The start
YES. I am building my own workshop….....had plans to move old barn, that fell through. The site I have found is a friends property. It already had a cement pad 24×32 . The original building is no longer there. I started 3 days ago.
I am thinking I can build the shell for very low dollars. I salvaged metal from a hail storm. 34 ft sheets for $34. Works out to about 1/3 cost of new metal in this part of Canada.
The design is a horse barn style. 16 ft slope along north to 12 ft peak, then 8 ft slope to front.
Back wall is 7 ft high.
Front wall 8ft high.
Inside under highest beam 12ft high.
On the right side of building I need 8ft opening for my tool trailer. Had to redsign roof a bit. This should give me a 10ft wide by 9ft high door. I also came out another 8 ft in this part.
Insulation and interior might be next year.
At least I will be outta the rain and SNOW !
