KnuckleBuckett:
I decided to reorganize our garage.  I purchased four roll around wire rack shelves from Sams at $90 each and a six RubberMade attachment strips.  I hung most of the strips at about 72".  I stored the rarely accessed gardening and yard tools behind the racks t help clean things up.  They will change positions with the seasons like the lawn mower and snow blower do.  I cut a couple of the 84" hanging strips to fit the wall and or stack here and there.  They make a number of useful hooks, shelves, and baskets to hang from them.  Neat product.

The racks gave me much needed space to better organize our brewing equipment and misc. garage stuffs.  It also gave me the much needed task of getting rid of a plenty of built up crap.  The brewing equipment is fairly bulky in that we brew dual 5 to 7 gallon batches simultaneously.  This makes up for the fact we can only find the time to brew every 2 months or so.

14 years ago I painted the garage floor and it is really starting to show the age and wear.  I considered refinishing it, installing garage flooring, etc. however not worrying about the floor so much when we brew is just too nice.  If it were all new and nice again we would have to worry about ruining it with heat, scratches, and drops. 

Years ago I installed ceiling fans.  Amazing idea.  The things should come standard with all garages.  They make it nice all summer, dry it out in winter, add tons of light, and keep most of the bugs out.

I am considering adding a drop down stair case to the attic, another work table/bench/box, and additional lighting in the far front and rear.  Not sure yet.

Anyone else tackle this kind of thing?

I tried posting a video and photos but received an error "The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator.".  Sorry Benny.

ober:
Yeah, I got an email that the folder was full.  I just took the limit off so you should be good.  I was reading your post going 'this post is worthless without pics' but I get it now.  Try again!

I haven't done much beyond hanging some shelving in our garage.  One of these days the original fluorescent lights are going to give out and I will replace them with LEDs or maybe a fan.  Then again, I don't spend much time in the garage so we probably would just get some lights.  I'd be thrilled if the lights just fucking died and it gave me a reason to do the project.  I already have the new lights picked out.  We also thought about doing something with the floor but again, we don't spend much time in the garage and it's only going to wear off over time.

KnuckleBuckett:
This light is really nice and very affordable.

Jake:
Hey Knuck, are you sure you got enough propane?

ober:
I was just going to use the same lights we have in our basement: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Commercial-Electric-24-Watt-Brushed-Nickel-Integrated-LED-Ceiling-Flushmount-2-Pack-JJU3011L-BN/302430663  Easy to install, throws plenty of light.

Thanks for the pics :)  I'm surprised you have the fans hanging so low.  Any reason for that?
