    Light suggestions

    Electric was pretty strait forward. I brought a sub panel off of our meter / breaker. I used 2/2/4 & added a 4 AWG ground inside 2" schedule 80 PVC. Drove 2 ground rods at building. Borrowed the neighbors backhoe. It's a real piece, but did the job.

    Insulated the walls with R-19 batts, and used house wrap to cut down on air intrusion. Metal lined interior. R30 cellulose in ceiling with cool shield bubble between the joists and roof metal.

    I went with laminated columns with post protectors to hopefully add longevity. 5000 psi / 4" thick concrete floor with woven wire, re-bar and added vapor barrier.
