I've searched but haven't really found what I was looking for.
Looking for ideas for my shed's flooring. Shed is 10x16 with 3/4 T&G ply flooring on top of 2x6 PT joists. Really sturdy. Without a garage, my shed will be used for as a mini-workshop:
- storage and maintenance on my KTM
- workbench along short wall
- misc organized storage
The shed has been inspired by many of the motorcycle garages (and all the 'regular' garages too!) and I want this to be functional, organized, and a nice space to wrench.
The options I'm thinking about:
- put a couple of coats of paint on it then leave it (I'm not totally loving this because it will continue to feel like a shed, rather than a little workshop).
- VCT - I've been following many of the threads lately on installing VCT, but haven't really seen an application on a wooden floor
- interlocking 20"'x20" 'coin' tile like this http://www.diamond-safety.com/Flexi-Tile-Coin.html
I like the look of this but will end up being the most expensive. Like the idea of it having some depth to it as it should be the most comfortable.
Given the relatively small area, can anyone comment on these options or suggest others? Won't be doing the floor for another few weeks yet, so I've got some time to think about it.
Thanks as always everyone.
Matthew.
