Wow, all I can say is that you have an awesome shop and great taste. Love the work on the cars and love the brewing station. Always loved the Darts, and it looks like you have an awesome project there. Very jealous of the rotisserie and the amount of space that you have to work with. Is that...

Thanks for the LED suggestion jo. I will have to look into that further. Seems a lot cheaper than what I have been seeing in HD or Lowes. To be honest, I have never heard of or seen colored floor sealer, but it looks really nice. Is the process similar to an epoxy coating? Would I have to...

Well, everything was ready for 8am this morning when the concrete truck was set to come. Thankfully the truck was right on time and we were able to start work right at 8: 20160820_074849[1] by Stephen Digiorgio, on Flickr I wish I had more pictures of the overall process, but as many of you...

Ok so I have not posted an update in a while because I wanted to wait for something worth posting. I have a new floor!!! :D:D Pictures are pretty self explanatory so I will just post a few pictures that document the majority of the progress. Feel free to ask any questions: Was able to borrow...

Thanks for the idea, I will probably break the wiring down into smaller jobs to make it easier to pay for. I would like this guy to do the electrical because I know his work and I know I will not be disappointed when he is done. I guess I also forgot to mention that the price included a new...

Ahh ok only rebar to the foundation if the concrete blocks were only on top of the slab and not a footing. Each outlet will be a 4 socket box. I don't even know where I am going to put my workbench yet haha. I would like to put it on the back wall to keep the sides clean, but since it is only...

That was all of the info for the new floor project, but I also decided to take a break from that and take a look at the electrical aspect of this build. Had an electrician come over and help me plan out how we were going to go about everything. He had some good ideas. Anyways, I decided to...

Ok little bit of an update to share with you guys. I have been busy trying to get stuff done whenever I have the spare time at night or on the weekends. First thing was that my Graco airless paint gun came when expected...except that the UPS man delivered it to a house 3 blocks away from mine...

I am going to take some closer pictures today to post up here for your opinion if you dont mind. I am not too sure but I think that they poured the pad and then started building on top of that. The only reason I say that is because they way it is cracking around the sides makes it look like it...

I think that I would have to agree with you on this one, and it is definitely the way I am leaning on this. I have a really good friend who owns a asphalt and brick laying company, so I can definitely borrow the necessary tools to make the job go smoothly. I really don't like to ask people for...

Ok and now is the first time that I am really looking for some help and advice from you guys (get used to that hahah). I had originally planned to leave the floor of the garage alone for the time being because quite frankly, I just didnt want to bother with it right now. I was going to cut...

Made a small amount of progress but nothing exciting. I patched all of the holes in the garage walls and started to blend them in so they will be less noticeable when I paint. No doubt in my mind that I will be able to see some of the patches through the paint, but I couldnt live with all of...

M-technik-3 You are not the first person to suggest that, and it is a very good idea, but im afraid it is a little bit out of my skill level/comfort zone. Is this easier than I think it is? I would assume I would have to reinforce the roof and tie it together before jacking it up, but then...

BBChevro Thanks for looking! I hope to keep the progress coming in the beginning so people have something to read. I absolutely love what Denwood did with his storage cabinets in his garage. To be completely honest, I do not have all that much stuff that needs to be stored in the garage...

First order of business was to bust out the pressure washer and blast the 50 years of dust and cobwebs out of this thing so I could get it ready for paint. I dont plan on doing anything with the concrete right now because it is in terrible shape, but I figured it wouldnt hurt to throw some...
