So with the help of my right hand man/son we started sheeting the inside. Only about a hundred sheets of OSB literally to put up between the walls and ceiling. Thankfully I had a friend loan me a sheet lift to do the ceiling. Another example of any idiot can do the job with the right tools so...

As everybody else has said VERY NICE!!! Its hard to believe that they would give you a hard time about anything you are doing on this building!!! Its not like they left it in pristine condition for you! Pin headed bureaucrats cant figure out more value = more taxes Keep up the great work Rob

Siding and trim is all on now! So at least to the outside world it looks done now but we all know are you ever really done? Still have to put up the lights over the overhead doors and beside the man door but that wont be a big deal. Stay tuned

Once it was closed up now I could start electrical and insulation. The bad part is we also started moving "stuff" back in from the storage unit that we rented to put everything in while the old garage was torn down waiting for this one. We decided to go with 2x6 wall studs so we where able to...

Thanks guys! I will get more pics up later today I hope Rob

Roof is shingled, walls sheeted and wrapped doors and windows installed. Some of you guys probably noticed when we framed it up originally I was going to put a 8 foot wide by 7 tall overhead door on the north end of the west wall. I was one of those things that sounded you until you see it up...

A couple of days later the trusses arrived while I was on a work trip so my dad and son played rigger/forklift operator for my brother-in-law and they set all the trusses. Figures i didnt even get to play with the big toy I just had to pay for it. Next day they came back and sheeted the roof...

Took awhile between weather and weekends on the boat and o yea that whole work thing that always seems to get in the way of all the fun that we all like to have. underground stuff is in and covered and the floor has been poured. You may notice that the floor was poured flush with the top of the...

Trenched from the house to the new garage for water/sewer and gas. and had to let my wife play with the toys too! Also ran drain lines from floor drains(3 of them) Then layed down 2.00" foam and ran PEX for future heat.

Foundation and under ground/floor work. Wanted to have infloor heat, 3 floor drains along with gas/water/sewer/cable & power. I boat on the Mississippi River and everybody always says boat stands for B-break O-out A-another T-thousand. So what the hell does garage stand for? Because all this...

Small town in Carroll County, Lanark about 1600 people

First let me say this site is awesome and the work that you guys can do makes me jealous!!! I am going to have to step up my game a little I guess. I was told about this site last week from a friend because I have been building a 35x42 garage all summer (pics will follow soon). I haven't been...
