Well the garage is effectively a mess again. Before finishing the painting and stripes on the wall, I started another project (always my downfall :lol_hitti I was going to resurface my deck and that ended up meaning- I built a new deck and ran a 240v line and put in a hot tub. Well at least I...

E-tek, I agree its in good fun! I saw your page and send my congrats on a great garage, a nice project car collection, and stunning helper :thumbup: My only current restoration job (besides the house) is the old GS. Not much antique value but plenty of sentimental value as it was my first...

I must agree I am Phyched to have lights. More light than I could have imagined. The bikes are an '03 Suzuki V-strom 1000, a 1978 GS 750, and a '07 Hyosung Avitar. More paint and stripes next. Then the wall cabinets and schwag. Still debating on the floor epoxy....

Finally, The electrical is complete! :bounce: It has been a year last Feb since the rough electrical was done. I didn't think that the electrician was going to remember me (or the circuit) for that matter with all the 3 and 4 way switches! After some McGiver testing to recall what went...

Well I can't speak to E-tek's honey. We're not competing, but all I can say is that I'm happy with my help. Since I bought my house I've had one thing or another torn apart. Not only does she tolerate it, but she helps me with the work. We've insulated the attic after hunting the flying...

I will look up the costs of the attic trusses. They cost more because of the 2x8 & 2x10 construction. However they are rated for light residential, so a bedroom or the like is acceptable. The company is in Maine called "Wood Structures Inc". They are a great company to work with. As...

CB804, That is great. :thumbup: For the cost and my time and sanity, the vinyl might be the trick. Any cons you can think of? Did you have trouble with stretching or bubbling of the materials? What grade did you buy. The standard seems reasonable. Thanks to all for the painting tips. I...

Thanks for the feedback. I'm considering both angles. The wife finished the 2nd coat of gray today while I put onthe 2nd coat of ceiling paint. Next weekend the lights go up and hopefully the final electrical will be complete. Nova S4: That is exactly what I'm looking for but in Black. I'm...

Insulting...insulating... "I'd like to buy a vowel" :)

My last photos in "My add-on" went up to the point of insulating the walls. Well, the drywall is done and I've painted the walls. Half white and half gray (I know- very original):) I've added a couple photos of the toys waiting to move in. I'd like to reproduce the black strip from the...

These shots show the insulation and the near-final results (outside at least) Thanks to Kevin54 for sharing the secrets to attachments! :bowdown:

I like 'em. I am installing 3- 16' rows of T-8s. (doubled up 8 footers). $42 each at HD. It was on the recommendation of my electrician. Each assembly has 4 -4' tubes, so I'll have a total of 24 bulbs. I figure you'll be able to see the place from space :bounce: The only concern I have is...

I keep startring projects and shee keeps me on budget and makes sure they get done befire I start the next one. I'm not exactly sure how to insert pics like the rest of the gang here, but here are a couple more (including the help) :-)

Looking good! Now you'll be able to find whatever you are looking for ;-) I spent the day in 100% humidity painting my ceiling so I can get the lights up. I've been working my project on floor lamps for WAY too long. What is the project car you got going there? T-
