That was the inspiration! It did cause me to look at similar ideas, but wanted something fixed to the bulkhead ideally
Polished it - first Time Machine polishing anything. Took a lifetime (3 days on and off). Far from perfect but a million times better than it was.
Used Menzerna Cut Force Pro and super finish plus, followed by some McGuires ceramic spray wax for anyone interested.

Cheers! The garage is still a bit of a novelty to me too - only moved in late October. Gone from no garage to this.Looks good Richard
Oh for a garage that i could actually fit the van in and work on it indoors !
I had been scouring the internet / marketplaces for months leading up to the move finding deals on flooring, shelving & bike racks etc. saved a small fortune!
What flooring is it?
Swisstrax. Interlocking vented tiles - 400 x 400mm.
It was a bit of a state when I bought it - spent an age cleaning each tile. Still got a load spare which needs cleaning & selling.
Last night, aafter 90 minutes of painfully cold adjusting, and adjusting and adjusting, I've managed to get my facebook marketplace bike frame to fit without moving.
Need some winter tyres on the van, a heater and then im sorted for a few winter trips round Yorkshire and Northumberland.

Fitted a new bottom runner for the sliding door and moved the door a too much and, annoyingly, it dropped onto the drive... fortunately missing my foot!
Nice bend on the bottom corner which will have to wait for warmer weather for a repair.
It's my work van and it needs a bit of cosmetic work after 190k! so I've just sealed it with bit of black spray for the moment.

It looks great! I need to sort something over the uneven concrete in mine which produces so much dust.
I didn’t know that was possible, how did it detach from the centre runner?
Yeah I’d definitely recommend it. I’d probably get some concrete sealer down before hand too.
Finally got around to making a simple screen mount for the van, two 3d prints later and have a bracket for pop top board and a vesa mount for screen. Used a bit of 2020 extrusion for the beam.
But left to polish off as need some new M4 bolts and make some end caps etc.

The rear centre runner remained attached and the top runner has a short retaining slot so if you move the door fwd it just drops out!
Hi Andrew, Give me a rundown on how you fixed these to the roof and a pic of how you finished off that front end near the cab.
Many Thanks
