Most guys would be happy to have that much room in a garage. My garage is similar size just not empty.

[Brentocool]

painted the doors and put a stripe on the wall. Not sure if I like the stripe yet. i am going to paint the wall below the stripe a siver/gray. and put red baseboard around. what do you think? I'm also going to have red cabinets

 

[sscustom]

the floor looks sweet

 

[couchmechanic]

The floor Looks great. Does it have a clear coat on it or is it just reflecting light on its own?

 

[Brentocool]

No clear coat,

I like the tacky gas station look. This is really my laundry room

 

[Brentocool]

Installed most of my cabinets .need one 36" wall cabinet and a 15" all drawer base all the way to the right. With a small frige in the middle. I mounted the cabinets on the gas curb and will be installing legs on the front of the cabs. Used menards unfinished oak cabs and counter tops The open area in the center is like a desk area and there will be a flat panel tv on the wall there. Looks like I have some painting to do too. I can feel the end is near. I need some rest!! The wood legs are temporary. And that is a lazy suzan in the corner.

 

[Boosted1]

Looks good. Especially to floor.

 

[Brentocool]

Ok cabs are in @@@@ back to painting

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I used 1/2" carriage bolts for the front legs.( Stainless) Seeing the floor is pitched and the back of the cabs are screwed to the wall sitting on the gas curb. I got lucky the concrete guys did a decent job and they were pretty level. So I could adjust each leg exactly. Too tell ya the truth the cabs were solid just mounted to the wall. But this is better!! Mounting them on the wall on the gas curb gave me two benefits. Got the cabs off the floor for cleaning and saved some space since theres no wasted space behind them.

painting a little every night after work.Hope to have it done by Friday. Then I am gonna trim the cabinet part in polished aluminium And come up with the some cool handles. i have been trying to find athat cool chome trim that they put on tool box drawers?? Cant find it anywhere. I did see chrome car door trim

The tops are done now just have to put the doors back on the other half.Pigture is from earlier! Still have to put a end cap on the bottom lazy suzan.

 

[Brentocool]

I continued the 4" Black baseboard all around the cabinets also. looks really cool and makes them look custom..Today the Tv gets hung.And counter tops get cut and installed.

I like the color of the floor. It's nice to see something than gray.

 

[Brentocool]

It would look better with that Roadster in there but I sold it!!! That seems to be what I do though. Get $$$ for the next prodject. There might be another in my future though. Thought this was a cool pic I took tonight. got my bike back home at least..Tv is in and I have done some decorating.

 

[rickairmedic]

Looks Great Brent and the Harley makes good use of the space .

[Brentocool]

new sign..Screwed up my union card says 83 o well close enough!

 

[Brentocool]

Got me a skeeter net!

 

[rickairmedic]

Good deal Brent honestly I think that may be the best thing I have done to my garage since it allows me to actually hang out out here without being bugged by bugs .

Rick

 

[Brentocool]

It worked perfect!!! The only bites I got were taking it down after the race. thanks for the tip!!

 

[rickairmedic]

You took it down ? Oh wait you actually park cars in your garage . Mine stays up until it gets to cold for bugs to be outside .

Rick

 

[Brentocool]

Today a new storm door on the back

 

[rickairmedic]

Brent I dont know how to tell you this but it looks a little crooked there . Otherwise it looks great and reminds me of something else I need to do to my shop.
