Installed the blinds this evening: Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

Been a while since I updated this project thread, but I have finally finished insulating all the HVAC lines in the garage and did some decorating of the space; window blinds are in and should be installed soon. Duct work all wrapped: Some Swedish Goodies for the walls (still have some...

The cabinets are fantastic, no complaints at all! Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

Finished the light in the back of the garage and added the rest of the outlets. Since that was all complete I decided to take some time to do my winter detail prep. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

There is no way to run the duct work any other way because of the way the joists run in the ceiling. Two of the duct lines are completely hidden because they run with the joists, but impossible for the other 4 lines. I'm insulating and hook up all the duct lines this weekend. In the future when...

I added some padding to the gas and A/C lines, it's the same padding you use for basketball poles. I had one piece left over so I wrapped one of the support poles that our rear doors would hit. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

Thanks! Some of my family/friends think I'm a little crazy for making the garage as nice as I did, but in the end I'm completely happy with my decisions to pay that much attention to detail :D

I used 3/4" x 5-1/2" Vinyl trim for the base; completely maintenance free! It wasn't cheap, but worth it to me in the long run.

Finished with securing the cabinets to the walls tonight; just need to get some wood screws to secure the bamboo countertop to the base cabinets. I was also able to get park both cars inside for their first time since June overnight. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

I'm using a compressor with a nail gun. No way would I nail trim by hand lol! I'm planning either painting the fridge or wrapping it in vinyl to match the cabinets. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

Cabinets are up! Overall I am very happy with the build of the NewAge cabinets and they feel very solid! I do however recommend picking up some larger lag screws and fender washers to mount the cabinets. They provide you with 1/4" lag screws and just regular sized washers, I instead went with...

Started installing the base trim and door trim in preparation for the cabinet install this weekend. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

Finished the Window Trim tonight: I had to build the trim off the wall about 7/16" because of how the windows are set; I used 1x2 pine to frame out the window so I can get blinds inside the framing (I had to do this for every single window in my house). I nailed a 7/16"x2" pine to the...

Her XC60 is from Red Bank. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

Congrats on the new home purchase! I just like you was going to use the Rustoluem Professional Kit until I was directed to this website and got some great information from all the vendors. I ended up going with ArmorPoxy and I'm very glad that I did go with their kit; it also helped that they...

I asked my local dealer when we were purchasing my wife's XC60 and on the day we picked it up they gave me one from the display case since they had an extra one. The bracket actually was meant for a track system so I cut the welded on tabs with a grinder. I drilled out four 3/8" holes and used...

Started working on the trim work this week. First up framing out the windows. Sent from my iPhone 6 Plus using Tapatalk

Weekend Update: So I finished off all the painting (went with white for the ceiling and light gray for the walls), installed the LED 4000k Recessed Lights, hung the Volvo wheel as the hose reel, installed all the hideaway doors (water shutoff, sewer clean out and tube drain for the bath...

Looking good MagicMarker! Hopefully I'll have my wheel hose reel up this weekend if I finishing painting.
