Pole-Barn guy here...........:)

[3/4tonYJ]

glad to find this Forum, already seen lots of good ideas and info;

I built a 24' x 28' Pole-Barn a few years ago, it has @12' ceilings downstairs and upstairs is 16' x 28' with 8' ceilings.

Still has along way to go, and has become one of my favorite "Projects".
Concrete and 100 amp electrical service are complete, but still needs heat, insulatation and upstairs sheet-rock'ed.

here's a old pic............

Looks good, excellant use of the upstairs space. Also keep in mind all of the room there is in the knee walls up there. I built bookcases and storage doors into the loft kneewalls when I put on my garage/office a few years ago.

I've thought alot about that "triangular" space and plan on building some doors for access before i finish the walls.
I've had the idea of putting the heater there..........(when i get one) my plan is to get a used down-draft "fuel oil/kerosene furnace" take-out from a mobile home trailer.

heres a picture that kind of shows how much space is outside the upstairs walls.......

good to see you gregg... and your barn is way more complete than those pics show...

gregg has a very nice shop... let me know when you return home and i'll stop by again when i pass through...

yeah, it is alot further along, the exterior is pretty much complete. But the interior has along way to go.........

i get back in about 3 months, and you are more than welcome to stop by, but you have to bring your cutting/welding/fab skills with you..... my jeep WILL BE running before the winters over..............
