    My New (to me) 18x28 backyard workshop

    Thanks for all the kinds words. @Jpeezy - I picked up some thick rubber isolation pads that are now under the compressor (that picture was right after taking it off the trailer and putting it in the shop). I still need to bolt it down but it's in good shape now. @Lord vader - I did keep the...

    My New (to me) 18x28 backyard workshop

    Thanks for all the kind words, it is coming along nice hoping I'll have some time this weekend to work on it some more. The footers idea is a great one, I'll keep that in mind. I don't really 'need' a lift just something that would be neat to have and I'm not entirely sure the space it would...

    My New (to me) 18x28 backyard workshop

    I've spent quite a lot of time on this forum admiring others' great work spaces and dedicated workshops while living in a townhome with a fairly small 2 car garage. So earlier this spring when the wife and I decided it was time to buy a larger single family home I was pretty excited to at...

    The "Test House"... a 3 Stall Garage in Minnesota

    Harbor Freight 13 drawer tool boxes $271.99

    Are there any current coupons for the Top Box? I have the old finish lower, thinking I may put that under my workbench and pickup a new gloss top+bottom as I'm running out of room.

    Review: Harbor Freight US General 56" rolling cabinet

    Thanks for the heads up, I hate it when I miss out on deals like this by just a day or two. Going to cross my fingers that they go on sale for $699 again soon, bought a bunch of new tools recently and my 42" lower is quickly running out of room.

    Review: Harbor Freight US General 56" rolling cabinet

    Dang that coupon shows up as expired when I try and use it online now, was it specific to this box or a $/% off any item type coupon? My 42" HF box is getting close to full, was going to buy a second one but I'm tempted to upgrade to this larger box, especially if I could pick it up for $699...

    My experience with Rustoleum EPOXYShield (with photos)

    I would also be interested in knowing what if any prep beyond sweeping/mopping you may have done prior to laying the floor down, I'm looking to do the same to my garage which is in similar condition to yours (only 4-5 months old).
