Shop First or House First?

[mike69440]

Lots to be said for building the shop first... a dry, sheltered place to work and store materials...

I have friends that built their shop... 50% bigger than they thought necessary and used it as their home with the help of an inexpensive travel trailer during the home construction...

Just something to think about...

If you scroll through the photo's at

you will see a travel trailer and equipment building long before any sign of the home.

I should have built a bigger shop/smaller house.
