thanks!

since last year i got a sidewalk. lots of grass. on the inside so far i just have the store room done. it is drywalled, painted, shelves... gives a feel of how nice the whole garge is going to be. still working with temp lights in the rest of the garage.

i have been working out there quite a bit. i am going to have to set i up with AC for next year.

It's turning out to be the perfect Man-cave. Is it going to have it's own 1/2 address?

Damn nice shop (and house) Parish!

How good does that in-floor heating work???? I want to do that when i build my shop....

That shop is bigger than the house i just bought (1940sqft)... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I bought an empty lot next to my house for a nice shop also.... Now if i can get a permit to build one, that will be the hard part!

If you end up going with fluorescent fixtures make sure you get the T8 fixtures. Looking very good by the way.

with the floor heat you just put tubing in the floor and pump hot water thru it. i dont have it hooked up yet and have never been in a garage with it so i cant say how cool it will be.

i do have an update. i have been working on finishing off the small side of the garage.

the smaller side is 24' x 28'. i split that up into a 8'x14' store room and a 8' x 10' bathroom/utility room and then the rest which is about 19' x 24' is my work shop area. the walls will be lined with tools and there will be a large work bench centered in the front. can lights above the work bench, plazma tv above the work bench. air under the work bench. a silly amount of light and outlets everywhere. there will be a lift and heat on the large side.
