    Third Garage in 8 years...

    The folks at garage floors LLC are the best. Off to the races, although it will take about 20 days with having to do 1/2 the garage at a time with ~7 days of dry/cure time per product. Lots of before, during, after, and tests to come!

    On first glance it is three times the cost at least and would require significantly more prep work (grinding) to do right. I have to do the floor in two stages/halves which also complicates things.

    Third Garage in 8 years...

    Pulled the trigger early on this post, if there is a garage build section maybe it belongs there (admins?). FINALLY ready to start prepping the garage floor as my project cars are still in storage in NH. I'm hoping to DIY the floor on a shoestring budget with maybe the following products. Have a...

    There is an awning there that I'm not sure works. I move in to the house in about a month and want the materials on site first day of move-in to get ahead of the movers.

    Fair. I'll actually shift this over to the garage build as I'll be doing quite a bit of work. I'll be having a go at this myself ASAP as I need to get my lift and cabinets set up when the movers arrive. Ideally I can do in 48hrs.

    Third Garage in 8 years...

    Well, I'm back with another garage to get settled. My dream garage in my dream house is on the market due to a career move by the wifey (really, not bitter :) ); the crushed granite/polyaspartic combo flooring will be missed. The new house has a 24x40 insulated (not heated/cooled) garage with a...

I am installing a water softener for the house in a closet by the garage and had the plumber do the following (see...

    New Home Construction - Garage Prep

    I am about 3-4 weeks from the completion of my new house and JUST had the thought of what do to with my garage floor. I've been reading though the threads on here and hope some pros jump in. What should I ask the contractors to do to the garage floor so I can add an inexpensive sealer (like...

    Eagle Gloss Clear over new concrete

    Also reviving this in the hope that someone has an answer. I've trying to decide on a ~100 day old slab to either do the 4500/8510 combo or this. Would love the pros' thoughts. Thanks!

    Harbor Freight 5-drawer cart picture review

    Yeah 149.99 was a great pickup. I ended up drilling out the bottom holes and everything else fit perfectly. Very solid cart.

    Harbor Freight 5-drawer cart picture review

    I just picked one of these up at the parking lot deal and no matter what I do I can't get the leg uprights to line up. Should I attempt to return it or just file out the hole? Only 5/16 don't line up even with all the bolts loose...

    Caliper suggestions needed

    Thank you everyone for your thoughts. I should have been more specific I think in my tool needs. I'll be using the tool to check in/out of spec parts vice using them for actual machine work. I'll be going to a machine shop for any actual work. I would only use the calipers to check piston/pin...

    Seems like the iGauge may be the next best thing and less than $40...?

    Caliper suggestions needed

    I'm bringing this one back from the dead as it was the most recent caliper thread and I am looking for a caliper for hobbyist machinist work. I'll be rebuilding a Subaru EJ205 and a EJ207 over the next couple years and want to make sure I am buying the correct tool. From reading the shop...

    Garage Rebuild

    New flooring in my old man cave which is now another guest room. Also a much busier work bench. Also some materials for a stair refinishing project I have planned for the end of the month. Not terrible high-dollar or exciting, but I'm learning a lot and have been pretty proud of the way it has...

    Garage Rebuild

    Well, its been a while since I've posted here as we thought we were going to sell the house and move up to DC, but we've decided to stay and thus back to the garage work in prep for my car project. I've found most of the engine for the rebuild, so my tool selection will be changing. Man cave...
