Lets gets some updates for sure!

I have 11, 6 bulb, T5HO with reflectors. In my 40x60 with Bright white, metal. I only use half of them most of the time. I think it depends a lot on what is covering the inside of building? So 66 bulbs total for me. People tell me " what.... are you working two feet from the sun in here"...;)

Do you know if it is a "Bored" well? Drilled well? I guess just start with how big does it look?

Still good info though...hahahha:lol_hitti

I just did the same thing.....Tried cleaning with different Lysol...etc Cant take the smell!! Think Im taking it off...throwing out! Maybe try some arbourite??(Sp) or something next??

The truss is on the outside of poles on gable ends of my pole building. I figure I would just add a 2x6 to the inside of poles to attach celing metal on the inside. Though I better ask before doing so. Feed back please:beer:

Yeah those ones from homedepot would be great (Two hours away). I have a bunch of 2 inch xps left over from the floor and outside perimeter. I have a bunch of 3/4 inch plywood but lots of work. Think I better look at those ones from Home depot. Just trying to bet my back to cooperate.:dunno:

Thanks everyone, now more ideas, kinda stuck on using rigid XPS, just for ease of work, would there be enough airflow if i went tight to the top of first roof strap. The only airflow from soffit would be through the corrugations in the metal?? I dunno?

Re: Isulation Stops for Pole Building thanks kevin! Are you going to use two side by side? This would cover the 4 foot spacing?

Re: Isulation Stops for Pole Building Makes perfect sense oilslick, thought that also, was wondering about using rigid insulation as well. Just not getting a lot of feedback. Four foot center center 60 feet loog=lots of work at 16 feet walls. Bad back now also

Re: Isulation Stops for Pole Building what has everyone used..or done?

Next project is trying to figure out how to make insulation stops to go on top of wall to celing. I have a pole building, trusses are 4 foot centers. I was thinking about buying the styro foam ones from hardware store that are two feet wide and just using two together? What has everyone...

I was in the same boat! went 42x60, not finished yet. But sure seems to get smaller as times goes by. It will never be big enough, cost should not be that much more for starters? I am thinking about the additional square footage? 100sq/ft? maybe im missing something?

O.K. thanks guys.....KP2 thanks yeah My water lines to the shop will be around 8 as well. Thanks everyone.....wish I owned a hoe,skid steer, mini-hoe, ditch witch, etc etc. oh well hope this projects done before snow flys!
