It's a Morton building, all of the interior work has been done by me. Located near Moorhead.

Another minor update. I finished the tin wrapping around the corner. I have finally hit a point where I feel like I don't have much to do with that wall for a while so I can bring in a vehicle without feeling like it will be in the way. I also figured out what hoist I am going to get. After...

Its been a while but most of the work I have been doing hasn't been very visible, so no updates. I am working on putting tin up one the walls that won't have doors/windows. Before I can do that, I needed to finish the insulation (put up a second layer of Styrofoam, us spray in foam to fill any...

Another quick update, I spent most of my time over the last few weeks doing finishing stuff, such as getting the insulation in the corners of the walls and ceilings, but I also managed to make some significant progress. First, I finished off my front wall. It is now complete insulated, covered...

BTW, stngfever, mustangs are one of the main drivers of building this shop. If you look I the background of my shots, there are 5 different mustangs (4 of which are mine), and I have some big plans for some of them, of which I want a nice shop to work in. Last summer I replaced the entire front...

I did not us any J channel. The walls will actually stick out a little farther (I need to add supporting 2x4's horizontally to the posts to attach the tin to) so I will make sure I have a good finish at the top of the walls. You will never be able to see the edges of the tin on the ceiling. As...

I have made some more progress, the ceiling is now completely tinned! I was able to get my hands on a sheetrock lift with an extension so it would reach the 13.5' ceiling, so besides being time consuming, it really wasn't very difficult. I did it with just my 17 year old son's help, and 1/4 of...

I made a bit more progress this weekend. I got farther on insulating and was able to hang the door so it now slides properly. This is the first sliding door I have installed from scratch (I have a few on other sheds that I have repaired). I found it to be surprisingly easy and straightforward to...

I made a little more progress over the weekend. I finished putting the plastic up on the ceiling, which made a HUGE difference in my ability to heat the shop. I have a 150kbtu nipco style heater that didn't make any impact in the temp of the shed unless you were in front of it, now it can bring...

I am in the middle of a shop build and just discovered this site. Some of the work is complete, but as I get into the details of finishing the shop, I am excited to get some feedback from the group. I have been reading the archives and have learned a lot already. I am a car guy and live in MN...

I've got pics... just waiting to put them on the build thread. :-D

I just discovered this site and am quite excited. I live in the country and have a lot of out buildings, but none of them are heated so I can't do any real work much of the year up here in the frozen north (I am primarily a car guy, and I want to work on my old cars when it is too cold to drive...
