My garage gets in full swing!

Ok.

Some progress has been made.

Remember this picture with the question "How am I gonna get that air compressor up there?"

Well, this is how I did it.

That's a winch bolted to the top of my compressor between the motor and compressor.

Anna running around in the back yard while I was doing this.

The sofets are done and most of the trim is done too.

Man door is in too.

Still trying to decide on what material to use for siding. Hardi Plank?

Good thinking on using winch to pull the compressor up into the rafters.

Hope your attic space has a good vent to let the hot air and noise escape.

I'd recommend placing some sound deadening foam (Dynamat?) beneath the compressor to quiet it while running and maybe a washing machine drain tray (plastic) in case the drain valve leaks. You are planning to drain the tank on a regular basis - correct? Out of sight, out of mind.

The Hardi plank siding is a good idea.

You are going all out on the garage. What's next, a remote "starter" for pre-heating the floor?

My dad used Hardi Plank on his garage and he loves it. It's holding up really well too.

John, It that a 4-car tandem garage? It looks really deep, and I'm jealous now. Great job!
