Nice work! What's your trick on the straight taping lines? Did you use a laser or old fashioned measuring?

I am looking at other posts as far as doing Race Deck or the epoxy stuff. I am kind of torn between the two. I was looking at the thread on the 911 tech forum and there are some great looking floors there. Thanks for the compliment.

Actually, they are not that straight. I was getting upset because I could not get them perfect then my wife asked me why don't I just sacrifice some tape. so that's basically what I did. used 1 strip of tape then separated with another, taped a line then removed that tape that was in-between and re-used it to separate another line.

Well done sir! For stage 2 I would coat the floor and add some nice bright lighting. I'm envious, I plan to remodel mine, but for some reason the wife's projects keep getting top priority.

That thing with the saddle bags should be outside and the blue beauty inside.
