    Crazy idea for a shop/garage/man house

    So my HOA does not allow pole barns or sheds or anything of that nature. So I have a grand idea of building a "house garage" across the street. The lots are pretty cheap. It would be a garage that looks like a house on the outside, but is just empty inside. I can have a workshop, a nice...

    220v Plug style recommendation?

    I don't anything that is 220v yet, but plan on putting a lift in and getting a welder. Should I use a three or four prong style plug for each? One is in the ceiling(lift) and the other is in the rear corner(compressor).

    Garage layout plan - opinions welcome

    So this is how I think the garage should be laid out. The pad is so if I get a triumph or maxjax I can plug it in the ceiling and leave the left arm permanently. The right arm will be moved as needed. The pad area leaves me some wiggle room on where to put the lift, open to suggestions on if...

    Sub Panel recommendation - needed?

    We are building our home now (in sig) and a few people have recommended putting a sub panel in the garage. If my main panel is in the garage will it matter? What amp rating should it be? How many spots should it have? This is what I plan on doing for the lighting? Three different circuits so...

    Three car garage driveway designs

    What do you have as far as how it goes to the doors? The wife does not want it all straight out of all three bays. The GC originally spoke about bringing it to a single, but we think that is way too narrow. Maybe we didn't understand what he is saying. So not a lot of options, but better to...

    Top 5 Used Drill presses?

    Center Slatwall section throughout garage?

    Still deciding on what to do for the garage walls on the home we are breaking ground with soon. I like the idea of slatwall, but I don't think I can stay in budget by doing it all in slatwall. So if i did the first 4 feet in sheetrock and the next 4 in slatwall and finish it with sheetrock...

    Bonus Room Stair Ideas?

    So we are building our forever home this summer and I wanted to get your thoughts on some ideas for bonus room stairs. On the original plans the stairs were inside the house, but we didn't plan on using the bonus room enough to justify losing the space on the inside of the house so we extended...

    Can you use slatwall on an adjoining wall?

    If I wanted to use slatwall on the walls adjoining the main part of the house would it pass code? Or does it fall under the same category as OSB and plywood? Thanks

    Anyone with a 25x35 garage?

    Trying to get ideas of what can be done with that space? House is getting built and that is about as big as I could go with our budget. Couldn't justify a garage being half the size of the house.

    New from Aberdeen, NC
