And why isn't the black box on sale? Same box different color #98084.

Good tip. Thanks! I have a local builder that is a small volume guy. Him and a couple of others build houses. I trust his quailty and his price is fair. I will also GC the thing myself and be doing all the interior drywall, kitchens bath work etc. to keep costs down.

Kind of where my head is at style wise. Might go a bit bigger. Garage will most probably use post and beam -- just dressed up to gel with the house.

Started out with Chief Architect which is a 50-60 dollar program. I now have Autodesk Revit which is the industry standard design program. Like I said before, even though I have the design software I don't feel that I have the knowledge to take full advantage of it.

Wow much more than I expected so far. Believe me I have been all over the net and I have read a ton. Good House Cheap House is very inspiring. I firmly believe that you do NOT have to build a beige box to have an affordable structure. I have my own version of Revit so if need be I'll go at it...

Hi. I apologize as this is a bit off topic. I'm looking for a site that I may be able to go to to find an architect to design me a small, clean, modern, cost effective house. Of course I will need to integrate a garage into the design. Due to my budget this is an ambitions project but I have to...

Great post minus the useless bickering. Would like to see a side by side comparison of this and racedeck. There are tons of threads but I'm still not sure I'm getting what's so much better about racedeck. The owner of Racedeck seems to shy away from posting about exactly what makes garagedeck a...

I thought this guy's build was unbelievable for the price. He seems to have stalled out for the moment but you get the idea. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49785

Yeah I guess I'll have to get samples. I've seen close up pictures of the racedeck and there doesn't appear to be any gap. The person on here with the garagedeck has a tape measure in his photo and there is obviously a larger gap then I'd be happy with. Post some pictures and follow up...

I'm still hoping someone on here will provide more feedback on the Racedeck vs. Garagedeck. We know they are made by the same company that's no secret. They are about a buck a tile cheaper which adds up to a nice savings. One concern I have is the tile gap a 1/16 on the Garagedeck seems...

The owner of Racedeck frequently posts to these boards and offers a forum discount from what I've read. Just keep that in mind.

Refreshing to see somebody using his floor well as a floor and not just a resting place for pretty things. Job well done. Question: which colors if any do you feel are a better choice in the long run? Basically which still look good inspite of the use they've been getting.

Interesting. Are you sure you want to have the washer and dryer in your kitchen? Also, it looks like you can't access either one of the bathrooms unless you walk through a bedroom? Just a thought...

Agreed a pressure washer may not do it. If you are taking it off what does it matter what it is?

I have to measure the size but this is a big bottle. Bigger than a 125 for sure. My local Airgas will only sell me an 80 and they want $160 filled for that. This bottle is more than twice that size so I'd like to keep it if at all possible. Tractor supply wanted some stupid price for a new 80 I...

I'll jump on the "hot" band wagon. Having used a Karcher day in and day out for almost three years hot is the way to go.

Hi, About 10 years ago a guy that did some work for me and left a bottle of C25 in my garage. It's probably a No 5 or 6. Anyway, now my son wants to learn to weld and I'd like to use that bottle. I've read that this may pose a problem. The bottle has a company name stamped into the neck and...

Good information. Thanks. I'll check into Conestoga when the time comes. There is also a company that advertises in the Penny Pincher called T.L. Construction which has some nice prices as well AND they actually answer their email. Any plans for the ceiling? If it's like a Pioneer building...

Yeah that chart does show 120/240. Let us know how it works out for you and maybe even a picture of the final install.

Nice but I'd be afraid to light my welder in that "garage". Looks more like a museum to me.
