Thanks everyone!
Yes the urinal is functional! It is a must have when all the guys are over drinking watching the game, or when I'm working on the car and I'm dirty I don't have to track it threw the house. The wife loves it for that reason haha.
The floor is an epoxy floor. But it's not the cheap **** you buy a wal mart.. It's from a company called garage strategies, it's a three part epoxy, then you clear coat it. I bought extra extra extra chips to make it pop more. It's very tough, I've dragged transmissions and heavy **** across it, doesn't scratch.. Would definitely do it again.
Now, I'll tell you all about the details you can't probably See.
There's 25 4' fluorescent fixtures, ceiling is stucco'ed to match inside the house, all corners are done in round corners to match the house. HD satellite, PVR, XBOX, 12" Subwoofer, 5.1 surround sound, with all in-wall speaker's. 60 gallon air compressor inside the house ddownstairs next to the washer and dryer haha.. Just the hose reel in the garage, so when I'm wrenching and the music is cranked I don't hear the compressor going off randomly.. And it doesn't take up space. Just switched one leg of the 240v beside the hose reel.
That's all I can really think of off the top of my head. Thanks for the kind words! Lots of planning and work went into this man cave!
Ps- and of course It's painted Vancouver Canucks colors!

Just finished it on Friday night, and parked my Formula at home for the first time on Saturday. Feels good to have it all done.

Just for reference... This is what it looked like 2 months ago:

I just bought a place that has this heated and insulated shop. I'm so looking forward to not working in the driveway, I need to get a lift ordered, one will be going in as soon as I move in.

Heres my humble slice of pie. I'm currently talking with a contractor about building a new home, and attached to it is a 16x40 tandem with a recessed scissor lift.

my current is more organized now, its pretty messy in this pic.

Subscribing, awesome thread for getting ideas. Building another home soon and the garage behind the house will be an important factor.
