The weather is good today, so I am currently between coats of floor paint and trying to kill 4 hours. But I can't leave the house as all my stuff is lying outside  :rolleyes .


I should have the painting finished today. I have decided to put panels up on the ceiling to help retain some heat and keep the cold out a bit more. I will try get that done in the next couple of days.


Here are a couple of pictures

Well its been about 15+ days graft sorting the foundations, drainage, damp, subsidence, painting it, tossing out the junk, building storage and sorting everything... But I am finally (almost?) there  :D .


Happy as F-O-C!

Loving that new look - reckon a fridge and a kettle will just finish it off  :thumbup :thumbup :thumbup
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.

looking good.....


2 questions, if I may.


Is that a standard size garage?


What have you used to get your bikes off the floor, I've been kind of looking at pulley systems for a while but never got round to making my mind up.

Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys beer, and that helps!

Fazersharp -  :finger :lol . The top and drawers were part of a coffee table that was left in my house when I bought it. I try and recycle when I can.


Harry - I don't know if a standard size garage is a thing, but my garage is nothing out of the ordinary. It takes a fairly large car and two motorcycles, or five motorcycles. The car lives outside  :lol .


I have pulley's for the bikes. Although I would rather mount them vertically on one of the beams as they take up less space that way. A 6in nail would do for that. Or a hook. The pulley's are good, but I often bump my head on the wheels. I also have to remember to turn the crank so that the pedals are out of the way.
