Think of this as the pause that refreshes and recharges you for the next part of the plan. Glad you were not more seriously hurt you will back lending your creative talents to your amazing shop in no time.

I'd appreciate any pictures you might be able to share on how your adding the insulation. I need to retrofit an existing building and have researched many methods but I still looking for a cost effective way I can do it myself.

Mine is a 9,000 lb two post overhead asymmetrical lift. The company logo on the lift is Chassis liner. I was not able to locate a manual for this model on the chassis liner web site. I found that the Greg Smith Master series XL-9 dimensions and manual fit this lift perfectly. I moved into...

I hear you loud and clear. I moved into my new home and the 30x50 metal building had romex. Wires ended with wire nuts and electrician tape. Holes through the siding to outside fixtures without boxes just wire nuts and tape hanging in the breeze on the exterior. The shop had one 50 amp 120volt...

This is far slicker than the various thickness blocks of wood I use between my subframe and the jack body. Great example of another innovation from the can do can do Bend Pak team wisely leveraging the creative minds of GJ members. You are both to be applauded just as the narrowing of the bridge...

Wow I am constantly impressed with the knowledge and peoples willingness to share on this site. Mtwaterguy, extra horizontal girths would have made the project simpler that’s for sure. Filling in-between them right now is my best (only) option. Green.bubbly, I did not consider tongue and...

Need some knowledge from you guys that have finished off the inside of a metal building. I have a 30x50x16 uninsulated blank canvas. Ryan’s atomic headquarters has finished off the interior of a metal building and what I’m interested is what worked and what did not when filling in-between the...

Vice grip, I'm interested in making a set of arm attachments so I can make a post lift do what a 4 post lift does best and act as a storage lift. I recall you had more detail in an earlier post and I'm keen on what you have in mind as an improved version. Can you point me to your earlier post...

wait for the bendpack 4 post and use it to install the higher lights

Re: Need advise: 30x60 or 36x50 I have a 30x50 12 and 9 foot doors on the 30 end and it just fits three by three(cars) with almost no room to walk between them. I would like 30x60 so I could build a 30x40 car side and a 20x30 woodshop with storage overhead. that would work best for me. You...

Very good use of the site. Love the 318ti I have one and cannot part with it. You planning on putting the 4 post on the left or right side.

I wonder if you might be able to post a few wider shots of your garage. I’m trying to imagine the overall picture and how all the great detail shots flow together. The features you have incorporated like remote compressor, fire suppression and the electronics make your build truly on of a kind...

I can relate to your trailer backing challenge. I used to live in a planned community and the 24 foot car trailer was kept in a storage facility. it was a 12x30 space less some down one side for metal stud holding one wall smooth on the other and purlins in back. the door was a 10x10 roll less...

Thanks 67pete300 I have archived a copy for future reference. The plan looks like it would support shallower depths as well. I have a steel building with 5 foot distances between the Purlins (I believe the horizontal wall beams are called that). This might make and excellent basis for cabinets...

Re: hot rod garage in the works.38x56 Hats off to you sir. The differences are in the details and the diamond plate around the heater pex lines and the recessed side wall lights in the paint bay so your attention to detail. Keep up the excellent work and the pictures. Glenn

I have successfully used a cam lock strap as well as the ratchet strap idea. It’s easier to release if you get a little too much air in before you remove it. This assumes you have a nice clean smooth rim area for the tire to seal against. Gbcamp72

Thanks for the heads up. I was sourcing my around the shop/yard jeans from the local Goodwill store but this deal on new ones is too good to pass up. I picked up some for my just out of college son as well. Gbcamp72

Congratulations your build it is super nice. Not over the top, super functional, you did it yourself and the details I learned from as you went was enjoyable. I never considered the narrow cabinets until I saw how well you executed them. It passed my final approval a long time ago. Enjoy the...
