Fellow Bolters,
I received lots of good advice in the earlier thread. Garage - What should I build? .

Now you can follow along with the progress as the shop becomes a reality. LINK HERE - BUILDING A SHOP

Zoning in my residential area limits me to 600SF. So the shop will be 24' wide and 25' long and 12' at the eaves. The roof will have a 12/3 pitch. Smooth concrete floor and broom finish skirt.

I decided to have a tubular steel building erected. Lot's of companies sell the same building and to my surprise the quotes from each one were the same EXACT dollar amount. A crew will arrive and erect the building once the concrete has cured for 28 days.

I still need advice on lighting choices. I hope LED is affordable.

Insulation will probably be R-tech foam board (R = 7.7) for the walls and spray foam for the ceiling.
Keep the ideas coming!
This is exciting.
