mrsmackpaul Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 aprons are always handy I reckon you can work on stuff out side hose stuff before it goes into the shed and helps to keep the shed nice and clean as well at least on the floor Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhead204 Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 My son came out today and we got another area prepped with insulation and rebar tied, will do some more in the am. Will start a 5x60 then along the west wall this area will be where my work benches will be so I don't care if I have a seam there, then I will do a 16x60 along side of that which will line up with the door on the north end, that way when on a creeper I wont hit any seams. the east side we did today is 14x40 and that will be under the loft for the most part, I left out the office pad and the bathroom/mechanical room for now as I don't want to try to finish to floor drains with that much other flat work to do. my reason for not going wider is the power screeds I'm using are a 10 ft. and a 16 ft. if I had a 20+ ft. one would be ideal but cant find one locally.

Timothy Maikshilo Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Awesome job! We all need a place to work on the important things in our life. I had my carpenter stop over last Sunday to look at my idea and will get the price to build it this week. Small but it will work. 15 wide by 54 long shed attached to the dairy barn and sawdust shed. Been working out in the cold for to long! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhead204 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 If i would have done the radiant heat that was the plan, but the cash difference and the thought of having a zone failure changed my mind in favor of the furnace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
