    Been Busy! Wrapped up for a few days while busy with work... Picked up a Pella Double Entry way door for $300 at lowes as a special order return. Probably the nicest shed door ever. Lol I pick up the siding next Tuesday, along with the Shingles. Goal is to be 100% done by Friday...

    Thanks guys. The soffits are amazing, along with the large workbench and closets. I am shocked at how much storage the garage has that is hidden. I can put everything away, detailing stool, shop-vac, etc. Can't wait for the shed to be done so that the garage floor will only be for cars :D...

    Using Harbor Freight 20% Coupon @ Home Depot

    I tried this out last night. I asked a cashier prior to doing anything, she directed me to a manager. Told the manager I was interested in buying a miter saw with a HF 20% coupon - she responded to go pick out a saw, and she would tell me yes or no. I picked out a $219 DeWalt 10" miter and she...

    Adding to this - about to start construction on a 10x16' shed that was OK'd by the HOA. So all my "stuff" will be going out there and the garage for cars and auto tools only. With that said- this garage is the best thing I have done to our house. Everything has a place, and its a great joy to...

    Air drill and air impact gun at depot for $25

    5 at my HD. Had 1 in my cart for a long time, then put it back. I would have to go out of my way to use these little tools. I will always grab my cordless stuff before busting out an air reel ...so I decided no point in it.

    Porcelain Garage Floor Question

    Use some schluter (sp?) edging. I picked mine up from Home depot. I ended my tile about 1" before the door strip in case doors are changed in the future, etc. You can see it here.

    Is tile a good floor for a garage?

    Agreed with all of these post. I did my floor last year, 550 sq ft with PEI 5 tile from home depot. It was $1.50 sq ft. Cheaper than alot of vinyl options, or even an epoxy from some places. Keep in mind that you can do half the garage at a time, then work on the grouting. I couldn't do...

    The RoboReel Again...

    Just a thought, but I just wired my garage space and added 2 new circuits, 16 outlets, some 10/3 for a heater and my air compressor, and I spent well under $300. Even with lighting fixtures, maybe in the $300 range. To say this lacks value is an understatement. I don't drop that kind of coin...

    Craftsman 4000 lb. Capacity Aluminum Jack $122 AC (orig. $240)

    Words cant describe what a POS this jack is. And as stated, no parts avail and seals WILL fail. Not IF or MAYBE but 100% absolutely will. Wouldn't pay $5 for another one.

    Sure! Here is the one in the front left of the garage, has the air reel (compressor is in basement) and for now ladders and what not. It is sized so that my Cman roller box will fit inside. The one on the front right of the garage was built because of the ceiling notch. For jack/ rarely used...

    Thank you! I will say that anyone considering the soffit storage build (a huge thanks to Garage Journal as I would have never thought of it) .. 1) Its a lot to build. Especially with lights, drywalling, building the doors/track system. More time and money consumed than I thought. 2) Awesome...

    No isses at all so far! And I have drug some serious stuff across it (table saw for one) and nothing leaves a mark. Also dropped some tools from ladder height with no issue. Thrilled 100% with the floor..the ONLY downfall is the manual labor.
