    Doc's Garage tear down/ rebuild thread.

    We paid the contractor the 1st check and he will start building July 13th!

    I will be cleaning out my garage and doing some dismantling the weekend prior (I have the 10-12th off)

    If anyone would like to join me I would love the help and it should be fun. I will provide Barbeque and beer.

    Let me know if you are coming and if one day is better than the other!

    New Garage!!!

    Oh you are killing me. I'll swing by but I'm pretty much useless. Need anything except a strong body?

    I need you to supervise. Sit by the cooler and open beers.

    I wish I lived in Vermont where nice people help others out. To bad Burlington is so far away from nasty RI or I would be right there next weekend with a monster sawzall and have some fun! Good luck with the demo!

    Good thinking Mark! I took down a 50' concrete silo with a 12 gauge. A little one story garage should be pretty much cake. Maybe someone could bring some fireworks too? Doc, you did say your wife and son were going to be out of town right?

    Shoot me a reminder and I'll come help. I have a TON of tools too you can use. Big ole sawzall, huge crowbars, sledgehammers etc. You said this next weekend right? So far methinks I'm free.

    Re: Garage tear down party!!

    10th, 11th or 12th.

    First i am gonna try and unscrew some of the OSB and pull out as much of the insulation as I can so I can hopefully reuse it. Then I want to cut the windows out and start from the top and work my way down.

    I can't just collapse it, and it will be easier to haul away if we do this systematically.

    (I know, no fun. )

    See John's Quote. But practically, some is in the basement, 3 bikes and all my race stuff will be at Hobbs and I will have the trailer with my 998 in it. Garage will take 3 weeks before I can store stuff, plus I need to get it wired, insulated and build Shelves and stuff.
