I made a Sykes Fairbairn double edge dagger on one. If you have the skill it is possible! Elmo

If you use plywood plates make them at least 14" tall and 16" long and glue to the edges. Also use a triangle nailing pattern, it is much more rigid.

Considering your proposed usage of the building I would just put up the white styrofoam fastened to the outside purlins. Use the plastic nailers to keep the screws or nails from punching through the insulation. If you ever decide to finish the walls just put 2x6 purlins inside and attach...

I am getting some osb sheathing installed along with some doors and windows. The doors are for a sorta loading dock and the windows were free. I am going to cover the osb with tar paper. I have some red cedar for the siding over the osb.

Add a shunt trip breaker to your panel and wire the shunt trip to your power feed. When the power comes back on it will trip the generator breaker and then you can turn the main breaker back on. Zero chance of powering the power feed. The best is a transfer switch.

Put a set of disc pads on the front of the Suburban this morning. Fixed my antique disc grinder so I could finish the kiln stand thar I started on Saturday. For my wife's electric kiln. She asked a coworker if he knew of a kiln for sale and he said I have one you can have free. I picked it up...

No need to put the oxy/ acet outside! Turn the valves off when you get through using it!

I like your work and think a 56 ford is neat. My first car was a 56 Mainline two door. The front x member failed in a power slide. The x member sat directly under the battery and most were rotten there.

That transfer switch is made to use a 240 / 120 generator. You should not try to hook it up yourself without knowing what you are doing. Save yourself some grief!

Looks like a good idea. That is what I am going to use when my incandesant 300 watt bulbs burn out! Sane your receipts, most cfl's have a replacement warranty for up to 10 years and most burn out before warranty expires!
