And when I need a break.............the POOL just outside the door.......any ideas?

Shop is finished now on the construction. Next is the electrial, insulation, and wall board. But at least its inside and dry.....

1200 sq ft of space.

That nice ,wish i had the room for something like that .Now you need to get a couple of more trucks.

:flag: :bowtie:

Looks good. Wish I had something like that. IF you don't mind me asking but about how much did it set you back?

Looks great man! I'm curious about the framing method though, never seen walls framed like that before, with the lumber laid in a flat manner. What is the reasoning or principle behind doing it that way?

Noticed one other thing, looks like the new shop will keep the new neighbor from looking into your pool, lol!

barn -- His shop is like a minature version of our storage shop, the reason why it is framed that is that the metal panelling on the side is screwed into those boards. In our shop we took spare studs and nailed them on diagonally to provide extra stength.

One thing I would definitly want if I did it again would be a laser level to get all of those bolts in line along the side...

Looks nice, and just that much less grass to mow, lol.

Actually its more of a pole barn style structure.

The lumber was wet this time of year, which didn't help alot.

I'm getting free wood scraps from the construction sites in the area and putting uprights in the walls....giving me more to nail and construct from the inside. Its all free for the asking.

Your right about the pool being hidden.....they are putting about 7 homes up just in along the right side of the building, only 10 feet away from the side of it.

Cost with the 3500 rated concrete was approx $15500..........

Just bought the house, told the wife we couldn't move in until the shop was up. She's retiring next summer and the house will be paid for by then.

Also had to promise her a Greenhouse and restore her 67 Mustang (1 owner with 48K miles) Won't need much.

looking sweet blue beard, have you got plans has to how your going to lay it out in side, work bench, truck lift, beer fridge, girly posters(don't tell me your too old for that) lighting etc.?

Have proposed thoughts on the layout......

Already have two wood stoves donated, friend to help with electrical, Fridge with ice maker, stereo, work benches, cycle lift..........possibly a car lift ( that's why the stronger concrete floor).........

Oh yeah, plenty of room for posters.....never to old for that....will attach one that will be going up

open for other suggestions.........

Posters for shop
 

Casey, you were asking about the girly posters.

How about these puppys.......?

i want one!!!!!

ok as long as were straight on that, this gives new meaning to a man and his castle, who thought it would end up beening a garage, I'll be over to visit, got to say I'm jealous can't wait to build a shop,

Russell, stack the sheets for each side and pre drill them. All the screws will line up that way.

Looking good there. Fridge, tv and an easy chair. You're ready.

Very nice looking shop going up there. Wife and I were just talking about one for me...but I'm waiting till I finish school at the end of this year before we start..

Very Cool Blue Beard...Looks Very Awesum...all you guys building those Shops are makin me very jealous!

My current garage has a home made TV stand that mounts to the wall..........will rotate about 270 degrees................

It will be transferred to the new shop.........be able to see it from anywhere in the shop..........good stereo system going in as well...........

Lets see the wife upset and send me to my room........................PLAYTIME!

Now that the weather has cleared up, that is except for the rain.............

More pics to come...........
