I had put up Gladiator stuff in my last garage and kept my cabinets so I'm baked into their mounting system.

I'd previously posted what I put up in the corner near the Moupe. This summer, I put some up by the other cars. I haven't gotten to completely organize things yet, though, and plan to order another small cabinet for near the Moupe. Al the shovels (so many shovels...more than shown here since the pix are old) and landscaping stuff are now hanging from the newer section.

I like the cabinets a lot, I just couldn't justify paying that much more for some cabinets. Have sunk a lot of money into a brand new house already trying to get it all personalized... much more than I had expected to!

Even without the cabinets I am a big fan of the track wall already. It is a pretty robust storage solution!

I will use for my garage walls and one 16 sq ft section for my workbench in the basement, all for $70.

My (now finished) project

lsturbointeg · 11-05-2019, 03:29 PM

spent time over the Weekend working on the basement room. because the ceiling was removed I had to finish up some of the wall to extend to the top of the floor above using drywall. the closet I removed I finished up redoing the wall since it had to be repaired along with a nice round corner. already sanded and applied 2nd coat of joint compound. once it's dry it'll be time to break out the hopper and apply texture. wait for that to dry than paint!

i'm gonna say i'm very pleased with the flat black ceiling and how it turned out. can't wait to continue this throughout the basement

I hear ya. I was already invested in the cabinets. No way was I going to leave those behind in my townhouse!

Yeah, it adds up quick! I've spent too much on tools and equipment that I didn't have before (table saw, router, etc...) so I can start doing more stuff myself (or at least do some things easier). I'm also going to play around with building some furniture myself. Lucky for me, I like simple and clean lines. Plus, wifey is on a kick for modern/rustic so any mistakes in finish will be labeled as 'rustic' by me. lol

Yeah same here. We have wire shelving in all of our closets and in the walk-in pantry that I am going to be building shelving and drawers for so I am currently justifying a few tools I do not have yet like a nicer planer, table saw that will take a dado blade, and plate joiner to name a few.

Because I got so much love for my Project, here some vids of it. Btw, the Manufacturer is Brustor

PoorLurker · 11-06-2019, 07:12 PM

Wow! Some really cool projects here! I can't wait to get my garage redone!

I was on Bruster website and they do not show the sliding glass panels, it talks about the various movable sun shades but do not show the glass, is that something you added or do they offer that as a package, I would image the glass panels add some significant costs.

Brustor does not install themselves, but partners. They offer and install lots of different glasses. Mine was +14k

Home project 2019

Bongoxxx · 11-10-2019, 11:26 PM

Slowly finishing the basement....

Insulated all the walls with R30 for additional insulation (R20 already installed) Laid dri-core subfloor before installing the pergo extreme vinyl flooring - the planks are 72”x10”.

KEF speakers all around with Marantz receiver.

Cheapest quote i received was $35k which did not include the stonework and fireplace or all of the custom wiring.

So far including all of the wiring, fireplace, stone work and TV/audio/speakers I am all in for $11k. Man, you can save yourself a lot of money if you’re handy

Just waiting for some hardware to install a glass railing for the upper level and planning on staining the stairs tomorrow.

hooligan_G01 · 01-02-2020, 07:25 AM

Fireplace reno complete. Masonry painted (the original roman brick was kind of an ugly tan color and they had painted the mortar joints black) and Mendota gas insert installed.

Before:

Next up, hardwoods throughout the main living areas, kitchen and master bedroom and a full kitchen gut and replacement.

That project should start mid-Feb. We have already purchased the new refrigerator and range (GE Cafe).
