You are now on the the best part - putting all of the stuff inside and enjoying the process!!
It is a kaleidoscope of chaos right now as things are moved in and spread everywhere. All complicated by the fact that the electricians are super far behind and making new messes every day they work. The Waterford crystal chandelier arm was broken... That will be fun to fix... You want pictures? How about dark fuzzy ones that hide most of what is going on! But yes, this will be the fun part as soon as I can get the contractors out of here. They are supposed to be finishing the electrical this week including the Big *** Fan and be gone! I can't wait! Outside they are progressing with the stone fairly quickly and it looks great! I'll post again after they have some of toe column bases finished.

To complicate matters I worked hard over the weekend in high temperatures in the sun, got mild heatstroke. Then on Monday I was diagnosed with Covid and feel like crap! 102.5 temp and shivering. Go figure! Be back after I hack up a lung...

I’ve had an Apex5 for a couple years. I cannot recommend Simcraft enough. Great product. Great team. Great support.

I saw the start of that one and it looked amazing, two stories and glass floors. Here are some of the last pictures from 2017. Surely it is finished by now. PM will be sent to him again...


From Space!

Glass floors?

Basement

Framing

Close to completion!

Interior of upper floor... Apparently the whole thing could hold 28-30 cars...

Hopefully we will see the finished product...

I have PM'd Anonymous918 a couple of times now and it looks like he has "Ghosted us" on showing us his completed project.

Too bad because it looked super nice.

I was thinking of him when I saw this BAT listing:

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...ra-rs-touring/

noted Porsche collector, scale / design of the “garage”… likely not but wondering if it is.

That is in Warrenville/Naperville, IL (western Chicago-suburbs), called Iron Gate Condos. They are like car condos people purchase.

Need a new espresso machine for my garage. Rocket R9one or La Marzocco GS3? Torn between the two.

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but have you considered the ECM Synchronika?
