New small shop underway

I recently added another 2 stalls to my attached garage. On the end of that I framed in a small shop. Main intention is for woodworking. It is accessed from an exterior door, & by a set of double doors into the garage. The idea being I can walk from the house, through garage (now 4 cars+), into the shop without going outside. Then if I build something too large to take out the exterior door, it can go through the double doors. 2x4 framing. 9' ceilings. 11'w x 25'L. Right now just insulated with vapor barrier. Looking at possible 3' high metal wainscoting with 1/2" thick, 6"wide pine shiplap above that. Thoughts?
Will be installing a forced air gas furnace soon (can see supply in pics) Couple pics to show state so far. Will be asking for recommendations as I move along. Appreciate suggestions and ideas.

Looks like a great work space!

Planning on any kind of ventilation system for the wood dust? Might be best to do that during HVAC and before a ceiling goes in.

Looks good. I was going to ask the same thing, have you thought about ventilation and/or dust collection? A lot of woodworking shops use an air cleaner that hangs from the ceiling. You can buy them commercially, or build your own (there are plenty of plans for them online). If that sort of thing is planned, include a 120vac receptacle in the ceiling to plug it into.

I’m finishing the inside of my barn with pine tounge and groove with a 3ft galvanized wainscot.

Exactly what I'm thinking of doing Lewit12 ! Did you put the OSB under all the wood or just where you're doing the wainscot? Did you nail or screw the pine directly to the studs? Very curious how to do mine.
