Shit, that's the wife's Pilates Ball... If I sold that, I'd be lucky to have both of MY balls at the end of the day!

Let me know what kind of job he does for you. We are thinking of breaking down and having the shop floor professionally redone this time with the logo embedded in it.

Tell him if he does a good job at a reasonable price, he may be getting more business from us.

I think doing that to your shop floor would be bad assed, Matt!

I'm still waiting on BM$ to give me his number, so I can get him over here to checkout the pad, and give me an idea of time/price/etc... I'll give you his number when I get it bud!

As for me, did a little more work in the garage this evening!! I got two more sections of this Garageworks Gladiator Gear Wall Systems!! Had to cut one end to fit the "finished" section of the garage, so I've got like a 20" piece leftover to throw on the wall somewhere when I figure out a good place for it

The tools required to do the job:


The brand's logo(s):



The finished product on the East wall of the Garage:





The spot in which I'm debating on which storage/workbench to install:


And the Bike Rack installed:


And some shameless old skewl plug/rep for mwah:


These are the two systems I'm debating on getting (Coleman & Garage Works)...

Coleman:






Garage Works:






Each are equally priced (Coleman is a few bucks cheaper), and are about the same as far as storage and quality from what I can tell in the store touching them and molesting them... What I really like about the Coleman (the ones in the middle I think above) is the way the handles are designed. Then what I really like about the Gladiator stuff is that it's made with Diamond Plate (look-a-like I guess?) and has the Hammered silver/black look on the metal parts... Kinda torn...

Anyways, that's it for now...

I've got the Coleman and am vary happy with them. They were easy to put together although it takes a little time.
Whats nice is the feet are adjustable. My floor has a pitch and I was able to adjust the feet on the three sections that have my work table on top to level it all out. The ones that mount on the wall are super easy to set up also.
On a side note, I took an extra step and sealed the bottom of the drawers so fluid wouldn't damage the particle board (or what ever it is). I also used wood glue on all the screws, these things are solid!
Good luck and post some pics of that floor when the dude is done.
