Re: Tips on new garage

Where the garage is going to be in Oregon and with your rigs no doubt being pulled in wet a lot the stem walls like we see in JWHotod's posts make a lot of sense. That would keep any wood up several inches off the garage floor and probably help it last far longer. plus making a garden hose garage floor cleanup a non issue. A few more bucks at the start but a lot of added value if an when you go to sell it and a not more convenience for you with keeping it clean without worries about getting the wood walls wet.

Guys if you haven't figured it out Vintovka lives in one place where most of us drive hundreds if not thousands of miles just to see the beauty of the area. He is moving to another spot a few miles up the coast that is right on one of the great salmon fishing rivers on the west coast in a just as beautiful area. Thing is it rains a lot there. It doesn't phase the locals much unless they depend on tourist $$ but you track water and mud in your garage you park your daily in and there isn't much way around it except not parking in the garage.
