Couldn't find anything for under $1200, built this for $350.

I started this project last September. Ending up having shoulder surgery so it took longer than planned. The first picture is what it looked like last year, I had done a little demo work. I screwed the decking on the small balcony from the bottom so there are no visible fasteners. I still...

I have three man door lights that I need to install the boxes for. Do I just push the wire back inside the hole and use a hole saw to cut it out? Is there a trick so I don’t ruin the wire? What size hole saw? What kind of box? I know I could do some research and find out but I’m lazy.

Started moving my bench and cabinets into my new addition. The first pic is the bench before the addition. All the stuff in the middle of the addition came out of the cabinets. The two pics are taken from the same spot in the garage. I have a couple more cabinets to move, had shoulder...

Had Rotator Cuff repair so my friends came over and helped me install the Mitsubishi mini splits I bought for the living area above my garage addition. All I have to do is hook up the power, I have a guy that will test and evacuate it. I had planned on putting the outside unit on the ground...

Here’s a before and after picture of my bench. I’m in the middle of taping the new addition to my attached garage and living space above it. The problem is I have to go in next week for rotator cuff repair of my shoulder. I’ll now be depending on friends to help me finish the inside of the...

I’m in the middle of a two story addition. The first floor is a 30x26 addition to a 26x26 existing garage and the second story is living space. I'm installing Mitsubishi mini splits (ductless system) for the living area (two zones). Should I install a third zone in the new garage addition...

I'm doing a new addition to the garage and house. Installed a new panel today. My neighbor’s son who is an electrician did the job for $650 which is time and material. He is also dealing with the permit. Pictures are the old panel and the new. I think I got a good deal.

Poured the pad for my garage/ house (second story) addition today. My 26'x26' attached garage will now be 56'x26'.

Finally broke ground on our new addition to the garage and a second story above it. Garage will be 55x26 minus the stairs. I’m having a builder do the concrete work, framing and sheathing. I will be finishing the rest. Really looking forward to the additional room in the garage. The wall in...

After mulling over your opinions on the prior thread, here are my new plans. I axed the laundry and added a shower to the bathroom on the second floor. Here is the original thread: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=208178

My existing attached garage is 26'X26', will be adding on another 30'X26' and a second floor the same size. In the end the garage will be 26X56 minus the laundry room and stars to the second story. I did add a door next to the laundry room to the outside. Am I missing anything? Everything...

Ok, I have an attached garage that is 25x26, I want to add onto it and also a second floor above it which will be living space. I have options, I can add up to 35x25 onto the garage and have the same size living space above it. This would be the easiest because all I would have to do is remove...

I need a new chuck for my drill press, obviously I want to order the right chuck. Do these tapers come in different sizes or will most 5/8 chucks work on this taper?

I made this gate that opens using a regular garage door opener. The cool thing is you can still open it manually. It has a string that opens the latch when the opener is activated. It's been in operation for over 10 years, I did build a new gate last summer. I got the opener form a friend...
