Does this look right? The side, silver bar looks like it was added on, but I’m not an expert. Would this be worth picking up for $30? Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Has anyone mentioned the slow warm up to full brightness and the long time restrike in case of a power blip? You will have lots of light, as long as you can wait 5-10 minutes for it. That used to be OK for gyms and warehouses that was opened up and left on for multi hours, but not a great...

Coming from the auto detailing hobby, the mindset is use the minimum it takes to achieve the maximum results. Of course the wire wheel is minimal effort and maximum results, so I guess that doesn’t translate like it should.... I’m not a tool collector, at least not yet. But I don’t want to do...

Thanks. I have had a couple that were stiff or frozen. I opened up one that has a C-clip and sprayed some PB Blaster in it and everything broke free. The other one that I couldn’t open, I sprayed PB Blaster at the cracks and let it sit overnight. It broke free too. I followed up with some...

I recently inherited tools from my father's barn. He passed away 19 years ago and I just left everything until my mother's passing and now I'm going through the 50 years of accumulation. Please forgive me as I'm sure it's been asked a million times... Within the accumulation of tools are a...

Try wraping it in a plastic grocery bag. That seems to work whenever shops have had trouble with my cards.

Spend a little money and paint the walls and ceiling. Ceiling white semi-gloss and a light colored semi-gloss on the walls. It will greatly improve your light in there. Put fixtures another side of the garage door openers will be better than directly over the door as you have. Also putting a...

That layout will work OK, it really depends on what your intentions are for your garage and only you can make that decision. The two fixtures in front of the garage doors will be blocked when your doors are up. If you do most of your work with the doors closed, they'll be fine. If you work...

You’ve got a great space to work with, lots of opportunities and lots of flexibility. The light gray walls will help with brightness some, but will become less important as things are collected and stored in there as I’m sure you’ll agree in time. I work for an engineering firm and I have 20...

This hangs above my workbench. I also have several other Ford & Mustang related posters.

Just found this site. I bought a house with a two car attached garage about 12 years ago. I sheetrocked the walls, painted, added a corner workbench, a couple of overhead cabinets, etc. It's served me fairly well but I'm looking to better organize and declutter. I'm looking for innovative...

You want to look at lamp lumens and CRI (color rendering index) to select the best lamps. The higher the CRI, the better, it means it's closer to daylight color. Personally, I'd consider 4' long fixtures instead of 8' fixtures if you are relighting the entire garage. (The 8' fixture will work...
