Well - Im a new home owner, and my dad always instilled Craftsman for the lifetime warranty, so I am blindly biased to them, sorry to all the real nuts.

I planned on it, but unpacking took precedence. I need to finish it out, and now will have to do it half the garage at a time :-\ Sometime this summer I hope.


Looked bigger when it was empty didn't it. lol Nice stone work on the exterior.

NOOOOO kidding..... Thought we might fit all 3 cars back when we first saw it. :lol:

Looks like you've got enough space in there to make things fun! Post some pictures of the cabinet layout when you get them up, I'm getting addicted to good storage.

Getting there. Added some really nice cornwell wall mounts (will paint later, before the walls get done) and am now planning on redoing the toolboxes/workbench area. Planning on having the rollers roll UNDER a new workbench, with shelve storage BEHIND the rollers and the top boxes on top of the wrokbench.. the existing bench will shift left of the current spot.

Got the new cornwell in place, the bakers rack and the one Cman tower are going away, and the three (1 not pictured) snap on projects.

Next up is to build an L shaped workbench - thinking 42" high on the left wall and around 39-40 on the rear wall and build shelves to go BEHIND the rolling cabs.. thinking a 30-36" counter depth, so the rollers will have 1.5 feet of space unused behind them - perfect for storing things like the ramps, jack stands, etc.
