Well I spent many hours this weekend digging & hauling stone, but now the garage is ready for cement Friday and I can keep the car inside for the week.
Digging through stone that has been compacted for TWO YEARS with a shovel is NOT fun. :shakehd::shakehd::shakehd:
I loaded FIFTEEN wheelbarrow loads out of there to get the levels & slope for the drains correct.
They’re only pouring the one side Friday and the other where I park next Monday.

Floor drains are installed




Floor drains all covered up and the floor is “tamped” down




I built two “ghetto” ramps to get the car over the hole for the footer




All washed up and shiny again


HAPPY...HAPPY...JOY...JOY...

 

Damn... Looks like a lot of work a quite a mess. Worth it in the long run though.

 

That Zaino is really amazing. Did you just wash and dry or did you also re-Z2? You said that you had tree debris on your car.

Your garage will be nice when it is done. I envy it already.

 

You are NUTZ

 

So the inside of your garage has always been stone/gravel?

 

No, that’s just a wash & blow dry. No time for a Z-2 job.
Maybe I’ll give it a wipe-down with Z-6 some night this week, but I just didn’t have the energy in me today.

I could tell when I was drying it with the blower that the water wasn’t dancing off as fast as normal so it needs some more attention.

No energy to Zaino.........I think SHAWN S IS SICK!!!!!!!!

 

Another for Zaino. To keep that bling after the recent thunderstorms without another polish job is AWESOME!

 

Yes, since I had the garage built in January of 2000.
It is built into a sloped area of the lot and they told me to wait to allow the stones to properly settle because there is over 4FT of fill on the one side.

that's 1 word i'd use to describe Shawn

 

. . . .Shawn, and you are not putting in a pit to work on
the cars?

 

Yea, that would be an interesting idea, but I’m pretty sure I read they’re illegal in my area.
To protect kids from falling in “the pit” I guess.
