Thanks for the kind words guys!
Ppd1975,
The lift is a Rotary SP74 lift. It's one of the first lifts Rotary made, according to what I found online. Like I said before I never planned to have a lift in this garage, I was going to wait to the next one lol. But I got it on craigslist for $500 so I couldn't pass it up. Luckily the cylinders were already rebuilt so it has 0 leaks thus far, and one of the safety latches is at the perfect height for my ceiling. Also since the balance cables are routed through the base I only had to make 2 4" holes in the ceiling for the cylinders.

I used the rust-oleum garage floor epoxy you can get at home depot/menards/etc. There is a 2.5 car garage kit for 100$ and I had to use 2 kits total for my garage. Overall it was very simple to use, and came with everything you needed to prep and paint the floor minus a roller and pan. The only downside is its much thinner than the industrial epoxy flooring I am used to at work, but that was nearly 10x the cost, so for my amateur garage purposes its more than good.

Note, I chose to leave the vinyl chips out, so when I drop a bolt I can find it. They do this at the engine development facility I work at, and it gives a very clean/surgery room feeling
