Re: Video Tour of My Garage Set-up

Your garage is great! An m3 is a great dd. Love the gt3 and the car seat in the front! I started reading your post on rennlist. Absolutely amazing. I'm also into crossfit. Nice yellow nanos.

I'm here thanks to the Garage Tour vid, I've also watched/listened to a few of your other videos from the Obsessed site.

Thanks for sharing everything so far, and I can't wait to see more from you. I've been told that I might have OCD, although not professionally or medically. Maybe I will go that route in case I really do need some help. I can relate with some of the things you've shared about feeling anxious, compounding anxiety, etc.

Back to the garage: Love the setup, you've definitely given me some ideas. I also want the surgical suite/operating room appearance.

+1... Haha, well said... Luckily no surgery in my garage, people would die from sepsis afterwards

How do you find the flooring when your'e detailing? Im assuming you do all your drying outside and then roll the cars back in; I'd be afraid of getting an excessive amount of water/cleaner under the tiles

Nice garage its come a long way. I love those cabinets I just might have to give those a try after my shop is finished.

 

[rscott22]

Love everything about this garage, this is what I call perfection.

 

[wu6fiend]

Very nice result, indeed.

I love the cabinets.

I have a question regarding the twin wash buckets (shown earlier in the thread) with wheels. Where did you get those?

Thanks man! OCD has always seemed like a blessing to me. That was until anxiousness took over for a few months. I'm learning more each day how to harness it.

I love the flooring. It's great that dirt falls underneath it and is hidden. The tiles are channeled so that water can run underneath them.

Check out my site I'm working on creating for crazies like us.

Loving the microfiber stash! Great thread, you also seem to have more supplies than a hardware and auto store combined.

I was messing around with my Fenix flashlight learning how to light paint. It is better to use a stick light, but I don't have one. It's amazing how easy it is. Set the camera to 20sec exposure and walk around with a flashlight. Look very fake/HDRish but pretty cool.

And a few extras I shot with the lights on.

 

[55cadillacking]

Wow, just wow.

 

[HemiRamOn22s]

Very nice. Your garage is so clean I wouldn't even want to work in there!

 

[TexZ]

Your hard work has paid off, fantastic garage.

 

[CodeRedZ]

Awesome garage, very clean. I like the flashlight pic idea, I might have to try it.

 

[neilc]

Fantastic thread. Love the lighting technique. Could you explain a bit more how you did that?

Thanks for the attention to detail and your willingness to share so much !

It actually pretty easy. Your camera needs to be on a tripod, set to 25 seconds shutter speed at about 5.0 aperture. Then you simply "paint" the car with a flashlight until the camera clicks. That's it.

Your title says "temporary garage". Is there still plans for a separate "permanent" garage? I can't imagine how deluxe it would be!

I'm in the process of buying a new house. I'm working on the "permanent" design.

Thanks to Matt and his thread.
I also bought Saber cabinets too.
You cant beat them for the money.

 

[gtr cook]

Some really nice pictures of the cars.

Have been following your videos on You Tube, when are the new wheels going on the M3? Am eager to see how they look.

Keep up the great work!

 

[foxtrotlima556]

Hey Matt! I found your GJ thread. Been following you on Youtube for a little while now. Really love how the garage turned out. I can't wait to see whats next. Im in love with the GT3 by the way.

 

[Money2536]

You should make the trip up to hang out!

 

[west_perf]

Hey man glad you're back on here. Sign me up for a hangout sometime, I'm trying to learn all I can about Porsches, the soon to be Mrs wants a 911

 

[foxtrotlima556]

Definitely! Ill shoot you a PM.

1) Your garage audio setup is 100x better than my home setup.
2) Where do you keep all the **** that ends up in a garage like bikes, yard tools, etc? Do you have a shed hidden out back?

 

[foxtrotlima556]

Matt - Any issues running the AVR out in the garage? I am planning out my audio and video setup and I am curious how these AVRs handle our Florida heat and humidity.

The setup on the M3 looks spectacular! Those new wheels are Money.

Maybe I missed it but what function do the air king fans serve? I had one in the last home gym and had to use a router speed control to slow it down. Thanks

Just to cool it down since I live in FL.

Where you purchase the red shelves for gallon bulk containers? I found the Griot 16 and 32oz bottle holders but cannot seem to find the other shelves you have.

Griot's stopped making them years ago. I'm not sure why because they are awesome.

Matt: I thought of you during a recent meeting in my current job - we are involved in a telecom small-cell deployment, and some of the locations require external, ground mounted cabinets. The manufacturer? SABER.

Hope all is well. We are getting Florida-style rain in the Midwest.

I just requested to join your FB Group. I too am starting my new project and share similar OCD traits etc... as you ;-) Just moved into our new home on the 17th. My silver Saber Cabinets will arrive Thursday. Swisstrax is on order. I am so excited to get started and very eager to follow your next project.
