So just to get this straight, your ONLY insulation in your building is the 3/4" P2000 "wallboard" other than the R13 insulation you have behind the OSB on the lower portion of the walls? If so, that is impressive. However the logic of the majority of heat loss being due to air infiltration and...

I'm guessing he has a big glue-lam or something under the insulation at the top of that opening, especially looking at the large number of jack studs beside the "filler" area. Otherwise that is a lot of jack studs supporting that insulation! Also, holy electrical outlet overkill Batman! That...

This is a pretty attractive solution. I recently moved, and have a 20W x 22D attached 2 car. I have an older Benwil 2 post lift in the garage at my old house (now being rented). I have thought about moving it, but my current garage is not as conducive to permanent placement of the lift. I...

I knew as soon as I saw the pictures that it was in York, and I have a vague memory of driving by it somewhere over in the west york area just north of Market street perhaps? I grew up in that area and remember driving by that place! Good luck to you, it looks like a great find, and a lot of...

I don't personally know enough about my build yet to give specifics, so I am working on ideas, and thoughts, and lists of "gotta have", "like to have", "maybe", and don't really need type things. There is so much stuff to sift thru, and so many past builds that I don't have any idea how I could...

I am relatively new to this forum, just been lurking on and off for a while. My wife and I were recently lucky enough to purchase a property with a nice house and plenty of land. We are hoping, in the next few years, to build a large garage/workshop on the property, reserving the 2 car...

Quick question on your garage, what is the size of the primary "working" bay that you show? I am getting ready to refurbish and set up my lift in my "regular" 2 car garage, and then enclose a screened in porch off the back of the garage as a workshop (about 15x21), but I may eventually knock...

I have a question about this. I am new to the forum, but have been a closet garage fanatic for a while! I have 10' ceilings in my garage, and recently stole some track sections out of my neighbors trash when they put new doors in. I cut sections and raised my tracks up so that at the minimum...
