The bracket is just about the distance from the wall as the length of one garage curtain, so it made sense. I could have stretched one single wire across the length of the garage but I thought two separate shorter cables would be a bit safer and easier to deal with. These garage door brackets are securely attached to the studs in the ceiling, so this seemed like a great place to attach the wire to. Luckily I had a metal cutoff wheel for the angle grinder. Steel cable is extremely difficult to cut. I put these in the vice and cranked on them with a ratchet to ensure they would be able to handle a lot of tension and weight spanned from wall to wall. I used three U clamps in alternating directions to secure the wire. The rounded piece at the end is called a thimble, it prevents the cable from being kinked too hard at one end, which would allow a weak point in the tensioned wire. The first thing to do was “loop” one end of the wire. I purchased two large canvas drop clothes which would cover with length of the garage, some 1/8″ steel cable, a grommet kit, thimbles, cable clamps, and tension turnbuckles.

I came up with this idea in my head and went to the store with a rough plan. My solution to these problems is a sliding garage curtain “wall” that can separate my shop off from the other two stalls. I use a very small propane heater to keep the area warm while I work, but I can generally only keep it around 45 degrees when it’s below 0 outside. The secondary problem to working in the garage is most evident in a Minnesota winter heat. My lawn equipment also doesn’t exactly enjoy having a think layer of sawdust on the motor, hence the cover on the riding mower above. The problem with working in my garage is that there are other things in there besides lumber and tools to get covered in dust.
