I work on cars so planning on installing 2 lifts and gonna try and keep the top for a man cave.

I installed some furring strips on the ceiling so I don't have saggy sheetrock overtime. I am going to install 5/8 on the ceiling and 1/2 on the walls. Had some help from my dad again on hanging the walls. Luckily wasn't too bad. The ceiling on the other hand sucked. With very close to 14...

Well it has been a long time since I have updated my current project. A lot has gone on since the last posting. I got the roof on. After carrying only one bundle of shingles up the ladder I threw in the towel and hired a couple friends to do the job. Wired up the whole garage with some...

My 2 shop dogs the one is a little CRANKY!!!!

I installed about 1200 feet of 1/2 inch tubing on top of 1inch insulation. Divided up into 4 circuits with most loops 12 inches apart except in front of door and they are 8 inches. Im located in NC so not that cold for long but I don't like working in the cold.

Pouring the slab Regraded the front of the garage so I had a level pad in front

Well I started my build earlier this year, but finally making some time to post about it. I am new to the forum but I have been looking here for ideas for the past couple years. Decided to go with a 32x40 stick built garage. Went with 10 foot studs and 4 courses of block to try and get to 14...
