still on the hunt if anyone received one

anybody have one of the 25% no exclusions coupon (I think it expires today)? Looking to pick up a toolbox

I just went thru this with HF. I had an order in for over a month on a 72 S2 box (blue in fact), and they just cancelled it. I had a 25% off coupon applied to my order. I tried calling after cancellation trying to get a similar deal applied to a S3 box, and they told me to shove it. You're only...

Door is on! Went with the insulated Haas 670 with insulated windows and LiftMaster 8500W motor. Long panel design seems to have been the right call with the wide door and horizonal siding.

Those with a keen eye may have noticed in the concrete pour there were cutouts for concrete reinforcements. That was a big factor in the entire scope of this project. I picked up a Forward 10k 2-post lift from a local Cadillac dealer who was selling a few take-outs. Apparantly they need to...

this is what I had in mind for this area and it's looking like a good fit. Picked up the cheapest aluminum 12 ft I could find.

no, never looked at wood

stage 1 done!! big items left are (definitely forgetting some): garage door 2 post lift mini split electrical and lighting insulation gutters

also got my first quote on a 18w x 9h insulated garage door with one row of windows, with a jackshaft opener installed. 7k was the number. o_O Gonna need to shop around on that; strikes me as absurd.

on schedule to finish up with the building construction next week The crew really did an outstanding job so far. They measured constantly and made sure everything was in it's proper spot. I haven't found one screw thru the sheet metal that missed it's target

moving on up!

does anyone have a harbor freight no exclusions 25% off coupon they're not planning to use? Looking to pick up a big 72 in. toolbox as an upgrade and this would be massively helpful. Shoot me a PM if so

also another note -- does anyone have a harbor freight no exclusions 25% off coupon they're not planning to use? Looking to pick up a big 72 in. toolbox as an upgrade and this would be massively helpful. Shoot me a PM if so Much appreciated

tiny update opted for crushed stone between the wall and the garage. The man door will be at the front corner but other than that will be pretty low traffic. good parking for a trailer/project car

I'm in MA. I'm not a concrete expert so I couldn't really speak to how conventional/unconventional the slab approach was. The styrofoam insolation was an optional item but I wanted to include both that and a vapor barrier for moisture management and also as the shop will be heated/cooled. We...

My town doesn't allow for multiple electrical services on the same 1-family property (would've been way easier), and the house is only setup for 100 amps; so the home's panel will be upgraded to 200 amps and the garage will have a subpanel off of that

concrete prep and pour

Here's some further progress. Electrical conduit is in place and we get loads of gravel in to start setting everything up for a monolithic slab.

site grading, electrical trench, and wall formation shaping up.
