I'm all about spending the money when needed, but no sense spending more just for the sake of spending more...

I'm leaning more towards the Gladiator stuff. Their cabinets seem more solid, have magent latches and are mounted on a rail system for more flexibility. I really like Craftsman, have 3 Craftsman tool boxes full of Craftsman tools but if the budget permits, I think it's going to be Gladiator.

I'm also saying the Gladiator isn't too much more expensive.

I'm thinking you've got a good plan.

I'm looking forward to having a garage someday...

I'm currently brainstorming a rather large renovation/construction project in the back of the house to include increasing the size of the back porch/deck, adding a covered trellis of sorts and constructing a garage...

I'm brainstorming several home improvement plans myself, nothing major. The house doesn't need anything, it's mostly aesthetics. Plans include...

Automatic sprinklers
Replacing the linoleum sp? in the master bathroom with tile.
New paint in the master bedroom/bathroom, living room and family room.
Finsihing the garage floor with either tile or a floor coating and finishing the drywall.
Tool shed in the backyard.
Koi pond/Japanese garden in the backyard.
Low voltage exterior lighting.
Hardwood floors in the formal areas.
New countertops and kitchen sink.

I'm saying it will probably be a couple years for some of these projects to materialize. Money is going to be tight for awhile. I'm also posting a link in case Brant hasn't seen the house yet...

I'm telling you that I haven't even bothered to list painting or trimwork. Those projects are so small relative to the other things I have going on that they barely warrant mention...

I can relate to money being tight. Not sure when I'll get around to all the major outdoor projects...

I'm debating between the Craftsman garage set or the Glaidiator set for my Garage Mahal.
