Been around for a week or two ease dropping on all of yalls conversations. It's finally came time for my shop to built so I came out of my shell.
I'm getting a new shop built this Friday. Its a metal building, 20x30x9. It's going to be made from 12g 2" square tubing with sheet metal. I'm trying to decide how I want to finish the inside of the building. I'm in SE Texas, its gonna be hot and humid in the summer, and cold and humid in the winter. I'm going to have a 9x7 door on the north end and a 9x7 on the west wall, south end. Should be good for getting good air flow with a shop fan. I'm wanting to finish the inside with a some sheeting. I've gotten suggestions any where from T-111, plywood, OSB, to sheetrock.
The wall poles are going to be 5' apart. So, 4x10 1/2" sheetrock is really sounding good. I can get it for 7.50 a sheet around here. My only concern is the 5ft spacing. Might be easy to break being flimsy. I could run some 1x2 or 1x4 runners say 4ft and 8ft off the ground all around the building and then mount what ever sheeting over this.
How would you guys/gals do this? I'm gonna do all my wiring before hand, thats for sure. Any other suggestions for turning this type building into a woodshop?
I really enjoy listening and learning from everyone. I can't wait to get my shop going so I can move my tools out of the garage.
Thanks
Kevin
