Excellent job Quarter Life Crisis. What a fantastic job utilizing every inch of space available. Very impressive! Nice vehicles you have there as well! I had a '69 Mach 1 with 428 Cobra Jet for several years before moving to the place we have now, sold it to a gentleman in Australia -...

New install dual stage heat pump in North Texas and we leave it on automatic unless it's crazy cold (single digits, yeah we had that here in North Texas last week). System had no problem into the 20's anyway and mostly ran on the 1st stage at those temps. Our backup heat is heat strips. We...

Original bid quite a bit more than anticipated. Met with builder yesterday that built neighbors shop last year. Spec'd out slightly different arrangement, 34x28 but with 10x14 of front left corner as a carport/patio for dear wife. Likely dropping the water/sewer, crazy expensive for that...

Been in discussion with contractor on 30x28 or 30x30 stick build, he’s scheduled to come by tomorrow or next day with drawings and cost. Been reading about all the shops and builds posted here, so much good information and ideas. Looking forward to sharing our build.
