    Yep. You can thank Photobucket for that. I haven't had time yet to look into another way to host the pics.

    Pole Barn with Wainscoting Corner Trim

    30x40 garage build cost?

    Wow! I built my 30x40x12 mostly myself. I hired out the foundation pour, sheeting and spray foam insulation I have about 18k in it. I've had several quotes for 20-25k for a turn-key shell. I can't imagine it costing another 110k+ to finish it out.

    Osb fasteners

    I've used them on several different houses I have decked and used them for my interior walls on my shop as well. They are almost invisible and make the job really easy.

    Wainscoting top trim

    Yep, it's basically a "Z" shape. I sketched up what I wanted with dimensions and took it with me when I ordered my sheet metal for the shop. They were able to fab it up that day. $1/lf hemmed on the lower edge similar to the pic below.

    Thanks for the compliments! Yep, I meant keeping the heat out. I chose the spray foam for the rigidity and sealing properties. Sure, it's more $$ but the benefits outweigh the costs. Especially in this Texas heat! I plan on applying a radiant barrier to the overhead doors. Obviously they...

    The guys made it out Monday morning and sprayed the building. The temperature difference is amazing. I'm very happy with the results!

    Thanks! I agree with the venting issue you're having. My old shop had the same issues as you described. I had intended on installing some gable vents before having the building sheeted. But that obviously didn't happen. The wife has had her heart set on a cupola since day one. We both really...

    I don't think he will, sorry. It was difficult to get him to venture out my way. Most of his jobs are east of Sulphur Springs area.

    Garage Door size

    I vote for 2 doors. Here's my old 28'x36' setup. I really enjoyed having 2 10' doors in the front and 1 in the back for airflow.

    We had a great time as usual. We did end up on Congress.. not sure that will happened again, though. Not enough hot rods cruising and too many idiots are ruining a good thing.
