The Extra Costs. New boat home.

You should really be proud T. They've really done a great job.

I like spending others people money so let's do a black and white checkered epoxy floor

Haha, well you can't see because the floor is dirty from washing out the saw dust from cutting the floor, but I had them finish it smooooth. They run the spinning trowel machine to the point of almost burning the top. It'll shine when clean. I did my attached garage the same way. Cleans with an air blower. Very easy to hose out.

Next, overhead doors later next week.

I have to drop my boat off to my dealer to install the sliders on the EZ fold Bimini so I can get it inside.
I'm not good at trusting others to do the job on my stuff right.. aside from being naturally paranoid that most young techs couldn't care less, I have real reservations about my dealer's service dept.
I guess we'll see.

My garage floor is like that also. Be careful when it gets wet. It's slippery as all heck. Mine started to wear off about year 5. I love the looks and durability of professionally laid epoxy floors though. Most of our company shops are done that way. They last a long time. I wish I was thinking when we built I would have had it done right away. Your garage is looking beautiful though. I like the touches you've made to it. A well thought out garage forsure.

It really is a good-looking building and we have all enjoyed seeing it go up right along with you! Pretty cool for a thread that you just threw on the wall because you didn't think they would be much interest.

36 x 45 is probably something close to what I'm going to build at my place one day. Mine will probably be closer to 40 by 60 with 14 foot Eaves and 3 doors down the long side. This fall I'll be putting up a 25 x 20 carport as it seems like I've always got two or three trader car setting around waiting to sell, but I'll also use it to put my boat temporarily until the new slips or built at the lake, then it goes back into dry storage during the winter and on the dock during the summer!

I wish I could take credit for the look, but this one of many areas where my wife Wendy shines a lot brighter than me .. she has designed almost everything we've built, including our store lay out and our house. She is just a natural at making something look and work perfectly. The garage took her all about 10 minutes to design the dormer, door style, colors, windows. I just tell her what I want, and she usually nails it on the first try.

My issue with an epoxy floor is this:
I plow snow. Not commercially, but for my parking lot, home etc.

Northerners can relate to this..
When I park the truck, all of the ice/sand/dirt crap, better known as snirt that collects in the wheel wells and undercarriage end up melting and falling on the floor in ugly dirty clumps. I simply back drag the floor with the plow and pull out most of the crap when I leave. My plow is over 1,100 lbs, and this would peel up that beautiful epoxy floor.
Imagine that thing on a nice floor.

I see. Good point. There's always a reason behind everything

[AsLan7]

I'm not a truck guy but I could certainly get behind that one, T. --especially during a Pittsburgh winter.

Beautiful!

Is that picture recent Tusc? The leaves are already down there?

[Tuscany]

No, last fall.
It's the only pic I had of the floor ripper..

We haven't owned cars in 35 years.. probably never will again.
I've always done my own plowing. Lake effect is the worst. I can plow our store four times in one day when it hits our area.

I'm still old school shovel.

Not even a snowblower!


Feel free to stop by T!

Haha, I plow a lot for free. Don't mind it at all.
One neighborly thing I can do. I hate to see older people shovel snow.

[Southernboatman]

I want one! Man cave garage I mean, not snowplow super truck. Ok I want one of those too! Oh I hear you on the floor but a concrete stain then maybe with a sealer over? Won't peel up for sure. Looks good and especially nice touch for man cave party houses. I was going to mention at least garage floor paint/epoxy with sparkles but see be covered that pitch already. The stained is popular down here right now but mainly for residential mostly outside but some even inside.

See Tusc? It really doesn't matter what YOU want. It's all about what WE want. It's really about about US. Nobody can spend your money better than we can, because we really know what's best. For you. For US.

And when we get there, we're all going to line up and do the Conner McGregor strut around the inside, just like you do everytime you fill that bad boy boat up at the local gas station.
