I built a house and got moved in a couple of months ago. I have been working on getting the basement garage finished and got a good bit of work done last weekend. Things are almost done so I figured I would post some pictures. Thanks to fellow forum member "dittle fart around" for the great deal on the newage cabinets.

haha I had some friends over yesterday and they said they could eat off of it also. I used 2 coats of supercoat epoxy and used their commercial 2 part sealer as the top coat to get the shine. The pictures don't do it justice.

I hired the folks that painted the house to do it. I did the storage room (door by the sink) but the stuff was so thick and hardened so quickly I hired a crew to do the workshop and the upstairs garage. I have put down water based epoxy with no problem by myself but this stuff needed a couple of people to do it right.

What do you use all those pipe clamps for? In my experience, no matter how many you have you are always one short.

By the war, good looking shop. Almost too nice to work in. Hopping you will.

Thanks. I probably don't need all of those clamps but in the past I have mostly used them for speaker building. As the old saying goes, you can never have enough clamps. :D

Very Nice! what brand flooring?
Thanks! The flooring is Supercoat and I used their commercial glaze coat for the top coat. I got the epoxy kits at Sam's. The kits come with a glaze coat but I bought the 2 part commercial top coat from amazon.

Absolutely beautiful!

Dare I say, with all that space, you'd definitely benefit from a free standing bench somewhere. I love the way you have the work bench and cabinets arranged. And a free standing bench would be a very useful addition for those lager parts that need to over-hang the bench on two sides.

The floor looks killer too!
