okay... Thanks for the encouragement, I'll have to look around on youtube. hahahaha I guess my old "plan" was just to stick them in the garage and then figure out what I could do with whatever cabinets I had... then I'd mount some, get rid of some, whatever... the new scenario feels like...

It's probably what I'll end up doing... and I'm sure you're right about me changing my mind 12 times :bounce:

What's funny is that they didn't go demolition crazy or use a sledge to remove them... it's just that there was a misunderstanding about whether the cabinets be saved and reused... when they scheduled a pickup of all the trash, they hauled the cabinets out as well. It was a rainy day and by the...

I have never insulated or done drywall at all. The studs are spaced like 23" +/- an inch it seems... is this normal for an old garage? After having electrical routed through the studs, do I just basically stuff insulation in there, add a vapor barrier, and then put drywall over it?

Yeah, exactly - I think it makes a lot of sense to get the cabinets now either way, but I was just thinking that once they're mounted & loaded up my motivation to insulate/drywall is going to plummet.

I do have a tendency to overthink things - you're right about that Yeah - good call... better to take the time and get it "just right" Yeah.. I think it's probably best to get them while it's still fresh on his mind - not sure he'll remember his mistake/offer in the summer Drawers on both...

Hi all, I just moved into a new (to me) house a couple weeks ago and I have an unfinished garage (not insulated, no drywall). We are re-doing the kitchen in the house and I planned to re-use some of the existing cabinets in the garage... but the kitchen company destroyed them when doing demo...

Hi all, just writing to let you know that I'm willing to sell this setup for a good price. If you're in the DC/MD/VA area and are interested, get in touch with me (via PM on this site or at [email protected]) - I'm moving in two weeks and don't need to bring it with me. The opener is...

Thanks for the suggestion! There are 2 outlets... one behind the toolbox (neon clock is plugged in currently), and one to the left of the shop vac (it's brown, hard to see) I plan mostly on detailing the car and taking on generally small-scale projects such as refinishing the tops of some...

Hi all, I now have a rental house with a single car detached garage. I want to make cost effective and non-permanent modifications to it so that I can enjoy it a little more while I live here. I've already done the following: - shop vac / general cleaning of garage - installed an automatic...

That stinks, man... sorry to hear it.

Video: Installed an Automatic Carriage Door Opener Hey all, Been lurking around the site for a while but haven't posted until now (I used to live in a condo). Long story short, I ended up with a 1 car garage in Northern Virginia that has carriage doors on it. My dad came up to visit a few...

Maybe it's time for a shorter truck :evil:
