Hi all, I just purchased and assembled a 100k BTU furnace with some basic ducting for my 28x48x16 shop, and was curious if anyone had some last minute input on mounting it to the wall. I bought some 3/16"x1 1/2 x 1 1/2" angle iron and was going to make some shelf brackets, but thought I'd throw...

I'm just getting ready to finally slap some siding on my new garage. To make the building not look so commercial I thought of doing red vinyl siding (5"-7") with white trim, an 8" white trim board mounted horizontally just above my garage doors with white shakes above it, and a cupola on the...

Me and my stepfather wired my shop last week, and thought I'd pick you brains on what we ended up with since I could still tweak it if desired. I put 3 rows of 4' and 8' 2/4 light T5 fixtures down my main shop, (28'x48'x16'), (4) 4' T5's up above my work/tool area (8' height), 4 recessed cans...

I'm getting ready to cover the inside of my shop. I like flame resistant material such as sheetrock, but I like the versatile plywood where it's rugged and I can screw to it. I was thinking plywood for most of the shop and maybe concrete board in my main work area/tool area where cut off saws...

I thought I'd post some pics of my new man cave build since so many have been so helpful on this forum! I'm about a year into the build as I'm doing this as time and money permits. It's 28'x48'x16' with a full attic, and a partial second floor (or whatever you want to call it). It have 2 doors...

Hi all, I have many questions posted in a different thread so I think my most important question is getting overlooked or not getting the proper attention. My new garage is 28' wide with 16' ceilings and I'm putting a very short second floor in the back (28' wide by 10' long), mainly for easier...

I am just completing the framing of my new 28x48x16 shop, and although I have some ideas, wanted some other peoples input. To try not to loose to much space with the tall ceiling, and to add easier access to my attic, I'm putting a second floor up in the back 10'. I don't want any vertical post...

Hi all, when I started doing some research on building my new garage in Tilton, NH I went to Google for help. It seems that every question I have brings me to garagejournal.com. What a great site! Now if I could only figure out how to post pictures...
