I'm getting ready to install a bathroom in my new shop. I didn't put any plumbing in the slab because of all the extra time and cost it was going to take. My plan was just to use a rear discharge toilet that bolts to the floor and go straight out the side of the building with the sewer line. Im...

In the process of purchasing 10 acres and having a 40 x 60 x 16 metal building built. I have a lot of auto parts I need to store and not take up floor space. At first I was just going to build a platform across one end and put it all on that. Then I started thinking about shipping containers...
