This is a garage that was built by an older lady and myself. I have yet to finish off all the trim and make garage portion air tight. The upstairs has 12x20 deck/porch, mostly covered. Upstairs also has an 28x20 560 ' apartment with all amenities excepting heating. A single slope attached lean-to 900' was added to cover boat and farm implements. Floor space of internal garage is 28x40 with outside covered work area(below upper deck) of 12x40. It has 2 horizontal barn "sliding" doors. All wiring, plumbing, and insulation was done by myself. Only the tie-in to meter was done by certified electrician. At the onset of this project, did determine that new/additional power service was needed and did rent trencher which allowed installation of 2/0 copper plus ground to several outbuildings. One can do this, if plan and sort it out.
As I am usually "on the outs" with ole lady, spend most of the time in apartment until driven in by cold weather. There is lot lacking in construction due to lack of manpower, lack of skills, and required lot of finiglin' to outsmart weight of 28' 12" c purlin be erected by two old people. Fortunately, steel was bought before price of metal got so high.
Well, loading of pics did not work for me here. Will try and add .
