    That concrete work looks very nice. Nice project overall. Now how do you plan to finish the inside?

    Insulate the walls and that ply is going over the top in a dual layer in slat wall arrangement.

    Wow!
    1. That's the most plywood I have ever seen outside of a lumber yard.
    2. I love the radiant heat, though I live where it is warm. I can imagine that is going to be comfy.
    3. I envy you.
    4. Your shop is big enough to drive a bobcat in... With the bucket up. Dang.
    5. You're my new hero.
    6. Did you say DOUBLE layers of ply???!!
    7. I cried a little as I read this thread.


    Seriously- count your blessings. I dream of one day having a shop 1/4 this size. Please allow me to continue to live vicariously through you.

    The slatwall design is the reason for the almost double ply. It was a CL find on the ply which is why its doable.

    Mike..... I suspect that shop will make you very happy.

    I like your tag line.... I think about it when I step into my shop.

    Well I decided to bookcase the building and I ordered fiberglass kraft faced batts on Friday for the walls. Picked up the 2X6s today - here are the first 189 - full bunk. Menards 11% off week got me off my butt. Bookcasing 24" on center will make attaching the off cut ply sheets I got easier.

    Ordered some rapidair maxline 3/4 master kits last night. Like the thought of having it plumbed for air day one. Anyone using these in their shop? Any lesson learned on installing it?

    I have 139 of 177 2X6s now book cased into the walls on the wall girts 2' on center between the posts. This will hold insulation and give framing to attach my walls too. Each is cut, drilled with a 2" forstner bit and kreg pocket hole screwed to the wall girt.
