ultimate setup/garage thread
 

People all carry on about where they store their cars and how they are extravagantly decorated and furnished but our boats don't get the same attentioN!
you see some oldschool Rivas and woodys etc in nice sheds but how about some go fast's?

Here you go! Acid staining the floor this weekend then filling it up.

This where we keep the little 27 all 598 cubic inches. Heated and cooled. Not the greatest pic.

Wow that's close! Time to notch that door. I want to build a custom 32x38 so I'm only going over 16 sq. ft over my county limit. Which is no greater than 1200 sq. ft or half the dwelling. I can sneak 16 I think! Haha

Hey i'm on a mailing list for a steel building company that I am looking at buying from an they just sent me a notice on a new building the was ordered but not picked up.its a 80 x 120 x 16 steel I beam building for twenty nine thousand. Seemed like a good deal if anyone is interested I can forward the info

No heat yet, need ceiling and doors insulated first. ![ATTACH=CONFIG]501366[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]501367[/ATTACH]

You guys need to go over to The Garage Journal Form if you want to look at garages. There is 200 pages of garage builts over there. My garage is 48x105x16=5004 sq ft.

Would like to build a nice shop/garage on my property one day, what are the costs for some of these garages? Say 40x60 16 foot garage...?

It's an avalanche and yes it as flame decals. advertising for my business!

Just messin with ya because you asked what was wrong with the photo :D

Building cost was $25k, Slab was $13K for 6" Erection cost was $7k plus electrical

Floor almost done. More cleaning then sealant. Total cost for 2400sqft around $1,000

Looks awesome DM. Nice job. I need 12 acres in N Ga I think. :whistle:

Yes you do!

Obviously anyone who keeps their boat in a garage takes good care of it, we all know what a pain in the azz it can be to vacuum. I sort of installed a central vac by running 2" PVC up the wall and across the ceiling, connect my shop vac to the PVC at the bottom and a 10' long vac hose at the top. It reaches everywhere. I also put a switch on the ceiling to turn the receptical the shop vac is plugged into. For $20 worth of pvc this was money well spent.

48x72x15'6" pole building 28,000.00 installed, (4)14x14 doors 5000.00 installed, 8000.00 for concrete, rebar and wire fabric. Placed concrete and installed electrical myself.

That floor looks great! Is that a slotted drain?

Brilliant. I will be doing this soon. One large ladder hook hanging from the rafter, and a long hose to reach the cockpit and cabin; already planning it out.

If you want a cheap, readily available long hose look for a pool vacuum hose like this: Pool Hoses And Pumps : Pool Supplies - Walmart.com

Only issue is old hoses will crumble if it has been exposed to sunlight/chemicals and they shouldn't kink when new but as they age they might kink under heavy suction. Most of the good ones are tight at both ends where the collar meets the hose but some are just screwed onto the hose.....nothing some silicon/glue couldn't fix.

Yes a self falling drain. You simply install the sections by number and they have built in fall.

That's sweet, county regs. don't allow any floor drains here but I did slope the floor towards the middle in two bays so one may show up in time!!

It's not "ultimate" by any means but it works for me.

40x56x14. I can park the truck and trailer hooked together and still have room to work on other stuff.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I'd kill for that setup. Nice!!

Here mine. 48x105x14

Try $.4167 per square foot. Looks incredible for 42 cents a foot!

you guys got some sweet setups

Yes your math is the correct one!

20' x 55' Commercial storage w/ individual controlled HVAC. They were sold as a plain shell, concrete floor & sheet rocked walls. I had the loft & bathroom added (under stairs)

That floor looks amazing! Does it need to be new concrete to be acid stained or can it be cleaned and etched?

Old concrete works also. The way I understand is if any other acid has been used on the floor it will have to be ground first.

Concrete Acid Stain - LITHOCHROME® Chemstain® Classic from Scofield

So then it would be about 40-45k total correct?
