Very nicely done. It looks like it belongs there and wasn't an add-on.
And a very nice addition of space. Are you going to make the back half the shop and the front half for cars?

Alex, Originally we built this garage for vehicles,soon after my tools kicked the cars out!!!

Chris - what are the dimensions?
P.S. Nice narrow wall detail.

Looks sharp-a shop addition is always welcome. No structural headers in your walls? Some engineering I missed?
Never got to frame a gambrel, so excuse me if I just put my foot in my mouth.
A fun project, where the journey is almost as fulfilling as the outcome.
Congrats,

Dustin, I guess your referring to the door framing, Cheated above the door (like the shelf space), window openings have double 2"-6" headers.

Matt, the garage is framed entirely with 2"-6" lumber with the exception of the joists which are 2"-8", everything is 16" OC. The sheathing is 3/4 plywood. We also built the original structure about 9 years ago.
