    new DIY build, looking for some input/suggestions on my plans

    Thanks everyone for the feedback so far. I think I have everything just about ironed out and plan to pull the trigger on purchasing this week. My last concern that I have is the placement of the 8x8 door on the side of the shop in relation to the 2 post lift and the mezzanine (30x10x8) in the...

    new DIY build, looking for some input/suggestions on my plans

    new DIY build, looking for some input/suggestions on my plans

    Yeah originally I was thinking of having the lift closer to the door, but with it being pushed much more inside it should give me plenty of room to get things in and out with a single door (and should save a few bucks). You are probably right, I would just hate to overlook something minor...

    new DIY build, looking for some input/suggestions on my plans

    Thanks, everyone for the feedback so far! lots of good questions that I need to consider during the design. Based on what has been said I have done some interior rendering to help visualize the setup. @jack stand you got a point on the RV idea, with that being said does it make sense to have...
