Very nice...

Is that one of those steel buildings that they advertise on TV?
Self assembled?

Its actually a Steelmaster steel building. It retails for $9700, I got it for $3700.
Its 1000 sq ft. Had to assemble it, but it was'nt too bad, other than the permitting and all the hassle that goes with it.

....

I think it's $3.70/sq ft, which is still pretty low. I'm guessing maybe this doesn't include wiring/lighting/insulation/concrete pad etc?

Hey Rollman, yep its a real quality garage. Easy to assemble, although it takes at least three people to stand up each section, here's a pic while we were building it.
Everything fit great, no leaks or anything.

Byrdman, you're right about the cost, that was only for the building, everything else was extra. I did all the work myself tho, so no labor charges, just material.
Here's a few more pics. Don't mind the mess inside, everything I have is a work in progress. lol.

That's a great deal! Did you know someone with the "right" connections, or just catch a good sale?

Don't they make spray-on insulation that would stick to the walls?

Insulation never crossed my mind. I live in Florida, so even on the coldest days its not that bad.

Hey runum, check steelmasters website, they usually have a list of specials, they have some pretty good deals, and its an awesome building, I would recommend it to anyone.
