Hey all,
We've had our house for 18 years but have now outgrown it so the family has bought a larger home with a triple car garage.
Whereas our old house has a double garage, it is a fairly small one and I couldn't do much in it.
My new garage is completely finished inside including a natural gas heater and 10 foot ceilings. Other than that, it is a blank slate.
I've already purchased most of my cabinets (not going to go with the uber expensive ones) from Rona, where they were on sale this week:

I've purchased (and already installed) two overhead storage units:

I put them sixteen inches apart, above the single overhead door. I then connected them with aluminum bracing and put an extra wire shelf on that, so the total dimension of the rack is now 45" x 106". I can store lots on there.
I am going to put up three sections of slatwall: two at 4x8 and one at 4x4.
Thinking also of a TV and stereo.
That's all my winter project.
I've been lurking here for about a month and already have tons of information and ideas. Thanx.
