    Wendell, good evening. I'm guessing that if you have 325K cash, you're doing this simply because you want to. Good on ya! I'm in the process of retaking my garage as a workspace and found the following article on lighting that you may find useful (see Light fixture positioning made simple):

    Also, you might want to check out Larry Kosilla's video on his garage redo from last fall. Really interesting to watch. Love the Quick Jacks. Just be sure to get a solid warranty on your epoxy floor!

    Subscribing now. Can't wait to see the outcome. Good luck!

    I'd start with pulling those plant beds to get drive-up access to building. Could the front glass be replaced with a garage door.
    Rip the floor, with center drain end to end.

    Looks a little to small for a shop, just the picture maybe. Good luck on your future ventures and will keep in touch with the thread

    Very cool! Good luck with the new place.

    Youtube WhiteDetails Hes got a pretty cool setup there with a small lift & a very basic clean setup which might give you some cool ideas.
    There is also Larry from AMMO who made his garage into a detailing area, so again some cool ideas may come from there.

    325.00 cash I would rent it out.Then buy another against the one you have and rent that out.you will get a nice profit check every month forever.
