Mine has definitely made life much more enjoyable. Its so dang hot that it’s not enjoyable to be anywhere in the summer not in AC. It’s going to be nice to not feel like passing out after doing car stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aenigma Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 Gas line puncturing during construction went on last night while we were at the movies with our phones on silent. Our awesome superintendent called the fire dept immediately. They brought cops and paramedics. By the time I looked at my phone an hour and a half later to see the message from the police, everyone had taken care of their stuff and the city was moving the gas line. It was scheduled to be moved today, but they figured might as well last night since they were already on scene. Saved a day to our construction. I won’t lie. Speeding home at the mercy of Lonnie’s drag style driving and a punctured house gas line and voice mail from the police and not knowing what we were going to get home to was a little scary. The super took a picture and sent it to me just to let me know everything was ok. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aenigma Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 Getting there. After a few storm snafus, project is still going and should be done in a couple weeks. It’s huge inside. We’re still deciding on epoxy and cabinets and paint. Unfortunately it is too close to drag week to wait until it’s finished to work on the camaro, so we’ve cancelled our drag week for this year. We’ll get ’em next year. I’m bummed about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aenigma Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 You really can’t tell from the outside which is the look we were going for. It just looks like a 2 car garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOXXOH Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Although it's sad to miss drag week, what you have now is far better to make next year's drag week more enjoyable. Looking good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to start planning the decor and ordering the Vette automobilia. We have the paint ready to do ourselves and Lonnie is picking out the epoxy. Once it’s done and the cars and tools are back from the various locations throughout the valley, we are going to try to put a barbecue together for ACE. I just have to figure out the parking logistics too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aenigma Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 After spending all yesterday painting the interior ourselves in 106 degree heat, we decided we don’t like the color. I’m waiting to hear back from the contractor on a cost to repaint. It is mind numbing to think that people work in the heat of summer. Definitely worthy of a whole lot of respect. Our foreman let us know the job should be done by this weekend. Lonnie picked out an epoxy that’ll be done next Friday. It’s exciting to see it come together.

Well it looks like you're going "white" and there's only a few hundred shades of "white" to choose from, white is the most frustrating "color"; they all look the same until you put them on the wall and then damn they look different. Get a sample of your floor epoxy if you can, trying to select wall color without basing off it that is spinning your wheels. The light levels in the room are going to drastically change once the floor protection comes off and the epoxy goes down. This will affect the appearance of the wall color immensely I know you don't want to final paint over that epoxy, but I'd really put off a repaint of the walls until you can compare it to the epoxy applied to the floor. You might find once the epoxy goes on that the current color might work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
