[Balzy]

[Balzy]

No, not the sink, the homemade urinal on the right!!!!!!!!!!

[Balzy]

Had to fire her just once and smell that smell again. Ahhhhhhhhhhh, gotta love it..........

[Balzy]

Oops, how did that get there?????????????:confused: :confused: :confused: ;)

[Kevin from FL®]

ROFLMAO, great job Balzy! Gotta love that urinal :D

Hopefuly, good aim for that urnial---hammered nice mess...:D

[Superdave]

I was thinking about iling my garage, but was concerned about oil/gas or something eating the tile. What kind did you use, commercial tile? What about glue, standard tile glue? My other option is to paint it with epoxy.

Is the urinal the window or the drinking fountain?

[FCnLa]

Hey, which dentist office did you steal the "spit sink" out of?

I see the recliner........nice living room!!!!:D

[Scott]

I thought the urinal was an eye wash station....ugh!
Great lookin shop! Trees, recliner, great rig....I could spend some time there!

I just did my garage with black and white tile 3 weeks ago.
Yours looks a little nicer, though. I used 12" Armstrong VCT tile.
Thought about epoxy, but is more work and not as durable.

Hardest part was getting the floor clean. Years of dirt and oil had to be removed. Oh yeah, did it in one day and my freakin' knees killed me the next day. Gotta use pads!

The VCT (vinyl composition tile) is commercial grade that resists gas, oil, dog piss, whatever. Also does not dent too easily, and cheap and easy to replace if one does get damaged.

I have joked with my wife that the urinal is next, but I did get the white baseboard and crown molding. Painted the cinder blocks white, the sill plate, doors, and shelves gloss black. The walls are semi-gloss light green.

TV swivel bracket on the wall next, as well as stereo system that the wife has banished from the house.

Need to find a place for a parts washer and small fridge for the beer.

Balzy, you got a sink, what do you need the urinal for? Multi-purpose fixtures save space. :D

[Rickracer]

When you tell the hotel clerk that you've got a leak in the sink, and they say OK, go ahead. :D

[NPK2003]

Wow! Crown molding in the garage. Now that's class! Next you'll be telling us about the crystal chandlier hooked up to your garage door opener which in turn starts up the surround sound stereo system playing Hail to The Chief! You guys are too much, but I love it.

:cool:

[Balzy]

all the stuff I just bought for the shop today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D :D :D

[RichS]

Nice "Shop" Balzy. My wife would love it if mine looked like that, but it ain't gonna happen in this life. To much stuff to do and not enough time........... But hey, ya wana race?!!:D

[Talon2.5]

great place to work in and hang out in, looks like the wife will be a "shop widow" now, by the way where in there can i put the talon so it stays dry???:eek:

[Balzy]

that reads "WHEN I AM PISSED OFF AT JANET ROOM" There is a two car attached to the front of the shop with a 16' insulated door between them. 1350 square feet total. I am sure we could find room for your Talon.:D :D

[Cp]

...those $50K 'Garages', eh Balzy? I made the
mistake of having my builder break out the cost
of my measly oversized attached 3-car (26x32). The cost of the concrete alone made me cringe. I burned that break out sheet before the wife saw it.

Enjoy the new play room, buddy!!!

Cp

[Balzy]

The 5 car was already there attached. Bought it that way. 3 year old house. Guess there's not a lot of nuts like us in Kiel in the market for a house right now and that's why I got a pretty good deal on it. Nobody wanted a 5-car garage. :confused: What's wrong with these people? They gottsa be the ones that are nuts !!!!!!!!!! :eek: :eek:

[Cp]

Seller REALLY needs to get his priorities straight.

[Scott Gilmore]

Rich, there's a guy over on the Hot Boat board (outboard forum) that claims he has a 123mph HST with a 2.5 :confused: . Might wanna look him up , bet he'd race:eek: ! Scott :D

[Talon2.5]

i have a 5 car garage but it's in my DREAMS :D

[Looper]

With heat, sink, urinal? Damn, that's almost bigger than my first house total sf.

I have the subdivision 2 car garage that barely fits 2 cars (trucks), or a boat and a car. (with shortened trailer tongue.)

Next house I am setting the priorities right. On the water, with a 3 car garage. If any money left over, then we'll worry about how nice the rest of the house can be.

[ShorePounder]

That garage is too nice to do any work in. Heck I'm just happy to finally have a garage. I haven't gotten around to decorating it. Someone tried to at my New Year's Eve party. Took MY red spray paint and painted a Chevy Bowtie on the back wall, right behind my '71 Charger. Guess who was painting their garage wall New Year's day. :eek:
