Looks cool. You might think about putting everything on casters. That way you can move stuff out to the driveway for the flooring. My work bench is on rollers so I can use it outside for a table saw extension. Plus all the saw dust goes outside when I'm cutting stuff up.

Great to see someone making good use of space. As cool as the 90x150 buildings (okay... exaggerated) are, it's what you do with 11x20 that really counts!

Look forward to seeing more.

That's looking real good. It seems like the drywall makes it feel bigger, mayube because it brightened it up.

Very nice! Are you able to put your car inside with the workbench in place?

Yes the lighter colors made a huge difference, which is why I'm sticking with light colors with the paint scheme as well.

My F150 will not fit regardless, but my girlfriend's Cobalt fits no problem.

Second skim coat is on...man I hate drywall finishing. Still have a lot of work to do.

I did get the garage door opener back up today.

Started finish coat today...hoping to start priming by Saturday.

Also had the idea today to spray paint the garage door rails and supports black.

Very nice! I am working towards insulation and finishing the walls in a similar size shop (14x21). I can't wait to get my wiring and lights up!

Very impressive garage and workbench, did you say you were integrating something into the work bench?

Yes Harbor Freight 13-drawer toolbox will go on the left side of the workbench. I am waiting to finish the walls to purchase it.

YES! I love it when people make cool cabinets from 2 x 4 and Hardboard. I saw that same project on lumberjocks.com. Very cools

Thanks! It's quite a tank, I'm guessing it weighs about 200lbs.
