    What do you think about these garage quotes (post frame/pole barn) inside?

    That is exactly why I have busted thumbs and a tired back. I just can't afford those kind of prices. I'm putting in a 30x40 with 10' walls and scissor joists as we speak. The building itself, including windows and siding materials costs put me right above $5000. The slab at $85 per cu. yd...

    stains vs dyes

    Absolutely. I have a friend that did his entire home with this as it is a reconditioned barn turned house. I'll ask what he used as a sealer. And yes, there is a tutorial on the sites posted.

    New grease monkey and lover of rust from Alabama!

    Thanks for the warm welcomes guys....and War Eagle! I'll get a thread started for the shop before long. Just finished auging the holes today, and setting poles tomorrow. The roof joists are built already, so it's getting close to looking like something besides a pile of dirt. Until then...
