Nope. Walls were poured as a normal foundation is. There was a 2'' x 9'' key in the top of the walls. The floor was then formed from below and poured after. 9'' thick floor with a ton of rebar...

My full basement only cost about 5-6k$ more. http://garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=50008 Best money I ever spent!!!

This is exactly what I would like to build (with only minor difference...) I would love to see some loft pics.

Beautiful home and garage! I would also like to see photos of upstairs. How big is your detached garage? Thanks

Hey guys, Yes it kinda of looks like a grow op/bunker... but there are two decent windows and a staircase going from the garage basement up into the garage and a door to access the the original basement of the house. The windows were a last minute extra... but thank god I put them! It would...

I know a few of you have been patiently waiting photos... as you all know, life gets crazy sometimes.... Here are a few more. I will add more of the final product shortly. Sorry for the delay!

I thought it to be such a coincidence to run across this thread today. Yesterday I spent the day cleaning out my father's garage. He died suddenly at 53 just over a year and a half ago. It was therapeutic for me. I was happy to add his tools to mine... the little bit of rust just added life to...

Hi guys, Im a long time lurker. I just started another project, I usually do all the work myself, but due to lack of time, I have given this one to a contractor. I will build my own detached garage when the time comes. The plan is pretty simple, it is a 24' x 24' attached garage with a 9''...

Same here. I love the site and check it daily. I rarely listen to the podcasts though. Another ok site is www.toolsnob.com. It is not updated as often though.

OldCarGuy, werent you supposed to get a complimentary Rotary lift?? Ive been waiting for the conclusion to that story... did I miss something?? (I dont mean to hijack... just thought it was relevant)

I would pick it up. 49$ is amazing. This is a special introductory price. The compressor is made by Maxus... see here for a review http://www.toolsnob.com/archives/2007/12/maxus_xlite_aluminum_compresso_1.php I think I would pick up as many as I could get my hands on. They would make great gifts.

It does not cost 1000$ once the brake is activated. Apparently the "brake module" has to be replaced, along with the blade (half the time). Brake module : 80$ Blade: 80-100$

If you dont live in Canada, use the postal code G0A 4S0 when prompted.... That should work.

I got what I think to be a great deal this week on a vise. http://tinyurl.com/38vk9t 29$ cdn for a vise that is guaranteed forever. You cant beat that! (yes... i know that it may not be the best vise in the world, but it seems to be really decent)

Nice garage. I would definately like to see more pics!

Damn... that looks like a good deal... I missed that one in the flyer.. I might have to pick one up myself. I think you are right.. those are perfect for small bearings, bushings etc....

It is a Canadian thing because the inventor was Canadian. Henry Ford heard about them and wanted to use them in his assembly line, but Robertson was inflexible with his patent and rights etc... Ford did not negociate and went with another screw head.. the rest is history!

All Canadians know that Robertson screws are the best....! :) If it were up to me, they would be the only screw.... Too bad Mr. Robertson and Henry Ford didnt get along... because if they had of, the Americans on this board would see the light! :beer:
