Yeah i agree on the concrete, I'm definatly doing the concrete, I'm going to have him give me a price on moving up to 12' walls and then a 10' door. I'll update later this week.
thanks

I just hate spending other peoples money. :D But are you going to heat the shop/garage? If so I'd look at putting pex in the concrete and go with radiant floor heating. Nothing better than laying down on a nice warm floor when it 20 degrees outside. Just my two cents.

I just got quote from an online place for a 32x40x12 with one 8' wing. Gambrel roof with fulll upper deck rated at 50psf. Came in around 22K. Mind you that doesn't include cement and some of the other "finish" stuff, like plumbing and electrical.

as for site prep, he reccomended that i scrape off the grass and level the site out and not put down any type of gravel, he said they will just put down there gravel and pour the concrete. Now i start the permit process, then starts the tractor work.

I love my pole barn. Mine is 30'x30' with an 8' leanto. I'm getting ready to extend the leanto another 10' and enclose it.

Here are some build pics.

Well the progress contimues,
After getting the permit last week, yesterday i borrowed a tractor and got to work.
the sight had a slope to the rear and i had to remove a couple small tree stumps.
After a few hours of work i realized i was not that skilled at loader use, but became better as the day went on, and a boxblade might have worked better than the blade.

The barn is up waiting on the overhead door.
It was unbelievable how fast a good crew can put one up, if i wouldn't have had the concrete floor they could have been done in two days.

now the projects continue,
trench and run electric and water to the barn
wire the barn
pour a concrete apron on the front
put gravel down on the floor of the lean and move all the fire wood and restack it.
regrade and reseed.
