    Finally, the new garage is completed

    Handed them the final check today. Took nearly six months to complete a building with no wiring, insulation or sheetrock.
    Now I have to get busy and wire it up, install air lines, HVAC and plumbing fixtures.

    The fun begins.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    With the ongoing toilet paper crisis, are you considering a bidet?

    That is the gameroom side of the building. 20x22 gameroom, including the restroom.  It has 15’ cathedral ceiling.  The garage is on the left, 26 wide x 30 deep. 12’ ceiling.

    If my budget was bigger and I didn’t care about losing trees, the additional 10’ of driveway would have been included. It will get filled in with dirt and gravel.

    Now that's how you burn tire!

    If this forum can't fix it, it isn't broke.

    Interesting rake?

    Live oaks can be messy...for nice cars and trucks of course.
    Bet I could still find some in my dad’s ElCamino.

    Looks great Steve!

    Kudos Steve, now the fun begins
    Btw, I hate sheetrock work, and paid for the labor. Hope you enjoy it more than me.
