How slippery is the epoxy floor when moisture is present?

Mine is not slippery with flakes. One area without flakes is slick!

Over used the flakes and have a small section without by one bay door.

I lost my 32x48 in divorce...yay. *blank stare*

My next one will be bigger and with much more thought behind it. Loose plans I submitted to the contractor I'm working with added up to $70K. That's when I was "the fuck you say?". There was quite a bit of concrete involved in my plans, and some significant changes in doors from what I had before.

It'll still get done, just have to refi the property after dumping a good portion of the leftover *funds from selling my house on Colfax*

et. Century stink lost my connection during post.

Mine was right about 45k, I paid materials, no markup and labor. Some stuff I did myself to save $, like the siding.

Mine was right at $30...maybe just under. Just put less down on the house. Worth every penny.

I'm in the planning stage of building a shop. It will be happening in the next few months. I am thinking a pole barn and then pouring a concrete floor in it. I'm looking at somewhere between 1500 to 2500 square feet. It will have 12' walls for adding a loft later on when needed. Two 10' wide garage doors on opposite sides to have a drive through with a dump or flat bed trailer. I've been looking at pole barn kits, but I'm thinking I can piece build it for much cheaper, and just order the trusses.I will be doing most of the work, so it should be pretty inexpensive, around $10-14K.

Used to have a decent sized garage in CA and place I could work in at the machine shop I worked at (the boss liked motorcycles and guns). When I had my house in Ft. collins I had a dedicated motorcycle work area and a section for my guns hobby. Now I an in a rental and the garage is full of stuff, not much room to work. If I can ever talk the wife into getting rid of the stuff we haven't used in five years, I could clear some space. At work I can come in when closed and work on the truck and my guns, it has everything I need so I am not disadvantaged too much, just driving time to and from.
