We found a nice house built in 2008. It has a 2 car attached and is on the front of an acre lot, which leaves me plenty of room for a 60x40 out back. Right now the garage is a mess due to moving and the projects that are in work. The Harley is the only vehicle using the garage. Here's a...

Here is a pic of the panel from the 30x40 shop that I was renting for about 5 years. I think it was 125 or 150 main breaker. It was running a water well, only a couple of lights, my mig and plasma-one at a time. I never had issues with power, cause I don't use much for my stuff. My new...

Thanks for the advice guys. I've been really busy moving into the new house and have many projects going at the same time. Building fence and other fun stuff. I had an electrician come out and put me a 220 outlet in the garage so I can run my mig and plasma since there is no shop yet. I'm...

I have no idea what the loads would be. I want to run lots of lights inside. I will run a mig and plasma once in a long while. Nothing too special

I am calling around getting quotes for my shop build to see what everything will cost and was talking with an electrician today. He said he should be able to tap off of the house and run 100A to the shop, if I needed more I should get a seperate service. I'd rather not do a seperate service if...

I want to build a 40x60 and was planning to use steel beams for the main structure. My buddy is a welder and he is suggesting saving money and using 4" square tube for the frame with truss style roof. I just don't know how I feel about the square tube instead of the beams?? With the beams...

My dog tends to run off to the yard with anything she thinks makes a good chew toy. The latest was my beer coozie that I found in the front yard

Let me know what you find for good builders in the area. We are closing on our house at Springtown on Fri and I want a 60x30 steel building, maybe this time next year if I can afford it.

Thanks guys. I'll see if I can contact the company that has been servicing it for the orig owner and see what they say. I'm sure being out of city limits there are prob very few restrictions

We are buying a new house and it has an aerobic system behind the house. We went out today and measured off some space in the back for me to build a shop. We are on just a hair over an acre and the house is set towards the front, so that leaves me plenty of shop space. I want to see if I can...

I've always wanted a lift and now we are buying a house and planning for a 30x40 shop as soon as I can afford it. I need to pick out a lift and make sure I can design the shop and make the proper allowances for the lift to fit and function. I like the 2 post lifts. Biggest truck we own is my...

My wife made fun of me for playing with this, until I mentioned she could layout the living room of the house we are buying. Now she is on her computer making a layout of the living room with our stuff in it.

I helped assemble some arches for my wife's cousin. He bought a house and the prev owner had the concrete pad poured with the channels in the pad for the walls. The parts were all stacked on the pad. It was a pain and took him forever to get it built. I was one of the only people that helped...

This is the style building we are looking at. 10x16 for around $3k, depending on shipping cost. It will be along the south fence line.

We are buying a new house and looking to buy a 10x16 Garden Style building from Lelands. I would like to run elec to the building for lights and at least 1 outlet. Lights are good to have, and need an outlet to run the Battery Tender for my riding mower and I'm sure there will be something...

I just got rid of a bunch of good stuff. We are moving soon and the rental house has a 30x40 shop that I've been using for 5 years. I made 3 trips to the metal scrap yard and one trip to the dump. Put my little 6x10 trailer to some good use. Some of the steel I hauled off was brand new stuff...

No way I'm putting a cargo container in my yard at a new home. Just not happening The house is just South of Springtown on 51. My dad has built 2 wood storage buildings at houses he has owned. I was too young to help on the 1st one, and the one he built recently is in Okla and I'm too far...

Hope to be moving into our new house at the end of this month, bad part is we'll be leaving the 30x40 shop that is at our rental house. The new house has a typical 2 car garage and that's it. I have to store all my tools and equipment in there, and the Harley. No cars will be in there for a...

That's why I won't be doing much of my own work when the day comes that I can build my shop. I don't know jack about construction
