Man, it's been a while! I've been really busy so I haven't updated this. I took a few pics the other day so I could update. I'll add details as I have time -thanks for looking!

Thanks for the compliments everyone. My next step is getting things hung up on the walls and putting my stuff into the cabinets.

I bought it from Lowes. It was about $13 for a 2x8 sheet. I went up about 40" from the floor so I easily got 2 pieces out of each sheet. I used 19 sheets total.

I really wish I did. I would like to have some for touch ups here and there. I was sloppy and painted over the color label. I know it was a Behr color, but that's about it. If I figure it out, I'll let you know.

I had a pretty productive weekend. I was finally able to hang my Gladiator cabinets. It was a fiasco trying to get undamaged cabinets. Even these had minor damage but I put them up in an order that would hide the damage. I used 1x4s to hang these to so I could put them right next to each...

My wife helped me paint the garage last weekend. I had some Behr paint leftover from my last garage so I used that. The bottom is getting a wainscoting, possibly corrugated galvanized metal. I also buttoned up the outlets that I had added. I have added a 60 amp sub panel with room for a...

I don't see the pics in #3.

I used 2 gallons and got about 1/2 way done. It covers really well, I think I'll only need 1 coat. I ended up using 4 gallons for around 725 sq. ft. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks Justbummin1! FTWing riders, I picked up 4 of the welded gladiator wall cabinets when they were on sale for $99. I'll start with those and see what else I need. I haven't decided on the bench yet, but I'll need something sturdy that I can mount a vice to. I am thinking of a floating shelf...

Here is the drywall done and ready for paint. The ceiling is textured and will be painted the same color as the walls. I'm thinking a light gray. Edit: I changed my mind and am using ceiling paint. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I took down the drywall that didn't have insulation behind it which was basically all the walls that didn't share with the house. Then I added a sub panel and outlets. Next was insulation and plastic for a vapor barrier. Kinda looks like one of Dexters kill rooms. Sent from my iPhone using...

As a bonus, the previous owner left the Arians snowblower. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've always wanted a 3 car garage so when we were looking for a new house this past winter that was my only requirement. My wife had her own of course. Here it is the day we moved in.

Hi everybody, I've been a member for a while but never introduced myself. My name is Mike and I was introduced to GJ by a coworker. I recently bought a house with a 3 car garage and this forum has been great for ideas. I'll be sure to start a thread with the details. Thanks for the great forum!
