    Insulation ?

    If you insulate your walls and not your ceiling are you wasting your money. I will run a heater while Im in there working in the winter, but it wont be running anytime else. I wont be putting in A/C for a year or two. Garage is 24x36, with a 10 foot room dividing it.

    I have been thinking about hanging 4 or 6, 20" box fans from my ceiling instead of regular ceiling fans. I figured to hang them down about 8 inches from the ceiling to get the air flow. Has anybody else ever tried this? The box fans are cheaper, and you dont have to worry as much about...

    3 gallons of gas

    I got home last night and opened the garage door with the opener, only to find about 3 gallons of gas puddled up and spreading over the floor. The hose on the bottom of the gas tank, on the lawn mower had come off. I guess I'm lucky it didn't explode when I hit the opener. I spent about 5...

    Im sure this has been addressed and this is the best pic I have now, but my question is when I start insulating the walls, do I put the batt insulation behind the wiring or in front of it. The left side of the pic shows what I have all over the garage.
