    Walking on Racedeck/Motofloor

    It has a hollow and loose sound to it. I wouldn't say it feels that way though. I've gotten used to it and don't notice it much anymore. It sure beats the concrete that it is covering. Richard

    Tiles on sale at Sears, anyone try these?

    No clacking. They are a fairly soft foam-like material.

    Horsepower TV floor

    I could swear that I read somewhere that those tiles were VCT. Can't remember where I saw it (or for sure that I did see it).

    Tiles on sale at Sears, anyone try these?

    I think that is the pad I bought from Sears quite awhile ago. Okay for an anti-fatigue mat at the work bench like JMURiz said. Because of the light gray color it does show dirt. I wouldn't park a car on it. Richard

    Plastic Pegboard Standoffs

    I used those rubber things on one section of painted pegboard from Lowes. I am pretty sure that the rubber spacers were also from Lowes - from the area where the hangers are. If we are talking about the same plastic pre-painted pegboard you should not have to paint it. However, if I had to do...

    car parking ???

    I found a neat twist on the old tennis ball trick at Lowes the other day. It has a ball and string but rather than always hanging there (in the way most of the time), it only drops down when the garage door is open. When you close the garage door the ball is pulled up to the ceiling. The...

    Dimensions for my New Garage

    I am certainly no expert in construction, but it seems to me that it would be almost as cheap to make that workshop match the width of your larger garage and the depth of your smaller garage. You will need the same amount of exterior wall in either case but you will end up with more square...

    How do you guys stores wheels?

    In the Global Industrial catalog I noticed two possible tire storage solutions. The first was shelving specifically designed for the purpose. Sorry, but I don't have the catalog with me or I'd give you the page. The other is the type of dolly designed to be put under a large trash container...

    Shop phone

    "That Sears phone is the same as sold in Home Depot. Hows the range ? the quality ? I looked at it online and saw some dissappointed reviews but it does look cool. Function is key, durability but it would be nice to have a cool looking phone too." I have an attached garage so I never really...
