New garage
- Thread starter Fatal Attraction
- Start date
Kalun,
Fluorescent it shall be then!
The plan is to have 6 double 4's, 4 double 8's, and another
3 double 4's over the 2 workbenches. I'll need sunglasses!
The 4's and 8's will be switched separately, as will the
4's above the workbenches.

Bill;
If you have the space (land) make the garage as big as possible. You just canot have enough space and not for junk. I am now building a garage of 48' x 60' and can already plan it all out.
Have fun, remember you are planning for the future (retirement) and yr wife will not want you at home just sitting around.

At the end of the day, the only important thing is what rolls out of it on four wheels ! Frank
John,
If not for the sake of some old growth, silver beech trees,
the new garage would be 24' longer. As it was, the wife
nearly cried, when I took out a couple of dogwoods.
Frank,
Amen!

Wow, that is a "revoltin' display" as my Mom used to say with a smile when she was truly envious.

Keep the suggestions coming...'cause I'm using 'em too... My new garage has been under construction for a little over a year now.... and I'm gettin' antsy 'cause I wanna start movin' my stuff in... sub-contractors just finished sheetrock installation last Friday, drywall & texture is next... messy messy! (dusty dusty I should say) Hopefully it will be finished by summer time.
btw Bill, I did paint the entire structure bright white before the building was skinned... looks very nice... floors in the shop portion will be light gray, Should be pretty cool when completed.
I've got get a lift too... that will be really nice to have.

Jools, good try! but you did only get it up there by composite photography ! I do however like the new anti speed camera rear number plates, can you get me a pair please?
No April Fool Frank , My car was up there for real!! I don't know what Malc and I were thinking/drinking ( sniffing the octain boost again) , but it seemed like a good idea at the time! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
I think Malc hopes this will be the only way my 40 will ever finish above his!!
Magic plates...I wish. Can't you knock up some James Bond type rotating ones in that workshop of yours /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The finished shell. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif Now, on to the interior! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
BTW, the siding isn't warbled. Don't know why it appears
that way. It happened when I reduced the size of the photo.
I'm pretty pleased with the results.
I scored a dozen FREE steel cabinets too!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Gents the foundation is in for the new garage and it was suggested that I install lights in the slab under the lift. The electrical supply houses I called did not know what I was talking about. If anyone has a supplier/link for the lights, it would be appreciated. Same goes for anchors or any other suggestions for things to be installed in the slab. Sink and heat have been taken care of. Thanks.
Gregg, here's a link to some information and links you might find helpfull: Lights in the floor [Archive] - The Garage Journal Board
However, I think most of these in-floor lighting products require that the housings and wires are run prior to pouring the slab.
You can install anchors as an after-the-fact item, however, not the recessed type once the slab has been poured. Bosch makes a nice cement drill for around $299.00 that makes quick work of putting in cement anchors.
