wow. thanks for all the replies. just for some info, since lots of different opinions came up, i like to work on cars, trucks , boats and firearms. i dont know much about framing or any of that and don't really care to. i had a buddy help me frame the 15x17 room a few months ago and i'm just...

So , my friends and I built a 15x17 room in the corner of my pole barn. Its time for me to hang a man door and these are the frame dimensions: 35 3/8 WIDTH 83 3/8 Height When looking at doors on Menard's website is lists the following: 32" Door: Rough opening : 34" x 82 1/2" 34" Door...

Yeah i was pleased with the work as well. No, I don't remember it sweating then and it doesn't sweat now. My barn is 30x50x12 , for now I'm just using a 80k kerosene heater when Im working out there. Im in the process of framing out a 15x17 room in the back corner that will be heated and cooled.

yeah DC Metal did my building. yours?

im in southern, IN and had a pole barn built in January. I had the same problem with my concrete but, I dont remember my walls sweating at all. Here is the thread I started: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=275020 It doesn't do that anymore, concrete stays pretty dry. The...

Thank you for the reply. I should have been clearer but, the ceiling will be insulated eventually but, just not this winter. For the water in the pole barn I had planned on using a 5 gal bucket to catch it I assumed there would be some type of drain pan that it collects in, then drips out...

I have a 30x50x12 pole barn that I am currently building a 15x17x8 room in one corner. The room has two exterior windows and will be well insulated on the walls, but no insulation on the ceiling. My plan is to mount a through the wall AC/Heat unit like this one...

ok i have two 50" overhead fans. just keep them running on a slow speed i guess?

So we have had very cold weather and quite a bit of snow for the last couple weeks. The floor had dried out completely during that time and turned a white chalky color. The last couple days have been really nice, reaching 60 degrees, and once again most of the floor is fairly wet. It is not...

Thanks for the reply , i dont really want to mess with changing out propane tanks. From doing some more research I dont think the electric heater will be very cost efficient to run. Other than the pellet stove , I have been looking at these...

my 30x50x12 was just finished recently. I did one big door (20x10) and am glad i did, i like it much better than two smaller ones.

I have a 30x50 pole barn i will be wiring for lighting soon. Here is a pic so you guys can see how it lays out: These are the 8ft tandem lights I will be using...

so its been about 16 days since the concrete was poured and it still has some moisture over much of it. is there anything i can do right now that would dry it out so i can get some work done in there? the floor is very slick when its wet.

thanks guys , that was a before pic so that is the dimmer switch. the neutrals have a nut on them , i just snapped a pic after i removed it.

Thanks!

So basically I removed a dimmer switch that controls my porch lighting with a timer switch. There are two other switches in this same box, all for other exterior lights. There is alot going on in there! Here is a pic: The dimmer switch I removed is on the right hand side. It had a black wire...

I just had the following built in Southern Indiana, just to give you a reference: 30x50x12 Concrete Slab 4" Approx 400sqft Concrete Slab between barn and driveway 20x10 commercial garage door, insulated 1 x service door 3 x windows 3/4" Thermal 3-HT on sides and roof My permits were $600...

Recently had a 30x50x12 pole barn constructed and I'm getting to the point where I will begin wiring the barn. It has 3/4" 3HT insulation on the sides, ceiling, and the door is insulated as well. I can't get natural gas out to the building and don't want to mess with a propane unit. My options...

i built a 10' formica bench that i picked up from menards. i used 3 of the bottom cabinets for the base. i use it to reload ammo and work on guns and for that it has worked perfect. i would just be careful about dropping something heavy on it, like said above, it will crack. i braced the area...

Thanks for the replies. I have opened the door now and I guess I will just see how it goes over the next couple days. I do not know, it was done professionally.
