Nice! Congrats. I like the opposing doors, should have some good airflow through there.

Good deal, you're going to love it! I built mine in 2007 after the plant I worked in closed down and sent our work overseas. People thought I was crazy for building it because i didn't have a job. Years ago, I built houses for a living. So having all the time on my hands worked out well and saved me a ton of money. I love my shop, it is the proverbial 5 pound bag with 10 pounds of crap in it though. LOL

Looks great. Congrats. What type of construction is that? I've never seen that style metal beams instead of lumber.

Nice! Wouldn't take most of us too long to fill that empty floor space! Up here you could rent the space you don't use for off-season storage.
