welcome! looks great!

Thanks for the welcome guys. I plan on using 3/4s of it for cold storage for a Camper, 40' bluebird converted tailgating bus, quads, side by side and a Harley. I'll have a 26'x32' inside shop heated for basic maintenance on the toys and vehicles, some wood working, reloading and taxidermy. Going to heat the inside shop with a old corn furnace I have to relocate from my basement.

Here's a few more pictures making some progress, 75% Electrical done with 4" 4 bulb high bay fixtures. Love the three I put up so far.

I like the separate heated shop with the high lift door! Makes sense to only heat what you need, plus expandable.

Nice looking build!

I've been working on my heat inside shop. Just had spray insulation done and epoxy painted the floor. Ran a little 1500 w electric heater last night and we went down to 30 degrees. When I checked the room this morning it kept it at 56 degrees. Slat board, peg board and t-111 panels are next.

Looks great! I just built one similar size, 50x96, and it is great to have the space. I'm not as far along as yours but have similar plans with the floor and insulation so it's nice to see yours... for research of course. Keep coming along with pics of course.
