Looks like it is really taking shape! I'm sure it will bring you joy - thanks for sharing.

Friday was productive (besides taking my little guy trick or treating). I got the office painted, moved the desk into the office, got my tool cabinets delivered and assembled the lower cabinets. This week I hope to mount the upper cabinets and install the legs on the 2 tall storage cabinets...

Funny you mention parking the Exige under the Mog..... I had a very early '05 Elise, and after a trip on I-55 (lots of truck traffic) I was afraid they were going to lane change over the top of me. After a while I traded the Elise for an equally sized Beck Spyder. Wish I still owned them both...

Nice job on the window film. I tried this on a small window with success, but when I true duty on larger window wasn't able to avoid a wrinkle or two (or three). Looking forward to floor pics.

They are "Pit Stop" brand. I got them from the carguygarage site. However, now that I look at the list of Alliance vendors, I see them on GarageArt with a better price, not to mention the 10% discount.....

Thanks... If anyone wants the tv shop info send me a pm. I believe they offer free shipping. Sale runs through Sunday.

I have been busy buying stuff.... Friday my cabinets for the shop will get delivered - I went with the New Age stuff via Costco. I still need to paint the office, but hope to get that done while waiting for the cabinet delivery. Then I will buy a couch, and that will be it for a while, I'm...

I agree... I'm an accountant. Part of a pro bid includes putting a couple $ into warranty reserves.

So - in the "office" I demolished the old receptionist window, this added about 6x6 to the office. I have tired to include a before picture from a similar vantage point as the picture looking at the front door. I also got the floating floor in. In the little nook to the right of the...

Thanks for the note.... summers in Chicago are great. I have friends in Spicewood on the lake - cool spot. If I had been starting with raw space I would have built the office as a loft, and removed the first floor office (leaving more floor space for toys). However, there is an HVAC system...

I'm starting to work on the office. Hope to have some pictures this weekend. I did buy the flooring - want with a floating bamboo. Also, last weekend I got a 4 post lift installed.

So, the contractor came out and sanded the floor down patched most of the little creators that were formed from the bubbles, applied more expoxy and a clear coat. Overall, I am pleased with the fix. I think he was responsive with respect to the fix. Certainly I question if it should have...

So the sanding and additional epoxy application was a huge help. There are no more bubbles. There are a few (perhaps 5) spots where they didn't totally sand down the hard ridge that had formed around the bubble - the result of this is a little ring under the epoxy, about the size of a nickel...

So I have not seen it in person.... But per my wife and owner of floor co, looks great, no bubbles and can't tell.... They sanded while floor, patched the little craters with base. Then cleared and flaked the whole thing. Will post pics when I can. Not a wonderful experience, but seems like...

After looking at it, they plan to abrade the surface and apply a second coat. Pros - given the current status does this sound like the right plan?

They are coming back out today, will be interesting to see if/how they can fix it. To address of few of the questions/comments - This space is an industrial space a few miles from my house that I got to store my toys/projects and work. Will do some light work on my cars, along with...

They grinded the floor, took lunch to let the dust settle (although the vacuumed as they went), did another vacuum job, then mixed epoxy and applied flakes. So I don't believe there was a separate primer coat. The product they used was in a Sherwin Williams bucket "General Polymers High...

Two weeks ago I had the garage floor at my house epoxied. Went with a full flake system (base coat, lots of flakes, then a clear on top). I was very pleased with result. So this past week, I had the same company come and do my workshop (will be primarily collector car storgae). They...

Oh snap.... so they did the floors on Thursday and they looked fine at the time. I peaked in thursday night and there were a couple bubbles, but they had said a few might appear and that they would go away. In fact last week when they did the floors at my house it had a couple bubbles when I...

I bought. There us a very reasonable association fee that covers building repair (roof, parking lot...) and insurance for the structure. I was tempted to try and buy a larger empty space and carve it up, but as Pmason indicated, modifications that need to comply with current codes can be...
