Happy to report some progress:
- After 45 days, we were able to put the car in the garage!
- All major appliances are in and operational!
- Garage is semi-organized!
- First pegboard sheet has been installed.
One 3' x 8' pegboard sheet will go below this one and another will be installed to the right of it. An access hole will be cut for the electrical panel.
Slow, but steady. I am using 2.5" drywall screws through the drywall into the 2"x4" stud beneath. The pegboard is attached with 1 3/8" drywall screws and fender washers into the furring strips. Yeah, it's overbuilt, but that's my approach after the hard-won lessons of PRR Panhandle 1.0.
So far, so good.
