So for the last couple months I haven’t posted anything here because my wife and I have been revamping the entire garage. This involved tearing out two whole walls worth of bulky and inefficient wood shelving that turned our already meager 2-car garage footprint into more of a 1.5-car space.
After a weekend of demolition (including demolishing more drywall than I would’ve liked) and removing approximately 300 nails from our now swiss-cheesed studs, we used 2 tubs of spackle to patch up what we could.
After painting all of the walls, ceiling, doors and window trim we could move onto finally organizing all of the mess that had since been piled in a heap in the middle of the garage.
Finally we could begin the process of reorganizing and consolidating as much as we could to maximize our available space. Part of this process involved setting up some more purposeful shelves and wall mounting.
Finally today I’ve been able to finish the portable wood storage cart and load it up – condensing a massive amount of scrap wood and cut-offs into one 4’x5′ space.
There’s a decent amount of work still to be done on the garage before it reaches our ultimate ideal but that’ll have to wait for Part 2 . . .
