Hi all
We just purchased some land, and in a year/year and a half, we are going to be building a house with a separated garage. Said garage is going to have a full second story, to be a train room for me. I couldn't believe my ears when my wife said that. I thought she wanted a guest room kind of thing. Who knew?
Anyway, we are talking to a builder and his architect in June about what we want, just to get the plans started. Apparently, it takes this long if you custom build a home. I thought we just say "Farm House" and then after 6 months, move in. Oh, how wrong I was.
Right now, I have a combo concrete floor with a carpet remnant as the flooring in my garage that I put my bench work on. Is there a better floor to use? Should I put something like linoleum or industrial carpet in the train room?
Any advice? I know what an issue carpet can be, I recently had some fun removing 2 day old plaster of paris.

p.s. - I have been told to put something as soon as possible, to keep it from becoming a train room/play room/storage/whatever else the "site supervisor" decides. I was thinking that I would build some legs as the garage takes shape, that way, when the house is still being finished, I can get a frame work up... lol...
