If money were no object, how would you build your perfect pain cave?

Well, I have just had my garden studio built, so next up I need to fit lights, electrics, add alarm, cameras, then add the bikes, treadmill, Pilates reformer bed, if space weights. Loads to do, cannot wait

3 years ago my wife and I went from scattered workout gear all over our house to turning a never used home office into a pain cave. It has made such a huge difference in training, so much easier to stay focused when you have a dedicated space, when you close the door it’s go time.

Nice job! Excellent. It is one of the few garage conversions I have seen where condensation on the concrete tile walls was taken into consideration by using wood cladding with horizontal stripping placed against the concrete tile wall instead of the cladding itself. Based on the good quality of the build, it is safe to assume the black roofing-like felt/membrane placed on the painted concrete tile surface is a breathable felt/membrane. If not, you may have accidentally created a future molding issue between the black felt/membrane and the concrete tile especially in poorly insulated rooms (i.e., un-insulated garage door and ceiling). Most garage failures in humid/cold environments are caused by a poor flow of air to the wall surfaces. I look forward to more. Overall, it is one of the most professional looking builds I have seen. Can’t wait to see the rest. BTW... if the cladding was more green that you expected... it could be because the wood was treated to prevent molding.

I have my indoor trainer in a similar kind of building. Just concrete walls and ceiling, some vinyl on the floor. We have our washer and dryer in that place. There is a window and a heater. When I do a long ride, there are droplets forming on the ceiling and walls. Could it damage our machines? What could I do to prevent mold?
@joemoya97437 ай бұрын
@@Pedreone Buy a dehumidifier. Humidity and electronics are never friends. Other than insulating the exterior and/or interior walls sufficiently to prevent condensation, there is no easy solution to stopping condensation. But, using a dehumidifier will help but will also need plumbing for drainage or constant emptying of the water it collects.

This is super fun keep up the good work! Just an FYI, when you reinforced the ceiling to make the opening, you really should have put a single piece of wood spanning the gap and connected the cut rafter to it. This provides stability to the cut rafter via the adjacent rafters. You could easily just attach one after the fact just to sure it up a bit.

Your hole in the ceiling wasn’t framed correctly. You run a double 2x8 (if your joists are 2x8, looks like it) between the joists you are not cutting. Put one in and nail the cut joist into it, then add the second one. Then put a joist hanger with joist hanger nails on the cut joist, repeat on the other side. All that said if you don’t overload your ceiling you’ll be fine no matter what, it’s a garage attic space. Your ceiling boards, if they are gypsum board also need a lot more screws or they are going to sag.

Oh guys dont do the layout across the garage.. it will likely be on a slight angle to prevent against flooding and will be a real ballache on the bike / treadmill.. not to mention tedious levelling .. you'd be better off facing the back wall or the entrance of the garage!
