So I’m wanting to make use of the 18’ ceilings on the one side of my shop. I also wanted a more robust way of getting to my loft (currently using a ships ladder) I’m planning the addition of a bathroom in the back corner so I was thinking I could build it such that I could use the ceiling as...

Alright through all the searching and reading and phone calls and quotes... I think I have it down to three lifts. Rotary SPOA10... specifically the extended height version with Trio arms w/ truck adapters in black : $6,662 installed BendPak XPR-10AXLS the extended height version with...

So working on the garage wall finishing I pulled away all of the garage door wiring as well as my heater thermostat wiring. I’m thinking the most cost effective way to “hide” the wiring is to put them inside of conduit and paint match it to the walls and ceiling to blend it in. Now that said...

So with me clearing out the garage to get the floors coated and the walls painted I figured it was time to show everyone what I’ve been working on over the past couple of years. Many of you gave a lot of good insight when I was designing our house and doing the garage layout so I’m quite...

Hi guys so I’ve got a few contractors coming in to quote cleaning up my drywall install from my home builder in the garage to make it ready to paint and then painting it as well. The whole garage as of right now is planned to be a light gray on the side walls and then smooth white ceilings...

So I built my garage with the front half sloped to drains in front of each of the garage doors. I did this to allow the snow, ice, and other garbage to melt off the cars and not puddle in the bays. I also wanted the ability to rinse off the salt and grime from our MN roads during the winter...

I think I finally found a lot to build my house. It's a 1 acre lot, but only the first .25 acre is build-able. We had a larger setback than what i was expecting, but I think I was able to make it work. I wanted to have a dedicated shop area in the back and still attached to house, but with...

Alright I'm in the design phase of our new house, but the biggest portion of it that I'm focused on is the shop garage space. We've been looking for a lot for quite some time to give us the space we want and we've finally found one within the cities, but it does come with some challenges...
