    30 x 50 shop

    I went with a Dannmar 10k model. Its bendpaks sister company and had good reviews and good prices. Plus its certified so a little peace of mind there.

    I ended up at $33 a sq ft with no epoxy floor or plumbing. Based on all the quotes I got this was the best deal I could find. Short of using subpar materials.
