Reading all this, i have to wonder what does BAT gain by interfering with an auction, especially one where it would stop bids from increasing, and ending the auction with a higher price. I have listed with BAT, they 100% tell you what the reserve should be, you can debate it a bit, but they...

I just picked up and put together my new wildfire lift, and after putting it up and down a bunch of times i noticed on one of the columns where the locks ride paint was chipping off, it wasn't excessive. But it was enough that i checked that the locks were working correctly, they were, but...

When i added the second floor, i lost the garage storage attic, i did add a nice storage space above the addition, but it’s only accessible though the great room, so not ideal with dirty garage stuff. I did end up building a nice storage loft in the garage, its 5.5’ deep and high, About...

got the garage door done, converted it to a full vertical lift, lot of work, more because i needed to move the shaft higher than the top of the window, if i kept it at the top of the tracks, it would be across the window.

Now with the lift installed, the first project i need to tackle is pulling the trans and tcase out of my Willys. So i can see the telescoping ****** jack being a nice addition. Is there one that the legs fold up? Where i want to store it the legs will stick out in the way, if they folded i...

In the great room above the garage there is a hidden door to some bonus storage we ended up with above the lift bay, we always knew there would be some storage up there, but didn’t think it would be very usable. Just ended up with over 6 feet of ceiling height, so it’s perfect. I can walk...

The addition is done, and the wife farmers porch as well. Now the fun part, putting the garage back together. it was amazing to see how much **** one can accumulate in 15 years, and how poorly organized you find out you were when you have to pull everything out of your garage and then put it...

Exacty, an 8’ door would work, i thought i might look odd, but seeing the ceiling is 10’, it might be okay.

something like that is where im leaning, only wrinkle is it needs to be insulated, as the storage space is not heated. I found a reasonably priced steel insulated access door, 36”x 48” i think that will go in the wall flush with the drywall. Then some type of cabinet like you said, or a...

Yea, it’s not ideal, but the storage space was bonus, so just need the best way to access it occasionally . No, that is where the storage area was kept away from the front, so a window could be put in the front wall

Can’t have stairs in that corner, corner fireplace goes there. Cant have any stairs the protrude into the high lift bay, could cause clearance issues with truck on lift, or even a car

I had another post about accessing this space from below, and that idea is out. I always had planned getting to this storage area from the great room as well, just looking for ideas how to access it. I could put a normal door, at floor level, would look the best, but it would only leave me...

In the process of an addition on top of my garage now, greatroom for the family, and a high ceiling bay with storage for me. Builder is doing the outside, ill finish the inside. Almost died when i went to get some strapping, $11 a piece for 16 footers, use to buy a bundle of 10 for that...
