Ya, nice job indeed. I'm interested to know the floor tiles you used? I need to do something like that. Cheers, Bill

Not RaceDeck..I didnt like the plasticky sound when you walk on them. The floor is a peel and stick polyvinyl tile by Better Life Technology called RaceDay. I went to a website called garageflooringllc and used their designer to plan the floor then purchased the tiles through Home Depot as it was a lot cheaper that way.

Very easy to apply. Just be sure to do proper prep of the floor (fill cracks and degrease) Took only 1 day paint, 1 day to do the floor start to finish, 1 day to assemble and install the cabinets and a couple of hours to mount the steel pegboard.

Thanks for all the nice compliments!

NICE!!

The only thing missing is a nice lounge chair to sit in while just staring at all that coolness!

What a change for the better...great job!! Timely for me, as well, as I'm in the process of looking to add cabinetry to my garage and hadn't even considered Craftsman until seeing your garage. Something else to investigate. Again, job well done

VERY impressive---X2 on the lounge chair, and maybe a small bar.....it may be the 'coolest' room in the house!

Very nice. BTW the American flag on the cabinet door is displayed incorrectly, stars should be in the NW corner.

Rotate the flag 90 degrees counterclockwise and it is fixed.
