your garages
There has been a post for our fellow community's garages before.
We plan to make our garage abit more presentable over the christmas break, the floor needs to be tiled and walls repainted, also additional lighting needed. I remember in the previous post a fellow member had tiled their garage floor and I thought it looked impressive! but I cant seem find where those pictures have gone to, I think it was a owner with a porsche as well and he had framed porsche pictures on his walls.
If someone can get hold of those pictures it would be great, also some suggestions for patterns for the floor would be greatly appreciated.

My garageis much smaller, but I recently started fixing it up too. I didnt like the hard plastic tiles ( i was debating a ceramic tile though) but ended up doing an epoxy, then area mats for the cars. Dont mind the mess, I still wasn't done when the pics were taken.

Did you do the floor your self or have it done? I'm still debating the paint vs old school linoleum tile vs race deck tiles. What didn't you like about the plastic tiles?

Race Deck tiles, took a whole day to to do myself and another day to trim edges, etc. Very proud of the garage, plan on getting rid of a lot of things and putting a TV/DVD/Cable, and lots of pictures.

Dont think the epoxy is paint. I wouldnt say it acts anything like it. I had home depot do it, but they send people from rustoleum to do it (contractors or what not trained by them). They come in, sand the entire garage, fill in cracks with bondo, then do the whole process. You cant park cars on it for 10 days, but you can walk on it after a full day. If you do the clear coat, add another day for them to come back and do that and for it to dry. Now once I had these guys come, they told me they couldve done it for half the price, but then I guess there is no warranty involved, etc.

craftsman tool boxes
1-1/2" bull nosed maple butcher block work counter

Gang,
I live in a townhouse with a 2 car garage
it's just not enough room for my cars and bikes. Thankfully I have a 7500sq/ft. climate controlled warehouse to keep and work on the toys.
The lift really helps when I need to work on the cars. Changing oil and fluids is a snap
