Hello from North Idaho! I saw your post on the bike threads and loved the Valkyries. We have a '94 Aspencade and a '04 Valkyrie Rune.... I just moved here and working on the new shop. I saw the lights on the front of your wonderful shop and the inside looks great too. I'll subscribe to your...

That's a nice rack alright... I can use something like that too. Thank you!

Thank you and appreciate you looking too.

The new wood frame is certainly nicer to work with than the steel frame I have when it comes to interior wall work. It looks very nice so far. I have to admit that using external PVC conduit in my shop allows me to make changes & additions to the electrical much easier though. I subscribed to...

Thanks for the suggestion, I have a "use" plan but the lil woman has more uses than I do for it.... actually I have to finish moving all the stuff in the corner to the garage and garden shed then get the concrete cut to pit set the bike lift and that will make a lot of room too. The industrial...

Very nice and almost an auto clinic so to speak. So clean after all the work, how long did it take from start to this point? I especially like the in ground lift and planned to do that for the bike lift in my shop after I get the walls finished. I Subscribed too!

I borrowed the idea from the old 20x30x10 shop for the carport since it had an overhang but almost useless for anything when it came to staying dry and in the shade. So when we had the chance to start from scratch, we went with the long 16' carport.

The old house had weeping willows in the front that were infested with bugs that ate it from the inside and only the swarms of bees liked them so they had to go. I pulled them down one weekend and started on the roof extensions and steel roof.

Thanks for the reply and looking at the new project. I read your thread with delight and believe we have a lot in common in regards to thrifty and re-purposing materials. I really had no choice but to go new after the move. We were paying $170. a month to store what was in the old shop in a 17'...

Thank you for visiting my shop project thread and I really enjoyed reading through your adventures as well. Very inspiring and as Uncle Red says "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy". Looking forward to reading more... subscribed!

Hi, since you were so kind to stop by my build thread I had to check out your wonderful work in progress. I like the soffit lighting and wood work. I can't wait to see more when you get closer to finished, if that ever happens ;) I posted some updates on mine today too!

Doing the inside work now... I ran 12awg solid in PVC conduit for all wall circuits on 20amp breakers - each quad box has 2 separate circuits, top and bottom. All circuits are in PVC conduit for the lights as well. I wired the florescent lights separately with each side on it's own switch and...

Thank you for your comments. The building actually sits on the edge of the concrete and the steel siding extends down 4 inches past the slab. I plan to pull the dirt back and replace it with gravel eventually so that the roof run off doesn't splash dirt all over the sides... maybe gutters with a...

The concrete work and permits were 10.5k and the building was another 10k delivered and setup! They took a day and a half to put up the building after 2 weeks of waiting for the concrete to cure.

Hey thanks for the welcome, Flatland Dave... I get down to the Lewiston, Clarkston area every summer. A spring ride south is my favorite for a season opener. Pics of my new shop in the signature link too.

Thank you, upndown... I had the 20x30x10 pole barn before the move but loved this idea of having it delivered and setup in 2 days included in the price. 10,950.00 plus another 10k for the cement work. The local pole barn guys wanted 15k just for the building, so... I have lived in the area for...

Thanks for the heads up... I had started on my garage project post but not linked it here yet... awesome site!

We moved over the border from Spokane to a newer home in Coeur d'Alene Idaho last Fall. It has a 2 car attached garage but no shop to work on the bikes and store their trailers and all the collective accessories. So I spent the summer putting in the slab and racing to finish the 20x30x11...

I found this site while looking for information on finishing my new shop project. I had the slab done this past summer and the building put up in September. Now I am insulating and paneling it before I start the electrical, lighting and heating. I have the power run underground and the panel...
