Rather than clog other threads with my photos of my progress, I'd rather just make a thread for it, and talk about my experiences with tips and tricks for others who are interested.

I'll be splitting this into multiple phases with posts for each, and updating accordingly.

Phase 1: Floor Sealant
Phase 2: Wall Paint
Phase 3: Shelving/Workbench
Phase 4: Lighting
Phase 5: The Little Things (details, random stuff)
Phase 6: ???

Congrats!!! I am in the same boat ... however it will take a while before I get to the garage since theres a lot to fix around the house nice garage I have a 1 car better than no garage ...

I may have missed it or you may already have it but air compressor with hose retractor in the ceiling! Every garage needs an air compressor. Garage looks awesome so far, making me super jealous over here!
