    ideal wallboard for new garage

    My apologies if not explained clearly. The "shared" wall is already drywalled. I was thinking about the rest in luan, or something. I agree with wnstwolf. I don't think the 1/4" Luan will lay flat. Like paneling, it will look wavy.

    ideal wallboard for new garage

    Got a new 3-car garage that needs finishing. It's studded out and drywalled on one side (where it's connected to the house. I need to do this on a SMALL budget. After measuring, I decided I would need 16 sheets of 4'x8'x10' wallboard. My question is: Do I use drywall, knowing it will get...

    floor drains

    I've got a floor drain in my garage. Just like Willy, it drains out the back. But I live in out in farm country. It's allowed. The reason they don't want them in residential areas is because it would drain into the sewer. The thought is people would dump all their fluids down there, such as...

    Hello! Interested what you all think of my new garage addition.

    I get the impression Bob is working on something. He's been promissing something for weeks. Also, he does have a message blaming Midlife. If it was down all together, we wouldn't even get that much. Other times when it's been down, I got error messages. Last time this happened, I suggested...

    Hello! Interested what you all think of my new garage addition.

    Hi Phil, Nice to hear from you. The garage is looking great. BTW, what other boards are the VMF regulars on? I've felt kind of stranded. Any talk on when we'll be back on the air?

    Name Your Garage!

    Mine is called "The Shed" It's my own little way of downplaying the gobs of money I spent putting it up.

    Couldn't afford Lista Cabinets, so -

    HOLY ****! I'd be too intimidated to use those. THey look like they belong in a hospital or a fancy kitchen in a restaurant. On second thought, I could use those most easily. PLANS????

    Big Garage leading to Big Problem with neighbor

    You could always clean and bottle it. Have you seen how much they're getting for a bottle of water these days? It's MUCH worse than gas prices. Nobody complains about bottled water prices though. Hell, beer's cheaper. Well, maybe just the beer I buy. Seriously, there must be a logical way...

    You helped him scrub his garage floor for 4-1/2 hours? Sounds like he has a pretty damn good neighbor! Way to go!
