Beautiful space.  Hope the finish is progressing well.

Any update on the progress?

Slab came out well.   Painted the beam. 

 

Stairs built.   Interior paint getting done. 

 

The little door is for jack stands, Jacks,  stuff that can roll in. The is bigger door on left top put compressor under stairs.   30a 220v power already there. 

 

Concrete wall painted. 

 

 

Stairs painted. 

 

 

Storage side upstairs.   Rubber mat flooring coming this weekend.

 

Flooring install started in exercise/office side

 

Outside stairs started.  Will be a small deck area

 

 

 

Pressure is on!   We have to move into the house associated with the garage in three weeks. There was a lot of construction going on in there too....

When can I move in?

All that AND moving into the house??  wow... How's your blood pressure holding up? 

 

The shop is fantastic.  Very jealous, indeed.

Yes.  This property is about a block from our current residence.  While I was busy with the shop,  wife was busy managing the remodel of the inside of the house.

that sure simplifies things...

 

I hope the new neighbors don't throw a fit when 1/2 the FAQ members roll in and crash the open house party.

Moving has begun.   New shop not ready,  but old house has contract on it and we have to get out. 

 

Sad.   Several bmw and Mazda race cars have been born here.   Many cars have had trama care or check ups here.   And several 2002s have had autopsies and organ transplants done here.   Now it is almost empty for first time in 15 years. 

 

 

It is good to have a spare trailer available.   Everything from my shop is now temp stored in 26ft trailer.

Quite the storied history in that garage. Your new garage is what the old garage wished it could be.

You are so lucky.  When I re-did the garage, all of the cars went to temporary storage, and all of my stuff was under 2 tarps on my back porch.  And it rained.  Twice.  One of those times was "Epic Flooding Houston" times.

 

Sad isn't right.  More like Bittersweet.  Time to make some new memories in your fantastic new shop sir.

Think I've spent almost more hours in that shop than in my garage....

new shop should be a bit more comfortable Jim...

 

mini-split head units went in today.  and the 12, 8ft LED light fixtures.

 

 

 

and the trex deck and stairs are about done.
