Air manifolds. Air lines ran behind walls with the compressor in the storage room.

Man that is coming along nicely! I'm jealous.
Now you're just showing off. :mad:Quote:

We have done a ton ourselves. I'm tired of working on it! I'm sick of insulation and my garage looks like an electrical supply store exploded! Getting close and can't wait to start using it. Boat will come home Wednesday.
Try spending 3 years on a project, like I did in 2000. Pulled off a single car garage, and attached a double car garage and sun room. I thought I'd never be done. Only thing I didn't do myself was the foundation, pad, driveway, windows and stucco.Quote:

Brick for the frontnt was delivered right after this. All that has left is brick and the door opener on the boat side, plus a little electrical that we will finish up in the storage room side for the compressor, drill press, and belt scanner. Sooo close. Paint may not happen for a while!
^^^^looking good!!
For the truck side did you have them add track so the garage door would be up out of the way when open? If not before installing the garage door opener I would ask about it. Your head might thank you later, nothing like being in the bed of the truck to stand up and hit your head.Quote:

The only thing that I question is .... Isn't it a little redneck to have Christmas lights on a Tyvek building ;)
Geesh - nothing gets by you guys!Quote:

Btw....slow updates now. I got the whole building trimmed out in 1x4 rough cedar. Finishing up the big doors when I can move boat out.
As far as the doors, all the tracks on all the doors are high lift and go straight to the ceiling, which with the drop down for the curve they are all 13ft from the floor! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/11/aby6azug.jpg

Good stuff!!!
Looks awesome. I need something like that.
Custom sizes, and expensive. I didn't want the responsibility if something happened during installation, dropped and broken. Just as well. Some of the stuff didn't fit right and it was the contractors headache.Quote:

With our property drive thru isn't an option. The rear door is just for airflow and view!

ah.. probably not much need for airflow right now :)
That looks awesome! (especially with the X-mas lights!) Nice job!Quote:

And now my wife wants me to build her the interior for her walk in closet (kind of being a princess if you ask me)
Again, looks great! How did you wire up your TV? do you have a coax home run into the house? Did you install ceiling speakers? When is our first "Garage Party"?
Looks great Dusty!
We've got brick! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/19/y4u3are5.jpg

My dad has had a stack of these old Texas bricks laying around forever, he was planning on using them if they ever built again and gave me one too use. It's dead center between the doors. Turned out great! They are installing the opener on the boat side today.
And I don't think i ever replied regarding the doors. All 3 are insulated garage doors. We didnt do roll ups. All 3 are highlift and turn at the ceiling so they are all way up high when open. I had the workers open them all the way and cut the track a few inches past where the door stops so its clean on the ceiling and not cluttered with unnecessary track.
I did run a coax line from the house for the tv. My work bench will go below the tv with the reciever inside it.
We are getting really close!
Everything's Bigger when it comes to Texas! Even bricks!!
Looks great man!! I'm jealous!
Nice touch. Really looking good.
Really nice all around. Gotta say I would LOVE a shop like that for Christmas!
So do you have much room behind your truck while it's in there for the workbench?
(looks like you've got a great view of the big screen from the bed of the truck. Redneck tailgatin right there!)
Looks awesome Dusty! I am officially jealous!
Eeeetz BIG! I like it.
Thanks fellas! We are crazy excited about it. I've got about 10 ft from rear of truck to back wall.
When I can get everything in place I'll post up a few more shots!

You can never build them too big. I did 28x34 and figured I'd have plenty of room. Pack in my duramax, the mooma, RZR, lawn mower, workbench, tools Shelving, fridge, yada yada yada and I barely have any room to roam. I'll have to update my garage thread with some pics one of these days. I need a 40x60 :)
nicely done sir

Got the boards hung up. Easy for end of the day clean up and lake day loading!

Great idea on that rack, I have to steal that one!! What kind of pipe did you use? Wonder if PVC would be better to not scratch the boards??Quote:

get some swim noodles from the dollar store, cut em down, and slide them over the pipes...violla, instant board protection.
