Hello everyone,
I’ve been lurking for a while and since I just finished up a month of work on my garage I figured I’d better do my part and contribute a few pictures. Sorry, I don’t have any before shots.
A while back I was talking to a buddy about my motorcycle lift. I told him it was great but a bit of a pain getting a big touring bike up on it and I was probably going to build some wooden boxes to put on either side as a place to put my feet when I rode the bike up onto the lift. Or, ideally the lift would be recessed in the floor. “I can do that” he says. “What day are we cutting your floor?”
So, four weeks of work later:
o Cabinets/workbench moved to a different wall
o Lift sunken into the floor
o Walls, ceiling, cabinets repainted
o New shelving built and painted
I’ve got plans for Race Deck flooring next year which is why the lift sits about a ½” above the floor when it’s lowered. More storage and workbench space are also on the future agenda but for now, it’s time to do some work on the bikes.
