Here's a couple of pics of my garage, its a small 2 car located in the city limits of Houston but it gets the job done for me. Just has all my tools, a beer fridge, a small work surface with some storage, 5.1 surround sound, single part epoxy coating (Acid etch, primer, base coat, spackle, clear coat) 2 fluorescent lights placed where I can see under the hood with the hoods are open. Believe it or not I put both cars in here every night with just enough room for me to open the driver side door to get out.

And the secret to keeping the garage clean is a shed in the backyard. Best $800 I have ever spent!!!

ORedRoc4...kinda looks like my garage!!! Mine was concrete when I first got it and I spent a weekend laying down epoxy and hanging lights and running wires and now it's all homey and it's nice to work on stuff in it now...before it sucked!

I have that same workbench..... great for a smaller garage and Sears puts them on sale all the time. Just don't put anything wet on the surface or the board will suck it up and swell.
