Drywall has been started. It's amazing how quickly this can make the space start to feel finished. Any thoughts on wall colors? I was thinking a light gray, with dark gray window and door trim to hide finger smudges and marks. IMG_0785 by duncanrellis, on Flickr IMG_0784 by duncanrellis, on...

I don't think I'd make any substantive changes if I build another one. That said, I'm not racing as much, and thinking about selling the cart and replacing it with a traditional toolbox. Duncan

I don't have time to repopulate the thread, but I did scoop up all the images I could find and put them in a public Dropbox link. https://www.dropbox.com/s/596xcs4st25c7x8/Photos.zip?dl=0

Is anybody aware of options for a one piece edge protector that will work on a 10ft door?

Yes, we're conditioning just the new garage. Drywall is scheduled for the end of the month, so hopefully we'll be able to get the walls painted and the mini-split installation scheduled.

It's an Atlas FM9SL from Greg Smith Equipment.

All the electrical and airlines are roughed in. Ready for drywall.

Sorry for the delay with no updates. Quite a lot has been done since my last update. Contractor is done with the garage. We're still working to fix out the inside. Lights and the door installed. IMG_0678 by duncanrellis, on Flickr Redid the lights across the front of the garage. IMG_0676 by...

I'll post up some more pictures this week, but we're in the final stages of the work the contractor is doing. * Drywall guys will finish on Monday * We have three days to paint the ceiling * Garage door installed on Friday * Electrician coming to install the light fixtures and switches the next...

Another quote received. $5695 for an 18K Mitsubishi Hyperheat installed.

Yes, I had them wire for two fans, and was planning to use them in the winter only.

I wrote the contractor that supplied the quote for $7.5K and asked him to provide a more detailed breakdown of his price, citing concerns about what I estimated for the cost of equipment plus the relative ease of this installation (sub panel in same space, unobstructed mourning area, open stud...

There is a 100 amp sub panel in the garage 50 ft away so the electric should be pretty simple. New construction so I think the install is straight forward. The heat unit and compressor can go on the same wall. No obstructions We are electric only so this unit needs to be the sole source of...

I thought so too. After receiving three quotes, two from Mitsubishi "Diamond Star" recommendations I'm amazed at how all over the place they are.

HVAC company two which I think actually ran a load calculation came back with a recommendation for an 18K hyper heat unit. MSZ-FH18 / MUZ-FH18 ~7,500 for the install.

The time to make that decision (spray foam) is already past. The ceiling installation and drywall is already installed.
