I’m having it painted and putting in a Polyurethane floor.
Today was cleaning, prepping and some priming.
I have never had a fully finished garage.

Looks like it will be a nice garage/workshop. My neighbor did something similar. He uses his garage as a workshop. Yet, I will probably look at using a shed for a workshop. My other neighbor has power and Internet cable ran to a shed. He uses it as a home office for teleworking. He had a ductless HVAC installed. So, he uses it all year round.

It's going to be a nice space. You should enjoy your time in it. I miss my dream shop in Virginia, but am doing fine in the space I adapted in Oklahoma. Spray foam insulation, better lighting, and a mini split, and I'm good.

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

That’s awesome coach. Your cabinets are making me

with envy. As others said, looking forward to pics of both the progress and the finished project.

We put the cabinets in right after we bought the house 24 years ago.
They still look good.
Thanks for the compliment.

Do like the cabinets. Also like the finish picked out for the floor.

Day 2: It was a mud day. Doesn’t really look very different.
The paint will be done tomorrow and the polyurethane floor will be done Thursday. They said the floor is a one day project. When it’s finished it’s a 48-72 hours cure time. We are going to wait 72 hours…
