Yes, we matched the house color and siding to the house as close as we could. It took us awhile to get a good layout for the shop to look right next to the house the smaller section out front did it. Our snow load is very minimal around there, I think 25lbs. We used plywood over the purlins to...

After putting the windows in his ship, I decided to cut them into my unfinished walls. I have about 8 more windows to cut in.

Thanks again for the nice comments. The house is nice but nothing real fancy. My friend has about 16 classic cars and he wants a nice place for them lol

We started work on the inside. We will finish the larger part later.

Ha, thanks lol

Thanks. Starting on the inside now.

Garage doors go on next week.

He has about 14 classic cars. Early Corvettes, Camaros, Cameo pickups and a few Bel-air convertibles.

Thanks. Now I need to finish mine lol

A few little things to finish, but just about finished.

Thanks for the compliments. The lower section is going to be lap siding.

A few updated pictures of the shop. Should be done this week.

Thanks! We are building this in Beavercreek. Not far away.

The post in the center was in the engineering. We thought it was a little overboard. The blocking for the purlins is on every truss. We put the blocking between the double trusses too.

He wanted the windows high enough that people can't see in The two lower windows are in an office area without his classic cars in sight. Thanks

His wife wanted something a little more like the front of the house, so I suggested a smaller section for the front to break it up a little and not look so long and big.

My wife walked out into the shop the other day and looked around and said "I love this shop!" She is one awesome wife :) She would also like to have less yard to take care of lol

We ended up using the vise grips with rubber pads on them and my brother-in-law pulled one end up with a rope connected to the vice grips and me guiding the piece up not letting it hit the ground. Thanks for all the advice!
