Are those cathedral trusses? I went with the coffered over those but I'm not sure if I made the right choice. Looking good!

Yes they are. I actually was going to go with the same as yours, but these were 500. cheaper

In hindsight I should of went with the cathedral as my attic isn't really usable with the blown in insulation up there. I plan on using it as storage for something after I make the space usable up there.

I was wondering how tall that was but didn't want to do the scaled math on the door openings.   :2thumbs:


That is one nice shack you got going up there.  :yesnod:  Bet it will be nice when you no longer need to worry about backing up tight to the back wall in order to get the garage door down.  :lol:

Great Garage Brian.  Will it have temp controls?  It gets cold in these here parts ....   Brrrrr....    

I have a 30'x30' with 10' foot ceilings and a loft above.  It is fully insulated with a heater.. no a/c... but it stays relatively cool in the summer with the insulation.  It is where I am doing all work on the Charger and eventually the home of the Charger when it needs a home after being driven.  

What toys do you all have?  Do you still have the '68 Charger we got pulled over in while cruising Decorah?  That was a bad night...  My dad had to come to the police station and get me...  on the way he got pulled over and ticketed for speeding...  he was ticked!  The rest... shall we say... is 'private'... ;)  but I was a bit restricted on sitting down for a few 'days'...  

I Love My Dad!  He disciplined when I needed it... and I definitely deserved everything I got!

Thanks Dad!

Yes. Barness is just the perfectionist I needed. And he is not failing to impress.

Its 30x40 and thats as big as the city would allow,without jumping thru the variant hoops. You are definately not alone with the never big enuf thing. They never are.

The roof is done with the exception of the ridge vent and cap.

If I can find their website, I'm post it up here. This company makes weather vanes and has/had one that said MOPAR for the vane. That would look great on a small cupola for your shop.
