here are some new pics. The wife is painting a checkered flag border around the garage for me.

Got 2 of my speakers back in and a coat rack added

Some art work up.

and now it's easier to find the Beer fridge for all of those that walk past it..lol

well i got my entertainment area back together. I painted the shelves red and i'm doing the window surrounds in red as well.

also got rid of that big A$$ stove and scored a pot belly stove to replace it with.

all of these will cover up the 2x6 framing for the windows.

here is the new stove

i added 2 lights under the loft. stupid me of all the outlets i added i didn't put one in the ceiling of the loft for the light.

Got the first stages of the red window trim done i need to get the outside corner molding done next.

well the wood/coal stove is finally hooked up. i had my neighbot come over last night to show me how to burn coal. he got the garage from 52* up to 70* in about 1 1/2hrs.

here's one of my brothers marking the ceiling for the pipe.

here is the first small fire right after we got done.
this thing drafts life a mofo..lol

then fired a wood fire to get it ready for coal

the coal is very hot

very cool build! The white paint definitly brightens the place up, and i really like the red trim around the windows. I hope in my future garage I can get a wood/coal stove also, seems like they work real good and no need to run gas lines out.

well today i finally came out to the garage it was 54* in here with all the wind and snow. Which isn't bad i fired the stove up with the crappy wood i had and got it t0 70* in a few hours while i worked on adding some Garage art and some cabinets that happened to match the colors of the garage.
these posters i've had for about 20 years. my daughter found them in her closet.

well i got most of the window trim done. ran out of wood so i had to get more then paint it all. will finished the last 2 windows tonight i hope. then it's time to trim the doors and the opening into the shed area.

Karen finished the checkered flag border and help paint some of the trim.
Also made some good ground on the chevelle. fixed a few of it's issues.

Well we finally got my drop ceiling done in the garage. It took 10 1/2 hours to do with my brother. We had help from 3 of my friends at different times of the day. It turned out awesome I'm so glad it's done. Well we have to make a panel for the stove pipe.

It looked like a bomb went off in the garage. **** was everywhere. The trash from the new tiles was everywhere.

And here it is all done. I'm going to add another row of lights in that open looking area.

Next it to get the other doors and doorways trimmed out.

 

[intimadatorsquizz]

did some more trim work around the 2 man doors.

also got a 27" Phillips tv from a friend. it was hardly used so i made a shelf for it then covered the front with a nicer piece of wood painted red.

 

[intimadatorsquizz]

did a little bit of work in the garage.
i wrapped the big doorway going into the shed with 1x8's and added 1x3 trim to the outside. i have it tacked up temporary until i get it painted

 

[intimadatorsquizz]

worked on the garage this weekend.
got the last 2 doorways trimmed and painted. i added a shelf about the other cabinets. and i trimmed out the recessed fridge and painted that red as well.
got a few more pieces of plywood put up on the shed side and moved the light switch closer to the doorway.
hung up some other artwork as well.

Great job man! Stumbled upon this thread from the barn saving thread. Funny to read about you as a friend on his thread, then him as a friend on your thread. Def cool. I like how you added on to the existing building. Good work!

 

[intimadatorsquizz]

Thank you.
Yes the monte's are fun. But annoying as well. Lots of money dumped into the 87 and it is still not right.
