How did you add the insulation to your garage door? Did you glue it on? Thanks.

Are you going to insulate the garage? It would be kinda cool to put some kinda insulation on the outside of the garage wall before you put up the siding. That way you could possibly keep the interior walls with the cool looking wood with no insulation covering it up. Just my thoughts. Just kind...

Great job so far. I'm looking forward to your posts as you make progress. I think it is an interesting challenge as to how to keep the character the of the old building but yet make it comfortable and modern.

Love that red Donzi! Yes, indeed.

Re: The Suburban German 2 Car Garage Please don't take this wrong but when I started reading your thread I was thinking your house was in Germany. Then I saw the New York license plate and it all dawned on me. Grin. I too think you should start at the source of the problem leak, the vent on...

This is a a wonderful thread. It's great see real craftsmanship being exercised. I also watched your video on your photography web site. I often wondered how those street shots of vehicles were done on city streets for advertising and movies. It's nice to see that you have your Dad...

Looks like you are going to have a great garage. Are you going to put an air conditioner in it? A window unit would probably work just fine. I've also seen where some people have used motel units that have both a heater and an air conditioner. Please keep posting your progress.

This is a great thread. Please keep up the good work. I looked up the weather in Orenburg and it is 32 degrees F. It is 39 degrees in Houston Texas and we are dying! I looked up Orenburg and it appears that the city is the gateway to the gigantic East, right? I like your approach to your...

Great work! Your approach to aesthetics reminds me somewhat of Von Dutch and the Kustom Kulture in Los Angeles. Please keep posting. This is a wonderful thread.

Real nice transformation of the exterior of your garage. Anymore plans for it? Great vehicles too. I've got a 2011 Ford f-150 stx but an extended cab not the crew cab. Still trying to make room in my garage to park it. Grin. Please keep posting as you progress.

Great job on your garage! You have a fine eye for memorabilia also. Please keep up the good work.

Falstaff was definitely a working class brew. I remember back in the day before aluminum cans sometimes your cans would be a little bit rusty when you bought a case. Didn't hurt the beer any. But we weren't beer connoisseurs like a lotta people are today. St Louis has a lot going on for for it...

You need a vintage Greisedieck sign! If such a thing even exists anymore...... you've got a great shop.

That is a small space. You've got some work to do. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

I must say that you have an impressive amount of gear, tools and equipment acquired for someone who is only in their twenties. You have done a great job so far on your garage. I have been thinking lately about the essential woodworking equipment that anyone needs to do modern woodworking tasks...
