Sounds very cool, but I can't see the pictures.

I didn't see pics either. My garage slab is also poured & is currently populated with a few dozen flower pots compliments of my lady.

You don't really hate him. Just his guts. ;)

Looks like a good start on the build.

I'm thinking of doing corrugated steel for the interior walls with tongue and groove pine ceiling. Any thoughts?

Something like this with the pine ceiling...

This is the garage I was wanting. :cool:

Yours looks a little more realistic. It looks pretty sweet.

For sure. But if there is lots of room for an overgrown SUV think how much room I will have for sports cars. I want the room to open all the doors of all the cars all at once and still walk around. :D

I was in a garage that had shiny corrugated steel walls. The lighting requirements were minimal. Consider doing the ceiling in the same material. The light reflects off the ceiling almost making a shadow free work area.

I have done a ceiling with corrugated before and it looks nice. That being said, in your situation, I would go with a corrugated ceiling and pine walls. Reason being, if you wanted to hang pictures, posters, signs, tools etc... corrugated sucks and once you put a hole in it, it is there forever.

DUK 11-18-2014 06:09 PM

Thanks for the feedback guys. Still up in the air as far as what to do for the walls. Putting the steel on the ceiling is a thought.

Here is the framing started...

I've personally seen pole barn white metal sheeting used on the interior walls and ceiling of a shop and it is pretty sweet.

Check over on garagejournal.com for lots of other options and examples

BTW, nice build!

I'm leaning towards metal on the angled sides of the ceiling with wood in the peak. And then metal about 4 ft up the wall and wood from there, with one area metal all the way for grinding.

DUK 11-25-2014 05:34 PM

Here's some more progress, this time with some brick...
