99_XC600 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 Nice work space that you've created!
KnarlyCarl Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 Organized, a clean floor, seems a shame to do any work in it ha
Fazzman Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 Thats a awesome man cave you got there bro,nice work.
comp56 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 good job nice to have a clean slate to do what you want
WigWagWorkshop Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 Coming along nicely for sure! I am so jealous to be honest, I been wanting to frame in the hot water heater and furnace, but I think it might be to big a job for me to handle on my own. 1

Its not to bad, we framed in our water heater in the garage,of course that made it a bit easy,it would all depend where your stuff is located. i just roto hammered into the concrete floor and mounted 2x4's with redheads then went from there, only went 8' high the top is pretty much open,and have a opening from outside of house to access it. The water heater being pretty much in the corner of the garage made this really easy. Sounds like a good excuse to get some friends over to help ya out.
Fazzman Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 Here's ours its back in the corner:Tried to make good use of the wall space 1

That's a pet peeve when people close in their equipment too much! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

Stercorarius Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 Oh I posted something changed my mind and edited it to never mind (nvm) just because you can't delete a reply from Tapatalk

That's a pet peeve when people close in their equipment too much!Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalkisn't there a code for that? I know when I did my service side of our basement I put a wall about 18" away from the furnace but I also put a sliding shelf on that same wall so when anything needs done on furnace the shelf slides out of the way and furnace is completely open.

Millerzconstruction Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 Looks good buddy. Osb is a good alternative. I've used it on several jobs. Like you did on the walls. Millerz
JimboS1ice Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 OSB is much cheaper than plywood. Personally I hate having to use OSB but from a cost perspective thats the best option. A little background on OSB from the fire department side, in a building construction course I took, OSB fails under heat conditions about 60% faster than traditional plywood. Let me tell you take a fire department building construction class and you'll be concerned about your own homes construction. The hot topic these days is truss construction, the gusset plates on the trusses can fail in as little as 5 minutes, causing a partial or total roof collapse in as little as 10 minutes from contact with the fire. Scary stuff, anyways getting off my soapbox, awesome job on the framing! 2
comp56 Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 cheap and easy for vertical walls but not so great for horizontal shelving......any span and you got sag 1
