    New Tandem 3 car garage

    I was surprised to see this come back up, but... It's coming together slowly. Still working on the organizational aspects of the garage to give me the room I need. HOA has not been a factor yet and I have had the car out on the back patio doing a few things to it. It helps that the president...

    Looking for an Asphalt Contractor in Southeastern Michigan

    Hey everyone, I am looking for recommendations and advice on replacing the asphalt driveway in my rental home in Clarkston MI. The driveway that is there was likely the original from 1972 and is mostly gravel now. I would guestimate 800 to 1000sq ft. Since I live in Washington State now and...

    Just Moved - New Garage, New Ideas, Inspiration

    Can you upload your model into the 3D warehouse and some of us who play with sketchup may take a shot at it. Also, put wheels on items like table saws to push them out of the way when not used.

    HDPE work bench top

    Don't mean to hijack this thread but I had a little freak out moment when I saw this picture. Something told me I knew where this was. I clicked off the thread and it was bugging me so I went back and looked again and then looked at where you were from. Kennewick. I grew up in Richland...

    The Marshall Garage Project

    Did I miss it in an earlier post, but is your garage door track mounted directly to the face of the cabinets and the support angles removed? If so that is a nice solution as I have been struggling with getting around that bracket for my cabinets. Never thought to remove it completely.

    Helmet+light(like Miner's Helmet) under yr Lift

    Get the bump cap like was posted earlier. work mandated us earlier this year to where them when we were in the factory, as well as all factory workers. They are basically a baseball cap with a plastic insert. You can get just the insert and get creative with other hats. I have seen people...

    Video: 2 bedrooms / 16 car garage house

    This home is probably owned by a 30 something Microsoft millionaire. In this area there are so many people who have gotten rich off Microsoft/Google/Amazon/game companies that this is probably their hobby house and their 14 million dollar house is down the block.

    Oil Change Port on CH Compressor

    I need some help on modifying the oil drain port on my Campbell Hausfeld VT6275 60 gal compressor. Stock it is just a cap into the compressor housing.

    Fire Safe Rehab

    Back in 2001 I bought a house in Michigan. When we closed and moved in I noticed the previous owner had left a file cabinet in the garage. When I looked at it my first impression was that it was just a crappy old file cabinet that he didn’t want anymore. But when I opened it I realized it was...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I finally got my old fire safe file cabinet cleaned up and painted. I bought a house 15 years ago and the previous owned decided it was too heavy to move and left it in the garage. He had bought it from a bank that was closing. The thing weighs several hundred pounds. At the previous house...

    20x21 2 car garage renovation

    Love the compressor room, and the furnace enclosure for that matter. Been thinking about doing the same. As for feet for the compressor, get some hockey pucks. You can drill through them and bolt into the floor or be lazy like me and just set you compressor on them. They haven't moved any...

    New Tandem 3 car garage

    The single space is 11 x 24 so yes I could have 2 doors in there, but the sliding panels are tripping my fancy right now. And yes it will be tight but the phase I am in right now is stripping, sanding and painting so that space will be perfect to keep that mess contained. I'm sure when...

    New Tandem 3 car garage

    Probably a little out of my budget!:lol_hitti I started with the shower fabric curtain idea and then thought that it would still get dusty into the main section. I am right in the middle of tearing down a 68 Mustang and will be sanding and sandblasting and eventually painting so the sealed...
