Snow's gonna fly soon right? Hope you get closed up before long....Looking forward to the pics!

Sweet car. Had to google the Vector: http://www.madle.org/evector.htm Not many around....

Thanks bro. Those stairs are great. I really think a dedicated stair access will make a huge difference in using the loft/attic level. Thanks for posting the pics!

Do you have any pictures of the stairs going up to the loft? I'm building a similar garage (minus the dormers) and will have a fixed set of stairs in the back corner. I'm also 22 x30, so pretty much the same dimensions. Curious to see the stairs from bottom to top...Thanks!

I do believe so. They mine it in this area so there's lots of it around. It appears to be limestone gravel with screenings. (See the powder footprint in the dirt?) It sure did compact nicely and felt almost like concrete standing on it. I'll confirm what it is with the contractor. Here's...

Love the dormer! What's the pitch of the main roof (not dormer roof)? 8/12?

Here's a quick view of the progress thus far. It seems to have been really slow, since we've had some rain to contend with and all the work thus far has not been "above ground." Next week should be different. By ohiosiouxfan at 2011-11-04

7:45 am the concrete crew showed up ready to work. Good weather on tap for today and the next few days. By ohiosiouxfan at 2011-11-04 By ohiosiouxfan at 2011-11-04 By ohiosiouxfan at 2011-11-04 By ohiosiouxfan at 2011-11-04 By ohiosiouxfan at 2011-11-04 By ohiosiouxfan at...

Do you have a closer picture of the Coke machine. It looks great! I'm looking for an old working Coke cooler chest like the one below. There's a fair number of them on craigslist and some more expensive ones on ebay: By ohiosiouxfan at 2011-11-03 This one would be cool too, but would only...

Great size! What are you going to be putting in that bad boy?

Hi and thanks hpw. The forced air run is not intended heat and cool the garage completely, but rather the hope is that it will keep the temp in there above freezing in the winter. We have a gas run conduit to allow for a heat source in the garage to bring the temp up higher for when I have a...

After a week of on and off rain, we finally had a break to get some progress. The foundation blocks were setting and we decided to add drain tile around the entire garage before the back fill. The two nearest down spouts from the house came down right next to the front of the garage (where the...

Smart putting in power outlets higher up on the wall. Looking forward to the rest of the buildout.

Have any pics of the used doors? You could do a really nice frame it and I'm sure they'd be great..

They turned out really nice. The fact you did it yourself exponentially adds to the character. Great work!

Here's hoping your weather improves and you get dried out without any major damage.....

I think it's a great idea. Here's a link to a custom door site that sells what you're thinking about: http://www.millworkforless.com/garage-doors.htm

I have the Craftsman too. Works great. I gave one to my neighbor as a gift because I was always calling him to let him know his door was open!

Nice garage! Very similar to what I just started, although yours is a bit bigger. What are you doing for heat?

Great build into the hillside. Can't wait to see the finished result!
