Finally finishing up the rest of the details. Got the winch bolted to the floor and tested it out. It works great and easily pulls a car in from outside. My buddy wanted his brakes done on his wifes car so I figured that would be a good first test car for the lift rather than the Rx-7...

I can't believe it took that long for someone to flame on me here. I've used PVC for the past 15 years without any issues. I'm not running more than 100psi and it is all protected behind my workbench in my garage which is climate controlled. If I ever have issues I'm sure I might think...

I picked it up at Home Depot. It was a closeout and I think I got the last of it. I got real lucky finding it. It was so cheap I couldn't pass it up. With the help of my brother we were able to get this 400lb compressor down to the basement in it's final resting place. The garage is finally...

I'm on the north side of Cincy.

I'm the other way in Ohio.

Today I started working on the TV, Audio and Internet cabling and install. I own a Home Theater company so I always have something laying around. This is nothing special at all and basically free to me except for the Sonos ZP90. I replaced my bedroom TV a few weeks ago and figured this would...

Surprisingly I didn't see your thread until I had bought most of my stuff. I did however steal your bench top idea. It is my favorite find on this forum so far. Your garage is amazing. I can't compete with that no matter what I do.

I'd like a roll up door but I haven't seen one that looks nice for the front of a house. I am however going to have the tracks raised around 18" for better clearance. As far as the height goes I have just under 11ft. The lift will go as high as 80" without pad adapters. I mainly build and sell...

Got the aluminum trim on the bench today. It turned out great.

I have a total of 8 T8 bulbs in my 20x22 garage with 11ft ceilings. It gets very bright and I love the light quality that they output.

Haha. All from the proceeds of selling the SwimSpa.

Picked up new drill press and put the blast cabinet together. Got the Press put together. Stood up a lift post. That sucker was heavy. Got both of them in place and lined up. Finished up the night with all the hydraulic lines and support cables installed. All thats left to...

First off this forum is great. I'm sure I'll get lots of great ideas here. Well the time has come to take things to the next level. I've been borrowing garages for the past 2 years and it's getting old. I decided to convert my current 2 car garage into a small but functional shop. The swimspa...
