I am building some wardrobe type closets/cabinets (with sliding doors) in the back and side of my garage. The closets/cabinets have a 1 ft pocket at each end where I plan on mounting some shelves. Not sure if shelves will go on the back wall of the closet/cabinet or a slat wall. Where should I...

Just wondering if anyone that is into woodworking has a race deck floor? Any issues or concerns with woodshavings/sawdust ? :headscrat Thanks, Mordi

I purchased a 96" workbench at Costco that is approx. 24" deep and 37" high. I want to build some cabinets above the bench and install lighting under the cabinets. My original thought was to have (3)x 32" long cabinets, 17" deep and perhaps 16" high, but I open to other possibilities. For the...

Roger55 Yes - that is similiar and along the lines of what I was thinking - just something very basic to cover the floor and match the main area. Thanks, Mordi

Great - more pics :drool: Are those shelves 1/2 or 3/4 " ? Looks like the wood is unfinished - I thought I read some where that if you seal the wood, it is less likely to warp:headscrat The back of my cabinets will drywall. Any need to put a backing to the cabinet or can the drywall server as...

Hammlm, Those are really some great looking cabinets you built - nice job:thumbup: I think we all are anxious to see more pics - especially some shots that show how you did the interior shelves -i.e. are there pegs or brackets that support the shelves, the dimensions of shelves, etc. Due to...

As part of my planned garage makeover, I am building an enclosure for the water heater and solar tank. Also building a storage area in the rear and side of the garage. Just wondering if I should also finish the floor in these areas in the same manner as the rest of the garage (i.e. epoxy or...

Great idea. I have the same problem with my wife :lol_hitti Thanks for sharing Mordi

As part of my garage makeover, I was thinking I would like to have an air hose handy so I could inflate the tires as needed. However, I would like to keep the hose hidden when not in use. I was thinking of storing it on a reel - perhaps inside a cabinet :headscrat. Maybe a slot in the cabinet...

I was thinking of using plastic rollers on the bottoms of the doors - Any issues with that approach? Mordi

Excellent - Exactly the kind of setup I was thinking about:thumbup: Thanks so much for the pics and the explanation of the hardware - that really helps me with my planning. Is there a stop at the end of the 6 ft track for the left door? Mordi

I am in the process of planning for the back wall of the garage (std 2 car 400 sq ft) and the current plan calls for a workbench and home built cabinets. For the workbench, my original thoughts were a 6 ft workbench that consisted of 2 craftsman tool cabinets (on wheels) with a piece of butcher...

That is what I am talking about! :thumbup: What size are those doors and what type of hardware do you have those doors on? Are there rollers on tracks for the top and bottom? From the pic it looks like you have three tracks - is that so you can push the doors all the way to one side or the...

That looks like a good use of space :thumbup: Is that the $199 7 ft workbench from Costco? If so, how do you like it? Mordi

I have about 18 ft or so along the back wall of my garage that I would like to use for enclosed storage and a workbench area. I am thinking about cabinets that are approx. 72 inches in height, 16 inches deep and have sliding doors. (Need the sliding doors sue to space limitations). Has anyone...

I am looking at the Direct Lift Pro-Park - 8 Plus from Greg Smith. This lift is similar to the Direct Lift Pro Park - 8S but it can lift the vehicle higher. (The max lift height is 72" for the Pro-Park 8S vs. 86" for the Pro-Park 8 Plus). While I don't plan on lifting the vehicle to the 86"...

I have two air vents on the back wall of my garage. One vent is approx 7 feet off the garage floor and the other vent is approx 18" from the floor. The vents are square in shape and approx. 14" in size. I would like to install tall cabinets across the back wall of the garage and if I do, they...

This is a subject that is near and dear to my heart :) I have approx. 1900 sq ft of stamped and colored concrete in the front of my house. The concrete was installed about two and a half years ago, as part of a landscape remodel. At the time of installation, the concrete was sealed with a...

I have over 2,500 sq ft of stamped/colored concrete at my residence. The sealer I used (Behr Wet Look) has failed in less than a year (after applying 3 coats .) It is flaking off. Additionally, some rust stains have deposited on the concrete. The rust stains have proved difficult to remove and...
