Well here it is after 6-7 years of saving I was able to pay cash and get it built..30wide x50 longx 10 tall.It is fully insulated and has a 4" concrete floor..I wanted lots of windows to get the look of a seperate living space since its close to the house, and also wanted to see it rain and snow and feel like I was "outside" instead of a Dungeon feeling I got when working in the garage, the windows really make this building look nice to me..I added a 2nd garage door (both 8ft tall). Mainly so I can open the rear door and get a "outside feeling" without letting people driving by on the street knowing what I have inside to steal..The door adds alot of ventalation and cools the building real quick.It has full rough plumbing for a toilet,bathtub,sink, I will add at a later time when funds come available.I still have alot of work left to do.I need to wire the electrical and put up sxome type of wallboard to protect the insulation and metal from getting dented by my rambuxious 2 1/2 year old on a power wheels and my other young son.I also need to add some sod to keep the foundation from washing out, and gravel the driveway...Front of the buildingRear of the buildingAnother shot of the back of the buildingInterior view from the front, CHECK OUT THE VIEW I HAVE AT THE BACK DOOR.MY son on the excavator

Reply:Goodoleboy, Congratulations on your building. That's great that you to have the discipline to plan and save, to pay COB.Post frame buildings are all a little different aren't they?Looks like your building has larger wall girts, which are spaced out. Maybe because of all the windows?Good Luck

Reply:Awesome 'playhouse'! Congratulations on a great job.When it comes to that driveway you may want to consider pouring 8-12' aprons from the door to the gravel. They make a great extended work floor for those real dirty jobs or those too big to fit into the shop. With two doors you could save some $$ and only do the end with the grade door but still gain the advantage of having the added work area.Nice shop and it's paid for!MM200 w/Spoolmatic 1Syncrowave 180SDBobcat 225G Plus - LP/NGMUTT Suitcase WirefeederWC-1S/Spoolmatic 1HF-251D-1PakMaster 100XL '68 Red Face Code #6633 projectStar Jet 21-110Save Second Base!
Reply:I think you'll come to enjoy that drive through design!No idea where you're from, but not having rain gutters for the snow and ice to hang onto could also be a blessing.WeldingWeb forum--now more sophomoric banter than anything else!
Reply:Lucky guy. My new shop has been in a pile for months. Had problems with getting permits, but finally have them and I want the shop up. Should be able to pour the slab within a few weeks, but just trying to find the quote that works in a new lower budget. Looks good.

Reply:That is one nice shop, and when the weather is warm those big end doors will allow a nice cross breeze to take away all the welding fumes and heat.

Reply:Nice shop. I see by the contents your son has staked out a claim. I would like to know the size and spacing our you posts. And the ledger on the top. Is that doubled up 2 x 10 or 2 x 12's. I know your family will enjoy your shop. |
