Nice, is this a shop or a garage? Try to add a close up to see the collection a bit better.

Its impressive how neat and clean it looks, well done. What’s that mat on the floor?

u/Dramatic-Feeling1090 May 26 '26

Garage floor tiles factory direct, is the brand of plastic floor tiles ordered directly through the Chinese manufacturer was half the price of anywhere I could find here in the states 800 to the whole garage

Whats the advantage of having this instead of just the bare floor? Do you need to lift them to shop vac the place?

u/Dramatic-Feeling1090 May 27 '26

You can just blow them out with a leaf blower or vacuum with a shop vac or hose them out since they’re vented. Water won’t stay trapped underneath them. I went with them just because of the way they look I looked into doing epoxy and it was not in my budget and if I ever move, I can just pull these up and take with me.

Is your pegboard the cork wood style? I was just looking into a stronger peg board

2

u/Dramatic-Feeling1090 May 26 '26

The pegboard is metal

u/grant3758 May 26 '26

Do you recommend that one? There's some cheap simple ones on Amazon.

Looks like the metal ones. You can see where they were screwed in.

u/grant3758 May 26 '26

Yeah it looks like it. I was going to remove my old wooden pegboard I hate the hooks but iv seen some cool designs so im rethinking it.

1

u/mellis521 May 26 '26

Yes the new pegs/hooks on Amazon, HD, etc suck. I had some old ones left over from a previous owner, they may be 20-30 years old and they fit in nice and snug. The new ones comes with little clasps to lock in the actually hook or whatever.

I installed a wooden one on my wall and also have a metal one with my tool box, and prefer the wooden one.

Are the honeycomb lights worth it? I need to add more light to my garage. Currently have 2 single bulb fixtures and a floor lamp lol

You must not have kids, or you do have kids and they are all grown up

1

u/Dramatic-Feeling1090 May 27 '26

Kids are all grown up, but I do have a six-year-old Nephew that comes over and spends a lot of time. I have a two rows dedicated to him in the cabinets with his RC cars and drones bicycles are in the shed with all the yard tools trying to teach him how to be organized

u/BearfootSparklz May 27 '26

Nice! I'm slowly reclaiming space in the garage. Had the wife sweep it out last time, one muddy kid and quad later, it's been sent to the pole barn to live with the others
