    New Barn Design- Zoning Board Meeting Tomorrow

    May help to show where this outbuilding is in relation to your neighbors buildings relative to the centerline of the road. If you're going to remain not as close to the road than the neighbors, then the zoning board will want to know this. Draw a line in your sketch of neighbors proximity to the...

    Making the best out of a one car garage

    It's been a while since I've been on this forum. Just wanted to say hi to a fellow VW guy, and I like what you have put together in your shop. Now let's see it in use and do sum werk. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Next steps will involve making both bays available, building shelves in the garden shed, window shopping for a R8, install the cabinets and countertops (finally), and tackle the compressor enclosure and run the lines. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Painting drywall

    I was spurred on by finding 2 full gallon cans of Zinzer, and a $30 5gal. oopsie at Lowe's of a beige eggshell. Onto the other side now. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk

    Next, the bases. Might be doing this in reverse order, but I feel good at this stopping point. Off to Prison City for the afternoon. I hope they have a Mass Riot waiting for me. Sent from my VS987 using Tapatalk

    Cupboards are going in. I plan on notching the back-bottom to accommodate the block at the floor. I picked up some treated deck boards to make frames for underneath so I can level the base cabinets. Picked up some tools at a garage sale this morning. Sent from my VS987 using Tapatalk

    Question. In the last pic I posted, the stick wall sits on a short CMU 'toekick'. It sticks out about 1.5". What can I do to the base cabinets (Lowe's pre-manufactured) to make them sit flush? Do I need to carry the dimension up to the top of the backsplash by furring out the wall for this to...

    Thanks for the input. Sometimes I say things, that only make sense after I say them. Got bored during lunch and had taken measurements this past weekend. I have some car guys/gals in-house to see what I can/should do structurally, if I can vault the space, and have the ovhd door rise with the...
