Thanks.... it was an instant lawn. Sod. With 2 black labs my wife had no patience to wait for lawn to grow. The dogs tracked enough dirt in and out of the house while preparing for the shop and lawn

Bad Picture but the late start and winter prevented me from finishing my garage last winter.( figured out how to load pictures again. Doesnt work from my phone) And like i mentioned earlier helping others before myself created delays again...... one day i will quit doing that. I have come along...

Thanks just sorting through things time get set up again.

Re: My 24x24 Garage Just scrolled through your thread. I had the same issues with the cement pour. The framing pushed out on the back outside of my pad. About an inch lip. I'm just leaving it. Cant see it unless you go back there. Another similarity.... too much working and not enough...

Trying to figure out adding pictures again. A years absence doesn't help

It's been awhile since I've been here. Trying to see if I remember how to do this. Garage is well on its way. Had a bit of a hiatus last winter because of my the late start. And during this past summer was helping others with there projects. Will load pictures shortly of some more progress. :beer:

After getting a bit of time to do some planning I am seriously thinking about putting windows in the vaulted area. Not sure what would look better 2 or 3 windows on each side of center. ( the left side of center has a tree in the background making it look like another window divider)

well after a bit of a hiatus, mostly due to rain on almost every day since we got the trusses up there was finally a window of opportunity to get the sheathing and shingles on. Between trying to work 2 jobs and horrible weather, this was a challenge.

I was definately glad they showed up. and had great guys helping get them up. I was more impressed how quickly they went up.

We did get a bit of the cold as well but today i heard it was 19 degrees here. finally a nice warm day and i had to work.

Your progress is so quick that its hard to keep up. Your shop looks good and I will probably borrow a couple ideas.

Congrats to You and Leanne on your new baby boy Shane, Is he gonna be a Oilers fan as well as a car guy? :)

Garage is looking good !! Where did you vacation in Canada?

Holy Cow, It took awhile but the trusses finally came in and we took advantage of the nice day yesterday. We have had alot of rain lately so we were lucky they came in on a sunny day. :bounce: We quickly put them up and got the ladders made but the shorter days prevented us from sheathing. I do...

Well the trusses still aren't ready. :headscrat Call back next Monday he says.:confused: Hopefully they are ready then, as my next days off are Monday to Thursday. If so, I should have the roof done by the end of the days off :)

I need a 455 built :D ..... :3gears:

Oh the roof will be on before the winter. I Just wanted to put it on during my last days off. I work 4 days on 4 days off at a pulpmill ,and also work part time at a bodyshop on my days off, or any other time available. The bodyshop doesn't have enough work for a full time painter so it works...

Definately an inspirational build !!

Talked to the truss guy yesterday, I guess he had a longtime employee leave to go to a teaching job so he is a bit behind. He said to check in next Wednesday. That timing is bad as that would be my last day off. But hopefully they will be done then. we still have a bit of good weather left, so...

Thanks , Progress will slow down now as winter is coming and I get busier but will keep up with the pictures.
