    Garage size question

    I was first going to build a 22x31 shop. Then my great wife said max it out for our lot. We went 24x36. Holy **** I'm glad I did. I have already seen I need bigger. Do NOT go smaller.

    Steel shed kit or plans?

    That's my problem with versatube. From what I could see they were actually high-priced. My 24x36x10 with 3 9x8 doors was $10500 installed. And that was for a vertical roof, 12 gauge steel and 180 mph upgrades

    Romex and conduit

    I see you said I could fit two of them. That doesn't mean I can run two different light switches down one single conduit? Don't mind my picture I did it from my phone. It's just to give you an idea. So 1 conduit with both runs inside. Two light switches one for the left side of the shop one for...

    Lots of questions for my 24x36 detached garage. Location FL.

    90 AMP was not that much more for me to do over the cost of 60 amp. Plus I might have some pool equipment coming off of it at some point. My next question is when I come out of the ground with 2 inch conduit. What's the best way for the connections to go through the metal wall of the steel...

    I have the roof that way. The problem is even on this board there is conflicting data that shows in high humidity places it should be the opposite. I am not in the business and have no idea. You definitely know more than me. Just saying I've gotten all kinds of different information.

    It's initially held in by the double-sided tape along the steel rails. Then the 2 x 4 going horizontal keeps it in place long-term. Don't forget the back side of the insulation is vinyl faced. So it's actually pretty tough.
