Wow. Must **** being you. I don't even have a concrete floor. You ****!

Congrats on all the nice cabinets. Be sure to show the finished product. :)

Let me start by saying this would probably be a lot easier with help :) Also when you have drywall done you never notice how many bows your walls have :)

A little tip I came across when my wife suggested I use it When wall mounting these big lockers using a palate jack is very helpful. Still undecided on final layout but I have 3 lockers mounted.

Time for some dinner and wine to get my back happier

MAN you have your hands full. Looking really good there - it's a fun problem to have. What are you doing with your floor? Reminds me of mine and I have to think about doing polished concrete - I'm loving it!

Heh, try sheetrocking an original Trinity that was built under British rule over the original plaster & lath. I got good with my ruler and knife that's for damn sure. LOL

Uh oh, no final layout and the wife is helping ?!?!

I hope you're not having to constantly move and rearrange cabinets when she thinks "this might look better over there."

She has a good eye, I have a bunch of low windows that are screwing with me. If I had my way I would frame them up and just go to town, She is not having any of that.

I look like a junkie with all the bruises on my arms from picking these things up. Having fun with it and can't wait to finish.

I am on the fence for flooring, slab has a bunch of cracks in it, want epozy but may end up with Swisstrack (not my first choice) The rafters were done to gain some height with hopes to put a lift in here, Id love to put an inground scissor in I have only 10"11" to the drywall now so not sure it will happen.

One of the reason I am mounting the cabinets on wall is to not have to move them ever again no matter what I do with the floor.

Thanks for the offer, this garage is in so cal, Part of the fun doing it alone is I have to figure out how to do it alone. If I had help I am sure I'd be drinking more and screwing up even more. :)

Pallet jacks are awesome! Nice layout and cabinets.

Only thing that made this possible. Wall mounting was a **** ton more work that I'd imagine. The wall board was so crappy not one plumb line or square anything I had to fir with plywood to get it worthy of the new cabinets

Fawk. That's impressive.



.

Thanks, years of dreaming to get to this point. Pretty damn happy with these cabinets after lamenting for 2 years searching and searching every brand from quality to price point. Do not think there is another metal cabinet on the market at this price point that compares. Rarely any I happy with a final decision like I am with these Newage cabinets

Did I forget to say these bastards are heavy? Zero help has taken me to this point. Getting there....



That looks great - fill those cabinets up. While you're at it, your air compressor just seems to be woefully out of place for those cabinets, lol.

HAHHA wish my wife saw it that way, I have had this compressor for 21 years never done one thing to it and it still works :) Sure Id like a nice more modern one for sure, but I need to take baby steps :)

If you are thinking of wall mounting them the palate jack really really helps a ton. I had an elcheapo one that I believe I got at ULINE or Harbor freight back in the day, I looked and didn't see them at harbor freight but ULINE did have them
