Has anyone here built a separate, purpose-built woodworking shop from the ground up? I'm just scraping the surface of the various design considerations and requirements and wanted to know if there are any good resources, books/internet/magazines geared toward providing information to someone in my shoes.
The biggest areas I'm foggy on:
- Financing from vacant land purchase stage through to a mortgage
- Site preparation and foundation work
- Common pitfalls in DIY building
If anyone has found any good resources toward this stuff, or just the process in general, it would really help me out.
Edit: I had a different question in mind when I wrote that title, but I can't figure out how to change it. Mods, if you could please change the title to just "DIY shop building"
