I don't really know what the cost would have been. Everything used to build it was extra stuff we had laying around the shop (less the plywood, thats new) If I had to guess, maybe $1000 (+/- $200). The columns are HSS4x4x1/4", the beams are W6x9, and the joists are 10" deep. If you go to a...

I too have this lift. Bought it at the store in Atlanta. Good people. All of my research concluded it was a good deal for a brand new lift. I have yet to install it, because I don't know where I am going to put it yet.....

Re: What did you do "IN" your garage today? Yes, I felt the same way looking at all the space above. I alreadt have about 25% of it full. I got a buddy bringing me some shelves for it. The shop is 30' wide X 32' deep and the peak is almost 18'. The loft is 16' longX8' wide. I think I...

Thank you. I fear it will fill up fast. I have LOTS of tools to put in it, and I still have to put the lift up. Ill make it work.:headscrat

Nice score:drool::thumbup:

I am not a fan of Ryobi, although I know many people with their tools that are very happy with them. I just personally don't care for them. Although this is a cool concept, I am not a fan of "all-in-one", just feels like if one thing breaks, it would all go out at once....

Or just use steel.:pimpflash

Got the mezzanine up a few days ago... forgot to post pics.

Got the front almost finished. Check out my build thread for more pics.

Had the first project in the shop too. Battery died, so I replaced it with a lawn and garden battery. Almost double the speed, and lasts all day long!!! I would have not picked a mustang, but the neighbors gave it to us, and she loves it, so that's all that matters.

Also decided while the shop was fairly empty, I would put up a mezzanine with some extra steel we had laying around the shop. Also had to start moving some things in the shop to make room in the garage.

Here are a few pics from the past few days.

So here is how I had to leave it a few weeks ago. I have been extremely busy with work, and have not had time to work on it, except for the past few days.
