Hey, a few update pics. Not TOO much changed, but moved some cabinets around, cut some wood, things fit better than ever.

Been a while. Figured I just cleaned stuff up and did some new (cheap) organizing and de-junking of stuff so a few new pics. Still holding to the goal of having space in here to work on a project car and pull a 2nd car in temporarily if needed, which is going fine other than my kids' half-dozen...

been a while since I updated this. Anyhow, as usual I've rearranged, added stuff, build stuff, etc. Today I did a pre-winter cleanup and figured I'd take a few new pics: built a little fold-down table for my kids to use when they play with car parts in the garage. bins, bins, bins I...

Meh, not much to report recently but I did do a thorough cleaning of the garage last weekend, made a few small tweaks to the layout, etc. So here's a few pics for posterity, since it won't be this clean for a while I bet.

Thanks Bruce, that's good stuff - exactly what I was hoping for. Yeah, this is going to take some planning for sure! Will definitely check out your thread. Any suggestions on particular tile places in the DMV area that would be good to inquire with other than the usual ones that come up on...

example: this is semi-vitreous, but it seems to fill the bill for most other categories. Would it be a bad idea? http://www.homedepot.com/p/TrafficMASTER-Sanibel-White-12-in-x-12-in-Ceramic-White-Floor-Tile-14-sq-ft-case-PH3003/202933699?N=5yc1vZarszZ1z0tni5Z1z11cvn

This summer if all goes as planned I would like to tile the garage floor (with 12x12). I've done a lot of reading around here as well as the johnbridge tile forums and GRM, but would like to wrap everything together and get some advice on some outstanding questions that seem to have differing...

Now I see the reason in the checkout cart....my local store only has about 30 of them. And none other in the county have any more. Dammit.

Settled on tiling my garage floor (garage is about 22'x22'). Looking for something that can be done on a small budget but still last. I live in the DC area, so it will see hot and cold, and get wet on occasion. At one of the local big-box stores they have tiles with the following specs: 18x18"...

Haha, as long as they're cheap wheels, I always have space, Paul :) Thanks, though I'm running out of new ideas lol. BTW< it's a GT6, not TR6 ;)

So a few minor updates, though none too exciting... I've been furiously cleaning all day since for the last 3 weeks I"ve been doing sanding/bodywork on the car so there's dust and **** everywhere, and needed to clean all that up. My wife has been doing crafty stuff to make some extra money...

true, I feel your pain. I had a few townhouses before this where the "tool area" was the basement and the cars were parked parallel on the street in front. So car work (on daily drivers, didn't have any projects then) involved lugging everything up stairs, out the door, and to the curb. I had a...

trust me, I've been over your thread more than once and taken a few of your ideas for inspiration. And every time I'm in there I'm jealous of your ceiling fans :bowdown:....which I would love to do if I had much open ceiling space :) I am lucky in that I don't have to keep any of my yard stuff...

And every time I look at pics of the space, it continues annoy me that I haven't done anything about the floor yet, and how terrible it looks. And the irony of the fact that the more stuff I add to the periphery of the garage, the more of a pain in the **** it's going to be when I finally get...

Many thanks for the complement. Just like my (also relatively cheap) cars, I try to put a lot of thought (and way too much sweat) into the details of things to do them in a compact and inexpensive way that still lets me use the space :) And I love this forum because it gives me ideas, so I hope...
