the Folding Mechanic's Pad? http://www.harborfreight.com/folding-mechanics-pad-93896.html I need something thicker than a sheet of cardboard on my concrete floor but thinner than a creeper under my no-ground-clearance Austin-Healey.

    Screen for Bottom of Garage Door?

    A friend of mine says he saw an expandable screen to fit across the bottom of an overhead door with the door partially open to allow ventilation while keeping leaves and critters out. Only trouble is, he can't remember where he saw it. Anyone know who might sell such a device? Rick

    Recoat Over Old Sears Epoxy?

    When we built our house about 20 yrs ago, I painted the new concrete floor with a Sears two-part floor epoxy in a gray color. It's a dull color, no shine and no color particles mixed in. It's held up very well, still adheres with no flaking, but is dirty and really needs a repaint. How do I...
