          i do construction and some electrical wiring for special graphics and maintenance. i change gas stations into 7-11's.

          wish i could make money working on cars again like before but unless i magically get a shop and costumers again i wont make much. shops dont pay much at all.

                                Nice, spic and span!!!! What did you use on the floor? I did that in my old garage with some stuff from Menard's but I wasn't to impressed with the overall quality.

                                  My garage floor was done by a company called Premier Garage.  It cost a lot more than any DIY method but every DIY garage floor I looked at pretty much looked like crap and had to be re-done every year or two.  Mine has been in place for 6 years and still looks perfect.

                                  To do my 696 square foot floor plus the short stem walls along the sides cost exactly $3,000 in 2007.

                                      we put this stuff down in our old house in the basement

                                      http://www.diy.rhinolinings.com/

                                      worked really well, where there was a lot of foot traffic sort of "faded" and when we had to slide our fridge it would leave small marks.

                                      but for 85-170 bucks, it was decent and covered up some nasty looking spots

                                      But as for a garage, I could see it getting beat up after a few years from all the traffic, chemicals and such.

                                        Yea, I have seen that stuff before, similar to the stuff they sell at the hardware store.

                                        My garage floor was done by a company called Premier Garage.  It cost a lot more than any DIY method but every DIY garage floor I looked at pretty much looked like crap and had to be re-done every year or two.  Mine has been in place for 6 years and still looks perfect.

                                        To do my 696 square foot floor plus the short stem walls along the sides cost exactly $3,000 in 2007.

                                        That's alot IMO. But I am only renting my space so I try and build everything from dumpsters and other really cheap resources. So im kind of a cheap ass lol!

                                          Finally I have a garage to call my own!! It's nothing special but I'm surprised by how much stuff I've been able to put in here and still have room to work. I'll be tearing into the car starting next week as I finish settling into the apartment.

                                          Car pulled 1/2 out so I have room to work up front

                                          Its tight but I can't complain. Will be nice to work on the car slowly with no rush to get things done.
