Why not eh:noidea::D? To bad I don't really have much to show. Maybe some day Ill get a pic of the 2 car garage.
 
ill post one up in a few weeks when its all done.

Right now its being wired.

After that it needs to be plumbed and then is pretty darn close to being finished.

Its a 60x80 Morton building.

My reccomendations for anybody bulding a big shop is to use the acoustisteel. Its expensive but makes a huge difference.

oh ya, and concrete is a rip off these days.
 
And build it at least 2X the size that your wife thinks you need...:D

And tall enough that you can put a nice lift in....:)
 
Well its done, but still empty as far as workbenches go. Ill snap a few pics after the 2 post lift is in.

Our ceiling hieght is 16' on the outsides and peaks at 20' in the middle.

Theres three doors a 24x16 in front, a 12x14 in front, and a 10x14 on the side, both front ones have windows.

And some advice for people building a shop.

add lots of lights and lots of outlets.

We have 140 110v outlets and a total of 222 4' light bulbs.

Lets just say its BRIGHT. I dont even need a trouble light under vehicles.

And if you can jusify it, an air conditioner makes a BIG difference.

X2 you can never have enough lights or outlets in a shop
 
I think we might though. I find myself turning half of the lights off because its just too damn bright.

And the outlets are 5' apart with four in each box.
