    Garage Floor Matting?

    Has anyone had experience with full length floor mats? My 1 car garage floor has seen better days and exoxy/tiling isn't worth the money to me. I don't care fore the plastic snap tiles, so matting peeked my interest. I'm referring to mats like this...

    Restoring Great-grandfather's tools

    A few months back, I helped a relative deep clean my great grandparent's house (Built in 1915). It's in a small mill town in Georgia and I still have family that live there to this day.

In addition to the main box there's a box that rarely gets used for obvious reasons. He worked in the wrecker sales business for years. I'm just curious, what would the box and...

    Are my plans proportionate?

    The other day I discovered the CB Structures' Space Planner and laid out the basic plans I have for my future build. Maybe it's me, but the scale of the shop along with the cars, work benches, etc. doesn't seem proportionate. The program sets these items to what they are in real life, but...
