  • I finally found the perfect place to build the ultimate car guy compound. Tons of car parts, tools, and a motorcycle were left behind. So today we're going to sort through everything, throw a ton of stuff away, and start cleaning things up. A new house, a new shop, and a place to build cars better than ever before... but the house has some strange secrets of it's own.

    Common Questions:
    What motorcycle do I ride? A few. Ducati 1198, Honda Goldwing, Honda Grom, Honda Ruckus
    What do I do for a living? Make RUclips videos.
    Can you wheelie? No, I suck.
    Are you fast? Sort of. I suck mostly though.
    Where can I keep up with you off the bike?

    Do you go to school? College, for 2 classes.
    Why do you ride so dangerously? What do mean? I was doing 25.
    Do you go to the track? Of course, hopefully there will be videos in the future.
    Do you play video games? No, but I might stream N64 Goldeneye at some point. Twitch: WatchJRGo
    Are you afraid the police will watch your videos and arrest you? Something something evidence something something warrants and due process of law

    I saw the thumbnail and thought to myself that I would not want the clear glass on the doors as anyone could look into the garage. Glad to see you felt the same way and took care of it and did it very nicely.

    If you are on an even tighter budget, Lowe's & Home Depot both have frosted vinyl (and other colors/patters), along with the install kits needed. Did a garage door on a previous house for less than $50 for all 4 windows (across the top).... probably about $70 now.

    The doors made quite a change, but personally I'm not a fan of black doors. I do agree it's nice to have
    some windows but my OCD only allows me to put the windows on the top panel of the door, so there's
    less chance of someone busting out the window and crawling through...
    The new opener seems to work great.

      One way mirror only works when the lights on the side you don't want to see into are brighter then the light on the opposite side. At least that's how it was in the early 90s.

    I realize I'm late to the party but if you remove the inside trim of the windows (it should just be a few screws) you can more easily frost the glass. Depending on how the door is built you might want to have someone on the outside to hold the glass but usually they are glued in for weather sealing anyway and the inside trim just makes it easier to replace the glass if one gets broken.

      Chamberlain killed off the smart home integration, which is problematic for people who bought the device to use with smart home integration, and now Chamberlain reaches into your home and kills off functionality. Apparently you can still use a smartphone app to operate it, which might be why the marketing team thought they could kill it off. If the device works for you, then great, keep using it. It came already installed in my home..
