almost done
 

Patiently waiting, we have had single digit temps all week otherwise the lap siding would be done. :bur2:
doors next week!!

Awesome! Not the -15 part. :lol:

It got to 45 today, thought about pulling my flip flops out.

love the color.

They're calling for it to dip into the mid 40's next week and I'm dreading it lol!

The shop looks good! How big is it?

Mid 40s is a heat wave for us right now,I hate this especially since we still have to paint the siding. Shop is 42x42 with 12' ceilings. Stay warm!:fire:

Mid 40's is like a bubonic plague for me lol! Wow that's gonna make for a very nice work space!

I am putting my 30' car hauler in there so that will eat up some space. We had a wierd hail storm go throughhere Sept.29. Insurance company totaled my trailer. Bad timing. :bang:

You need to make it 2' bigger all the way around just for insulation! Beautiful shop.

Curtis I love the new avitar

That's headed our way but it will moderate. I hope!

Kevin,Lookin good buddy.

Thanks Scott, can't wait to get working on my car when its done. See you in January when I pick up my new subframe, I am stoked!!:thankyou:

Chilly here this morning wasn't it?

I agree the Shop looks great!

Thanks, overhead doors went on today, now if I could light a fire under the builders backside maybe he could put in an 8 hourday and finish the siding.

:thankyou:

Exterior is complete, now I will hopefully finish the wiring this next week and get my final so I can start insulating.

That turned out great!! :thumbsup:

Very Nice.

Insulated
 

Well I finally got the walls insulated over the holidays. Used a hammer stapler worked great. Had visions of stapling my forefingers with that thing but all I got was a couple blood bllisters. What a pain in the ass.:buttkick:

That should help with keeping the cold out! I can't wait until I get to build my new shop!

Used those A LOT when I was a pyro.... we'd cover the mortar boxes with plastic. I put a couple of those staples in my wrist... by that time in the build my hands and arms hurt so much I hardly noticed. LOL

I got some tennis elbow from that thing,its heavier than my hammer!

Well progress is slow but it is still progress. All I have left to do is tape drywall (ugh) paint, finish hanging fixtures, hang heater, and blow insulation in ceiling. Then I can work on the car!

I like the ceiling you put in. The gloss will make the lights more effective.
Are you coating the floor with anything?

I like the ceiling too, it is a lot lighter than rock, no taping, sanding, painting. I am not coating the floor this year, I want to get going on the car so it is done by late spring of 16 ( I hope) :G-Dub:

The shop is 95% complete need to do window and door trim and hang a few cabinets, then I can get going to get going on the Camaro. I will never do sheetrock again.

WOW!!! Nicely done!!!


Now - hurry up!!



:D

Thanks Greg, doing it myself (minus taping) took a lot longer than I thought.I am pooped,but can't wait to get going on car. Your house is coming along, it looks great, awesome view.
Kevin

Shop looks great and i like the ceiling too!! :gitrdun:

Looks great! Congrats on getting it basically finished! Now get to work on the car! LOL

Oh and don't worry about not liking to do drywall...I hear it often! As I own a drywall business. LOL

Knowledge of installing it would have been helpful 41' walls, now I have one wall with vertical cracks at the joints in one location from floor to ceiling. I am now repairing it with the expansion joint metal. It never ends.

Yes, knowledge is key...with anything and everything.
We pre-fill all joints with hot mud. Then start the taping process. This fills the voids between the sheets with a hard material. Really helps not get cracks later on. With that said, sometimes you have an area in the structure that just wants to move a tad, and it will always crack. I have one in my own house! Repaired it to the extreme and the next season it cracked! Expansion joints are good in these areas. We use them on plaster jobs at door headers, ect.

Shop looks great!

Thanks Tony, It has been a lot of work but I am pleased the way it turned out.
Kevin

Great looking shop, the wife and I have talked about moving from Denver out your way so we could build a bigger shop, or maybe that was just me talking to myself...regardless good luck with the project.

Nice size shop.

We just did some remodeling. I hate doing drywall, and because I like the look way better, we went with the 'shiplap' look, butting up non-tongue & groove 1x6 boards up against each other.

But on a big shop like that it I guess it wouldn't be price friendly.

Come on out, the only thing that sucks is the commute, all I have left on the shop is getting it organized. We have been out here 3 years in Feb. and I am still hauling boxes out of the basement to the shop, I still have half my Camaro parts in the basement.

Thanks Skip, I staked it out 3 times and stood in the middle and each time it seemed so small, so I kept enlarging it, thats probably why my car isn't done yet.
How about some interior pictures of your shop?

Got any updated pictures? Also, what are the interior dimensions?

I will post some pictures tomorrow, the inside is 41'x41' x 12' high.
