Wow looks pretty good, looks like a pretty decent size building, what are the dimensions?? and idea of a price it cost to build? was it a kit or did you buy the plans from somewhere, that looks pretty nice, wish I had space like that!

Few pix of the vettes that will be stored..im in the process of building a "storage garage" next to this to install a lift to keep them there..

Looking good AR...I like the seville cabinets at Sam's Club...they are "some assembly" required and made in China, but the quality and appearance are top notch for the price. FYI.

ARbuilder223 · Oct 13, 2011

Thanks..ill have too look into them, was trying to find clearanced kitchen cabinets and paint them..just dont want to spend an arm and a leg..

flybefree · Oct 13, 2011

Yep...that is they way I am going to go...I am CL hunting for some vintage metal cabinets that I can paint up. I have a few seville cabinets in the garage and they are really nice.

ARbuilder223 · Oct 13, 2011

I agree -- i have been considering the Seville cabinets too due to the positive reviews i have read on here - The price is very good - but you have to put them together--
I think ultimately the durability would not be as good for super heavy loading as a welded up cabinet , but depends on your needs. If you are stacking case after case of 5.56 ammo or something --- some super heavy duty warehouse type stuff would be in order -- but if its just keeping medium weight stuff out of sight, they might work great for you
f

Baldhead cabinets are super **** at the other end of the price spectrum

The company below has a ton of different choices at prices in between cheap and expensive -- i got the link from the home page here too

ARbuilder223 · Oct 13, 2011

Nighttrain · Oct 25, 2011

AR, I had missed your build until today. Very nice. I really like the drop ceiling. That will really help with the cooling/heating.

Ulti-Mate cabinets are made of particle board. They have a very nice finish but after a year on my site I hadn't sold any. Check out the Coleman / New Age line of 18 gauge cabinets. They're Modular so they cost much less than Baldhead cabinets.
