Very nice build. I like the panels!

Let me add one more question to the list, would you please provide details on the air line?

Thanks in advance

I haven't installed my compressor yet. I'll post some pictures when I do.

Is that structural insulated panel (SIP) you using for the build?
Yes

what is the roof pitch? whats a rough figure on the build cost?
It's a 4/12. $30,000
Real nice. I don't see many shops buit with that type of construction on here. Do the panels have 2x6 studs in them?
2x4

where are you located?
Brighton IL

It's a rapid air kit I got off the sears website. Its 3/8 tubing and it has a 150 psi working pressure. Very easy and fast to install.

Very nice! Love the setup and the lay out of the shed.

Great idea with the rear rollup door. Do you plan on a Lift?

Wow that seems extremely reasonable, esp for such a large building. Are the SIPs actually cheaper than conventional stud walls? Do you have hook-ups in the business?

I actually just learned about SIPs this past weekend, cool to see them in an application, they're really neat.

Yes I had one planed from the start.

I don't know the price diffrence. I got the building though work and I got hook-ups.

Thanks for sharing your setup! It looks incredible!

Are you happy with the lighting? Are the 8 or 10 tandem strips? T8?

Thanks!
I'm very happy. They are 10 tandem strips. T8

Nice garage! My neighbor used SIPs for his garage as well. From what he told me, the cost of materials was higher than regular stud construction, but the savings come in construction as they go up really fast - his went up in less than two days, and it was a pretty complex building. Another nice thing is the insulation is really good, plus they're quiet.

Great looking garage! The car reminds me of a friend in college that had a VW Golf K2 edition. Someone ran into him and totaled it. He loved that car:(


Well done, sir! :thumbup:
