    Thank you so much! Would you still go with 16 in the 4x4 pattern?

    Ghostshield 4500 and 8510

    I want to piggyback on this also. For those that have it, if you get chemicals on it (something like armor all or other car cleaning items), does it become slippery? Same deal with water.

    The Best Light Fixture Ever!

    My garage is being built currently. It is 24x24x12. The walls and ceiling will be drywall and white. Should I be looking at high bay lights? Or will the lights in the first post work? Using the program that is linked in this thread it shows 16 fixtures, in 4 rows of 4 lights. Does that...

    Time-lapse advice to document build

    whatever you decide on, play with the camera before the build starts. I'm currently using a gopro to do mine. The first time I did a time lapse I set it at 5sec/pic. It was unwatchable how fast things went by and with the gap in between events. I'm down to 2sec/pic. I've also had to play...

    Sticker Shock 30x40 New Build

    I'm bumping this because I was in the same boat as many people here earlier this year. However, two weeks ago, I got a quote from a builder that many friends have used and he has done great work for. Price was almost half what I had previously been quoted, and he is starting today. A few of...

    rattle_snake's shop audio system

    Nice use of car audio and home equipment. Love the pipes for the port. Did the angle on the pipes change the tuning?

    Architect Cost Question

    Thanks everyone. Stamped plans are not required, a draftsman is fine. The reason I spoke with an architect is because I live in a historic district that has specific rules for doing anything to your house--anything at all. I have to get through the neighborhood association first and then...

    Architect Cost Question

    ^that was what I was expecting when it came to finding a builder and the related tradesman, but for some reason I did not think that would apply so far up the supply chain to get to architects. I guess I should be grateful that the City hasn't raised all of their fees.

    Architect Cost Question

    Sorry for bumping an old thread, but was wondering if anyone had seen a dramatic increase in architect fees in the last two years. I was just quoted $7500 for a 24x24x22 detached garage. Drawings and plans. Basic box--1 floor. Additional if I wanted them to appear before any boards on my...

    24'x24' Detached Auto/Fab Shop

    I did mean peak. Thank you, I'm in planning stage and have to stick to a 20' height without getting a variance. Was curious about the second floor and if I would have that kind of room.

    Atlas FM9SL Scissor Lift Flush-Mount Install

    jtbinvalrico--I may have missed it, but what is the distance between the front of your lift and the back wall and the distance from the rear of the lift to the garage door? I'm planning a new garage and was trying to figure out where to put the lift (front to back) and be able to lift my F150...

    Planning my first garage (a 30' x 23' three car), could use some input.

    What did you do about the tree stump? I have a tree that is in the spot where I'm planning my garage.
