Thanks for your suggestions! They are along the lines of what I was thinking too!

That had me scratching my head as well! It's only the entry way and under the stairs to the second floor. I see no reason for it!

I am in the middle of a 2.5 car 24' X 28' two story garage build (1344 sq ft) and am in the process of considering what to do about A/C and heat. The build is in Florida just below Daytona. The house has a heat pump and gas furnace. No complaints with that system. Now I'm wondering what to do...

Thank you!

I'm in the process of building a new 2.5 car garage; two stories. There will be 200 amp service running to the garage. Just curious: I have a Lincoln 225 amp arc welder. Will the 200 amp service supply the 225 amp welder? Thanks!

It took me a while to get the pictures to follow the text but I finally got it! This last picture is from yesterday and the trusses are on. Today the roof should get the plywood and a meatl roof follows. It will feel good to get it secure. I've been planning on this build for about five years...

I am planning to retire to Florida within a year but need a garage for my toys! There is no room in the 800 sq. ft. house to store anything and I need a place for my tools and equipment. The garge will be 24' by 28' and is the biggest that will fit on the property. The Town is rather specific...

That really SUX! Sorry for you and to hear the story. I have a real personal relationship with my tools. They are my tools, I don't want a new replacement tool; I want my tools. Whats that line about the GI and his gun? "This is my gun there is no other one like it in the world."...

I ran a shop for a while and generated a lot of used oil. When I got about 200 gallons I would call a waste truck to come pick it up. I got paid for clean used oil. Now they charge to pick it up! WTF?

Chevy orange! Small blocks rule for reliability!

Wow!

I am building a 24' deep by 28' wide garage behind my house in Florida right now. That's the biggest garage I could build in the space provided. IE setbacks etc. It's two stories and the stairs to go up take quite a bit of space! It is for one car, one boat and three bikes. It's not finished...

I'm building a 24 X 28 sq ft garage, two story, which is projected to cost me about $35.00 sq ft. The cost will probably go up as building progresses!

That is a good thought! Thanks!

I've decided to go with green sill plates and the boric acid spray on the rest of the garage. The garage will be sided with hardy board and will have a metal roof..

I'm building a new 24' X 28' garage in Florida and was wondering about bug protection. They sprayed under the foundation before it was poured (yesterday). I wanted to use green wood throughout but the builder said it was cost prohibitive and would add about 33% to the price of the lumber. He...

I made my workbench 35" high and 6 foot long, I'm 5'10". I also made it 3 foot wide. Wish I had made it 2 foot wide. My tool boxes are 18" deep. I think I will narrow up the bench in the new garage so it doesn't stick out from the tool boxes.

I just thought that maybe someone would have developed a non desicating synthetic grease by now! I'm lazy and get tired of greasing tracks.

I have tool boxes with slide drawers not ball bearings. Craftsman and Mac. I have to re-grease the drawers every 10 years or so as the grease dries out and gets sticky with hard to pull drawers. Is there any grease out there that lasts a while longer without drying out? I'm sure this has been...

Ditto! I'd reroute around slab also! Maybe you'd never have a problem but if you did.......!
