New shop going up

[Tex929rr]

Here is what the interior of the apartment looks like. We had high hopes but it still. came out way nicer than we expected.

Ninja'd.

I was coming in here to ask if the shop warming party was at @vmax this weekend.

Can we at least wait for a roof, I believe the sun in Abilene is the same one we have here.

We’ve got two - a 40 by 60 we built in 2005 that is a workshop and storage and a 30 by 80 we built in 2016. The newer one has a fully furnished apartment and climate controlled workshop for my wife. The county taxes them exactly the same. If we were moving out to the country all over again we’d live in a big steel building. When you are inside the apartment you can’t tell you that aren’t in a traditional stick built home (except for the suspended ceilings). If anyone else is looking to build a workshop there is a huge amount of useful information at

Back in high school a man that owned the land next to some land my father owned, built a huge metal barn, and in the front end that faced the road, he built a house inside the barn. This was in the late 1970's. We all thought that was just crazy back then. Seems much more common now.

He told me he was gonna hand out parasols.

Sounds like a fufu party to me.

Be better if he was handing out cold Shiners!

I built quite a few hangers that had full living quarters and offices inside. One was two story and very. very push.

I have seen a few of those in the past.

Actually, it has been worse here this year.

Once it gets into the 90's, it's hot, after that it's just numbers.

 

[Vaquero]

Update?

 

[TxStetson]

Exactly. When‘s the party?

 

[Coiled]

Why don't you find a video showing what you are suggesting and start a thread about it so I can ignore it and do it the way I want to?

Sold my cabinet/woodshop last year, and most of my big iron tools.
The plan was to build up here in AR at the lake, then the trees hit the house.
So much for that case of endeavors.

Got serious shop envy just looking.
You're going to enjoy that!
Congratulations
