Thanks for the info. Photography is a huge hobby of mine. You have a really good eye for it. I typically use a D90, but it is a pain to lug around. It has made it out on more than one bike ride though. Typically I use my droid phone a lot.

What are you using for a camera Kristofer?

Should I use 2" Foam on the exterior of the slab?

Some other pictures of the build: Pex layout in the new slab. Old Deck: New deck. Still some trim and handrail to finish.

200 amps normal use, 100amp off peak. Out of the 200 amp normal use I am feeding 100 amps to the house. 24' x 42'

Love the tin!!

For as many inquiries I got on it in a short amount of time I should have actually sold it, but regardless it was painless seeing it hauled away!

Up next came the electrical. The existing service to the house was only 100amps and was run overhead. I wanted to get rid of the overhead wires and really had no way to get a new service fed to the house without a lengthy expensive bore job. I decided to feed the garage with a 200amp feed and...

Next came the ceiling. We chose to the use the same galvanized tin on the ceiling after we insulated and installed a moisture barrier. I am really happy with the look. The old stuff has a ton of character and really gives it a great look. Just what I was looking for!! The sheets were 22'...

My walls are only 10' so not really. I could probably make a 4 post work. The attic space is pretty important to me, so I was not willing to give that up if I used Scissor joists. The city would not let me do anything bigger than 10' side walls.

It was quick and painless and saved me a bunch of demo and haul away. From them arriving to them pulling away with the garage on a trailer was less than 6 hours. The new owner paid about $2000 to have it moved.

Thanks guys!! So the outside was done.....time to move forward on the inside. The plan was for exposed conduit on the surface. I am an electrician by trade so this is a no brainer. I want the ability to be able change stuff if needed. After insulating and putting up a vapor barrier I decided...

The came soffit and fascia. I hate the stuff, but luckily I had a scissor lift to do all but the back side of the garage. It went fairly quick. I was able to find a vinyl siding that matched the paint on my house almost perfect, so it was decided to go that route. On the patio side of the...

End of the first full building weekend. Rafters on, first row of sheeting on both sides and vehicles parked inside. View from the bonus room. Within a couple days I had the roof sheeted. We had a storm watch with hail potential so I jammed all the vehicles and the trailer inside...
