Hey Chuck

Awesome garage and layout! I too collected beer cans when I was younger and now they're all boxed up in storage. How did you do the wall mount display for your collection?

Go BOSOX!

Mike

Those are can totes, you can buy them from the BCCA. I just used a 1" washer and screwed them into the studs. They each hold 48 cans
 
Thanks Chuck, didn't know the BCCA was still around. Thanks for the mounting tip for the can totes too.

I'll post a couple of Pics of mine it is a 30x48 Pole barn unfinished inside. To say I am not as neet or organized as most of you would be an understatement.;LOL
this is when it was being built 9 years ago

the lift, the best $2000 for tools I have ever spent very seldom sits idle.

I plan on finishing up the walls and putting a some barn siding on the rafters in once I finish the YT I have a big problem with the birds, they can get in thru the slider. Since I am hosting a BBQ/Pit stop for Cruise-fest I will be putting all projects on hold and cleaning up so I will post more pictures next week.

This is am ongoing project. I don't think I will ever have it done.........since I am constantly thinking of new ideas. It's my hobby I guess.
 
Very cool Likarok, I liked the checkered floor/wall
 
Check out the current (August) issue of "Corvette Fever" - it has more pictures of mine than I can post here :) .

btw this may help, most garages need a welder or a lift, sooner or later so youll more than likely need a 220 volt outlet (30-100amp)
this wiring stuffs not hard to do, but use the correct gauge wire and the correct plugs and sockets for the application and ID strongly suggest useing a MINIMUM of 10ga wire for 110volt and 3/4" metalic conduit (use the correct single breaker rating for the application on the 110 volt)
110 v outlet end
black/power to the gold screw
white/neutral to the silver screw
green/ground to the green screw
110v at the box
black/power to breaker
white/ neutral to neutral bar
green/ ground to ground bar
and 4 GA on the high amp 230 volt applications,like WELDERS, little 230volt stuff like compressors and lifts get along fine with (4) 10 ga wires (use the correct dual breaker rating for the application on the 220 volt)
220v at the outlet
red feed to one hot
black feed to one hot
green to ground on plug
(optional but HIGHLY RECOMENDED)
second green to the conduit ground screw
220v at the box
red to one side of DUAL breaker
black to one side of DUAL breaker
green/ ground to ground bar
optional green/ ground to ground bar
