    Electrical outlets every 4 feet and waist high. Best money I spent.

    That would be the problem and cars tying up bays with no income.

    Planning: Ceiling and insulation for outbuilding

    The problem you will have with OSB and 1/4 inch plywood here in GA (I am near Augusta) is warping from heat and humidity.

    Just ordered a wall-mounted tire rack (build vs. buy)

    Now that my pit crew is off at school I need a Motive also. Rd ATL can hit kill you speeds in a C5Z - but it is a blast!

    Hanging up a punching bag?

    You will need to reinforce the ceiling no matter what. Getting it thru the ceiling may take some doing and may impact fire code (chimney effect)
