Added the Edsal 5 shelf today. Immediately wish I got 2, and might still go for it.. The rubbermaid (somewhat hidden) on the other side will be extended more to the right - I love it!!!

Once I am unpacked fully, I can move all the **** to one side and start sanding and painting. I did a layout plan tonight...

Ignoring the light stuff (got nuked quick cause the attic stairs block it)

Compressor in the attic, 75ft retracting air hose and 50ft electrical from the ceiling in the middle.

Thoughts? Recommendations?

If I had money and a big garage, my next two projects would be a Beetle and a Chevy truck of that vintage. Good stuff.

Got a chance to put it to use today.. built my workbench. I plan on probably adding a backsplash with vertical storage to it as well

Ended up 45" high, 48" wide, 24" deep.

Little higher than I wanted (cause I forgot to account for caster height) but I can fix if it's too high - its all screws :)

I think I am going to use left over wood to make a backsplash that will be wall mounted, so this can roll under it by 6-10" or so. All air tools, power strip, etc will be in that. Not happening this w/e, I gotta mow the lawn.

Will you be putting in a remote drain on your compressor tank, so you can drain it without having to climb to the attic? Perhaps copper tubing from the tank drain to a valve you can reach from the garage floor.

Good progress on the cleaning and organzation.

Thought about running a single hardline to the foot of the garage for tire/inflatables with a spigot bottom for this. Until I do that, im climbing up :D
