Here's my garage pre-epoxy, just finished the first etching pass...





Here it is finished and ready to dry for the next few days!







Never took some pictures of just the shelving I put up but you can see it in this picture...



And in the back by the door...





Here is my Sears work bench and a peg-board that I just mounted to the cinder block wall.... I also built some shelving in that half-*** closet but you can't see but two shelves of it. There's 4 total shelves, at least I found a way to make use of that damn wasted space!!



Oh and also...don't spill brake fluid on the epoxy....

I'm loving those Sears workbenches... I think I need one!

ORedRoc4 - You're giving me motivation to do something more with my garage. Mine is about the same size and I was plain out convinced that I could do nothing more than park two cars in it. But you laid it out pretty simple and are still able to get two cars in/out. Props!!

I did it all at once! Took me a full 2 days or one weekend. Only because it takes a little while to let the concrete dry and let all the moisture evaporate out of it before you seal it with the eopxy.

I was fortunate enough to be able to get a dyno and hone my skills on my own terms. My ultimate goal is to have a speed shop.

The shop is 40x30 and it sits on my parents property. My dad said if I bought a dyno it could go in the shop.

My day job is really starting to cramp my style though!! All I can think about is getting to the garage and playing on the dyno!

Thanks man. I think my dad is waiting for me to get pissed enough to buy him a shed. Nothing irritates me more than building a 40x30 shop to work on cars and then filling it with lawn equipment and a snowblower.

I like the color of your truck. It gets your attention without burning your eyes the way yellow does. IMO
