It had to be done. I hated the half ass layout of everything and decided to insulate, plywood, organize, hang a heater, and put new lights up and a few other doo-dads.
I modified drop celing lights so that I could flush mount them between the truss'. Got 11 of them off of craigs list for $5 each will all the bulbs but about 1/4 of them are burned out. The cord reels are from ebay I got for $25 for both. The cabinets are solid maple that were stained horribly. I sanded them down and got all the uppers shown for $100. I am very happy with the final look for the money spent.
I will paint it white inside in a couple years just to have that "fresh" feeling again and I am sure the garage will need to be cleaned at that time too. There is now storage up in the attic of the garage that I wasn't utilizing before really.
dtour helped a lot and I have to thank him for the motivation and help. There were many nights that we were up past midnight during the work week to get this done.
I picked working on the garage and spending the $ there instead of the house because the garage makes me money. Powder coating, auto repairs, woodworking, etc - the house stuff will be done soon
