    My attempt to organize 2 car attached garage - Auto Shop

    The toolbox I have doesn't have enough space for everything. I had the pegboard and put it to use. I never even thought about changing the approach to the way I store the tools and now you all have me thinking a bit different about that. I am a bit of a pack rat so most of the cabinets are...

    My attempt to organize 2 car attached garage - Auto Shop

    I guess after two years I can post an update. I am far from an organized person and thus tend to have a cluttered garage. So this time I decided I needed to get the majority of the floor and bench clean. While far from perfect, it is way better than it had been. I spent some time searching...

    What do your Storage Cabinets look like?

    They look great. Tell me about the storage unit above the cabinets. I cannot tell if they are plastic or metal. What are they and how much can they hold? I want to add some overhead storage and this looks like what I need. Thanks!

    They are Fuchs, it is a 1969 911 but it is a clone of the IROC / RS 3.0 cars from 1974.

    My attempt to organize 2 car attached garage - Auto Shop

    I lurk on the site more than I post. I am not a very organized person nor am I very handy at woodworking. My garage is a place to work on cars. I know my garage will not be a show piece but I am trying to declutter and clean up so very little is on the floor. My goal is an organized shop...

    My 2-Car Porcelain Tile Install....

    I have been researching garage floor options for some time. I have been in my house for over 15 years. When i moved in the floor was painted so I cleaned it and repainted. It has held up well and is in need of a refresh. I must say I love the look of your floor and the ease with which is...

    My new Electric Ceiling Heater

    Above my garage is the master bedroom so doing a Natural Gas furnace was going to cause quite a bit of work for the chimney. My local laws state the top of the chimney must be above the highest peak on the house. So in my case electric was the best option.

    My new Electric Ceiling Heater

    I used a 4' BX Appliance whip and hard wired it in. It is 10 gauge with two hot and a ground. I think it was $14.00 from Menards. I am working in the garage today. It was 35 when I first turned the heater on and after two hours it is pushing 60. It actually has been off the majority of the...

    Need heating advice for garage

    I just installed an electric ceiling heater in my garage and am very happy with it. My garage is insulated so that will make a huge difference. I believe closing off the ceiling on yours will make the biggest improvement, without that it will be hard to keep warm. Here is the link to what I...
