Well, we have a garage, and there has never been a car parked in it. We
use it to accumulate junk. Well, I just threw out a TON of stuff, and I
was really thinking of remodeling half of the garage into a living
space my son and I could put a pool table in or do projects in the
winter without freezing in the cold.

Anyway, my wife doesn't like the idea of cutting the garage in half at
all, citing the resale value issue (is there an issue?).

Anyway, I thought it would be cool if I could come up with a
compromise.......perhaps some sort of folding partition wall that could
be easily opened up or removed if needed........

I looked around via google, and didn't see anyone mentioning ever doing
anything like this (probably because it's a crazy idea?)

Anyway, if anyone knows of any resources for clever (and easy) ways to
partially remodel a portion of a garage, that would be helpful. Thanks.

2x4 PT plate, Tapcons into the slab, 2x4 top plate and studs all
screwed together with deck screws. Insulate, cheap paneling.

It's not folding, but it doesn't do any damage other than some small
holes in the slab. Very quick to take down and it's inexpensive.
