I am adding to the driveway thought, I added some parking next to the shop. The shop is directly across from the house and the 3 car garage so my trailers are in the middle. Just added parking next to the shop so I can park them there out of the way.

So haven't done much to the shop lately but have been doing a lot in it. Replaced an engine in a friend's car and unfortunately some of my epoxy lifted and I have to get that fixed soon. But right now my truck is up on jack stands waiting for me to put it back together. To many projects right...

Built my corner floating bench between the 2 tool boxes now just need to level out the boxes so the tops are level with the bench too. Eventually I will mount the TV on the wall and paint the wood frame of the bench black. Sent from my moto z4 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Haven't posted in a bit but made some changes. Decided to get rid of the old kitchen cabinets and change them out with a couple more toll boxes and a large standing cabinet. I had to order the standing cabinet but picked up a couple boxes from Home depot. Also put up some new lights, 10 - 8ft...

Added the lights and started getting things moved back in as well as getting cabinets figured out.

Thank you it is coming together. I have gotten a little crazy as I started caulking the corners then some of the larger gaps where the boards don't meet flush for whatever reason. But that has turned into caulking even minor gaps but once it is done will look better. I will finish caulking...

So haven't update in a while but have made some good progress. All the plywood is up, finally, and I have it primered the wood with oil base primer. The down fall to sealing up the building with spray foam it takes forever to off gas. Also got the mini split installed, so far this things...

Not a lot of progress was helping a friend with his kitchen and after that was laid up for a bit with my back. By the time I was able to get back at the garage a bunch of other stuff got in the way. But have made some progress started hanging the plywood on the walls and painted the spray...

Made a bit more progress. Did some grinding on the floor and started the epoxy. Tomorrow will top coat it.
