Progress on our garage

I have been away from autopia for a long time due to school and work, but between working and school me and dad have been up to no good. We have been building this garage, all by ourselves in the evenings and days we have off. It started about may, and last time we worked on it was last sunday, but heres some filler pics because I havent been around.
It all kinda started out like this

Soon after I left for a couple of months of schooling in Japan, so no real progress was made, besides the concrete was curing.
Soon after I came back home we began framing for the walls

and ultimately led to us putting up OSB and then the truss. The truss we had premade, and actually had a few guys help us hoist it up onto the top

Soon we began putting OSB everywhere, and fnially put the roofing on

All wrapped up

And the most recent pics


Total dimensions are 52x32, with 13ft ceilings. The two outside garage doors will be regular roll up doors, whereas the middle door will be a barn style door to accomodate for the lift. The windows were only placed up front because really, we didnt need em on the sides due to a lack of light. Thats pretty much the building so far, I'll try to keep this updated as things go by. I thought I'd go ahead and drop by to update everyone on whats going on. Thanks

That garage would be worth about $700,000 in L.A.!!

Sweet, another garage thread, join the club! Your garage looks very, very nice. I like the look of the cedar siding and the windows. So that is technically a 6 car garage? Great work!

*technically* its a 9 car garage..but realistically we wont have that many in there, as we will be using much of the space to put our tools etc.


and thanks for the compliments guys
