Nice M3! What size is your garage and the adjoining workshop area?

Wow! This is a fascinating project... thanks for sharing! Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk

So I had a contractor come out and what he recommends is excavating and only removing the top of the old foundation (stem wall) to the required depth for the new slab. The new floating pad would then sit on undisturbed ground and/or whatever old concrete remained. I questioned this at first...

Is that some sort of carved wooden face thing on the side of your house? It looks kind of neat.

Sorry to hear that! If a development is proposed I'd recommend attending all public meetings and even speaking at your town council in opposition of any proposal that doesn't fit the neighbourhood "vibe". Try and can get some neighbours onside as well. Good luck. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using...

Nice vette collection!

I'll be interested to see how things go!

Good point... Hadn't really thought of that. +1 propane

Winter is coming to an end here, but I'm looking at options for heating a small detached one car garage (under 300 sq ft) next season. I don't intend to heat the garage all the time, only looking to heat things up for the handful of times I may end up working in the garage over the winter...

Looks like you did a tear down by hand... I might be doing the same this summer. How long did that take and how did you get the roof trusses down?

Shout out from another 944 owner! :3gears:

Re: My (New) Neighbors Probably Hate Me...But That's Okay - My “Dream” Garage Build This is fantastic! I'm on a 40' lot in an urban area so I can totally relate. Subscribed!

Wow, great looking garage(s)! Going a bit off topic here... Couldn't help but notice you said you work with software in the healthcare industry. Mind if I ask what type of software? Some sort of medical specific software, or like an ERP? Just wondering as I'm in the same line of work...

Basement is preferred I believe. If you keep it in your garage make sure you keep any power tools elsewhere or locked up. And find some way to regulate the humidity. Check out this website... they cover all sorts of safe related topics in great detail...
