So $300k to park a SCUT. Whatever....

Gable end and go 12 foot tall and wide.

This is how I do it...

|Yes, just the straps. My contractor did it at build time, but after everything else was done. This is my third shop and the first one with the added roof insulation. It really helps in Texas.

Look for Linear 3089 remotes. They are very common.

I can't believe you talked the neighbor into this...

Do yourself a favor, first double the roof insulation. It makes a huge difference in this area. I had an extra 8 inches strapped inside my roof. Then add AC. I used MrCool, did it myself, and I'm very happy with it. Mine is 30x40x12 and 36k was overkill.

I have a 36k MrCool. 30x40x12 shop. I would absolutely do it again. The first couple of days it ran it pulled gallons of moisture out of the shop. The inverter units should all dehumidify well since they can run lower speeds as needed.

200 will do everything you need. Have him move the 100 amp panel to the barn or shop as a sub. You already have all the breakers you need I bet.

Except on the roof. If you look close you can see the strapping where we added another 8 inches.

It was designed in, one ton with traveler. It is very handy. Great for getting stuff in the loft.

Have the frame wrapped with standard metal building roll fiberglass insulation before putting the metal on, then go inside and strap additional insulation on the ceiling. We get most of our heat through the roof.

I moved my entire shop about 8 years ago. I used a 16' utility trailer and an engine hoist. Heaviest piece was about 2000 pounds, total weight was about 40,000-50,000 pounds. The move was a little over 100 miles, so I could make multiple round trips. For toolboxes and drawer benches, I just...

Mine is red iron with a 6:12 pitch. I put a half loft in it to use the head room.

I did mine with 4 wire 20 amp twist lock plugs. The cord doubles as my 3 phase extension cord.

I have a MrCool. I love it. 36k in a 30x40. It's overkill.

Bamboo

FP mode on MrCool is 47.

It depends on what you expect of the building. My 30x40x12 red iron building is engineered with a 20x30 clear span loft over the back half, and a 1 ton I-beam houst on a trolley. Red iron can give you more options.

it works great....8 years and counting. It really cuts the heat in the summer.
