Hey guys, thought you might like to see my biggest project yet to date (biggest in my whole life actually!) It Started in May when they poured the concrete and as of today it is weather tight and I have started on the electrical rough-in. I know it is slow going but I have 2 kids to care for and a job to maintain as well, so forgive my slower progress as I have done 90% of all the work myself (literally by myself) and I am a novice!

Looks good but you better get the roof on that thing. Winter in MN can come anytime after the 4th of July!
I have nothing clever to put here.

Beautiful structure and should serve you well. I always enjoy building my own building and homes, it just mean so much more of gratitude.

Now the specs! The front of the building is a 29 x 24 2 car garage (read: new wood shop) with an 8x24 dedicated trapping shed in the back. The building has 10 foot walls, will be heated and cooled when I am done. I have plans to add more windows next year but for now the budget is broke lol.

I designed it, I tried to find ready made plans but couldn't, I looked for weeks and ended up having to submit all my hand drawn plans for the building permit but luckily they asked only for 1 revision before approving it.

That looks like a very nice job on the shed. Lots of work there.
