Pics not working?

They're still working as far as I can tell. Maybe the host is blocked by the isp you're using?

Dude, you need to spray foam that building. It will water proof it, seal all air leaks and give you good insulation. Winning all around. Big shops FTW!

I'd love to be able to foam insulate the whole thing and be done with it. I got a quote for it last year and it was something like $16k to do the whole thing. No room in the budget for that. I'm leaning towards blowing dense pack cellulose in the walls and loose fill in the attic. That'll leave room in the budget for other things. A 2 post car lift being the thing I'm most looking forward to. I'm getting too old for the jack stands to be fun anymore...

Unreal poll building! Super awesome, I would love to have a little more land and the ability to build a super sized shop. Nice work.

Thanks! If you ever do decide to buy property to build one on, make sure to check the zoning first. I thought I was good to go living in Lindstrom with farm land all over. It turned out my zoning only allowed the building to be 2000 sq ft minus the garage size. I spent the summer of 2013 working with the county to rezone the whole north side of my street instead of putting up the building.

yeah our company put in some filtering, probably that.

The pole shed looks great! I built a 40x80 shed with our new house in 2013, but other than adding some lights and garage door openers, I haven't done much with it. I like the epoxy coating and I'll need to insulate it eventually. Add some more pics when you are done with each phase.

later,
Curt

I'm curious if you have any issues with leaks in yours and if any steps were taken to seal things up when yours was built. I used great stuff foam to seal up the bottom of my building where the siding ribs meet the flashing on the grade board. I've realized that there are multiple leaks that drained out that area. Now they drain out on to the floor. :madashell:

I have to go through and seal all the siding joints now.

Mine has stayed pretty dry. Half of my shed is a dirt floor. We use it for dog agility. So some of the dirt is a little wet because the dirt on the outside is wet. Kind of a sponge effect. But the half of it that is concrete stays dry.

I just found out I am getting a decent sized "relocation" check from my work for moving to fargo. I will be doing quite a few small items around my house to clean it up to get ready to list it. I don't think it will be anything major but if I do I will post something up.

Sad that I just built a great new deck and won't get to really use it :(

Oh, if anyone is looking for a house in blaine or knows anyone that would be interested please let me know. I will toss someone a finder fee if they buy :)

Do you mind sharing what it cost for the initial structure, concrete pour, etc? I have been considering the same thing in the near future and I literally have no clue what that sort of thing costs.
