Well it is time to build the toy/tool barn.

This is my humble shop site
Scott's Shop

So the barn is 50x60. The rear metal shop is about 25x30. Above that metal shop will be the wood shop. The rest of the space will go floor to rafters, all open (for automotive work etc). Rear right corner behind beam is welding and fab. Upper woodshed will have stair and a garage door for access to use forklift to lift larger projects and tools up there. We will have 3phase and 110/220.
Here goes...

Wow, what a shop! Looking forward to following your progress.

I just finished the shell of my new shop/barn. 50x70 slab, with 50x50 enclosed (10' wings on each side, like a patio). I'm getting ready to add the electrical in the next couple weeks.

Plasti,

Don't know where you are located, but are you planning to put in radiant heating?

Wow, you guys are making my 1000 sq ft shop seem small. And here I thought I was in hog heaven like Eddie's Oscar.

Very nice looking shop you have.
