I had the stone left over from building our house, and the house colors match the building colors very closely. I think it gives an elegant look to the whole place. I will landscape the front too. I will be parking my RV and stuff under the sheds. The inside will have a small office and...

It's cheaper than wood or a kit. The only prefabbed parts are the trusses. The sheds have a very slight pitch of 6 inches over 10.5 feet. More pics have been added here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/63231544@N06/sets/72157632561213535/

More photos today. I started putting on the skin, got 2 sides done working by myself.

Well, it sure lets me know I'm not 30 anymore. I put the 10x12 roll up door up today, by myself. Not easy, nor as simple as I thought it would be. Backed my trailer into the door opening, then manuevered the door onto the rails of the trailer. Took a length of rope and tied it around the...

24x30 Metal shop, with sheds, in Texas Had the slab poured while we were overseas, got back a few weeks ago, and got started. Bought the trusses pre-fabbed but the rest is my own design. Pictures may not be in order, but today I got all the purlins up. Tomorrow, I'll finish the girts and...

This is the first metal building I've ever built, so I've been getting tips from here and other places. Here's a flicker link. The pics aren't in any particular order. I've found the 2 most important tools to get it right were a string and a water level. I needed a tall building because of...

I'm not condoning it, but there locales where you can be perfectly within your rights to shoot a burglar, or even someone committing criminal mischief.

Under the back seat of my truck. Sure as heck i get em all nice and neat in the shop and I need one away from home. If I need one in the shop, the trucks always there

See? That's what I needed. Someone to support my vision of what my "cool" shop will be.

I've got a few air tools, maybe doing some minor woodworking with a brad gun. Airing up truck and tractor tires and such. Not a full time shop by any means.

Hey guys, new here, been lurking and reading a learning A LOT!!!. I have a question. Currently I'm overseas, but i get home next month and am building a shop. I've already had the slab poured. It will be a 24x30 with 2 10 foot sheds running the length of the 30 foot sides. All metal...
