    Thanks guys. It sure brings a smile to my face everytime I walk in to grab a beer outta the fridge :-) Still lots of odds and ends to tidy up but I'm glad all the bull work and big purchases are done.

    Thanks! Looks like it's rolling across the finish line :-) I was going to wait until spring... But I fell into a few bucks and decided to just get it done before winter hits. Next on the agenda is a bigass work bench and storage cabinets. Right now my tools are all piled up in my shed and its...

    Racedeck flooring all finished up. Love the look of the free-flow tiles!

    I actually live within walking distance of the reservoir here in Calgary (15 min walk or so). But I'm WAY up on top of the hill so I was in absolutely no danger thank god. However, I had friends and their little baby come stay at my place last weekend because they had been evacuated. Flood...

    Storage cabinets / work bench will run along the side wall where the fridge is from front to back. I'll build those myself. Racedeck flooring next spring (giving my back and wallet a break) Its been a busy enough 2013 already, plus I'm getting married soon. As far as the racedeck pattern, I...

    Frog tape and a laser level. Make sure you press down on the tape so paint doesn't bleed through

    Still chipping away at my space. Painted and Striped! Switches, outlets, pot lights, projector/screen and some of my garage "decor" went up.

    Sorry I can't help you on this one. I'm no expert that's for sure. I don't plan on heating the garage unless I'm out there working. Calgary gets fairly mild winters. With only a few real weeks of dead cold. Even with an insulated garage door that furnace would run steady on the really cold days...

    Paint plans are similar to my second garage. I will be adding the racing stripes once again. But this time, on the main "feature" wall at the front, I will be painting a square box for which a roof mounted projector will shoot into (pre-wired HDMI drop in the ceiling.) Think drive-in movie...

    The hood is a Shelby cs6. Also seen on the hertz mustangs. Best looking hood IMO but it rubs on my strut tower brace. So if I was to do it again, I would probably go with something else.
