I have the same building. If you get 5/16 coupling nuts they will screw onto the ends of the bolts that hold the building together. Then you can use other bolts to bolt 2x4s horizontally. I spray foamed then Sheetrocked mine. Climate controlled workshop.
Yeah I saw that was an option if you want to drywall the ceiling. Honestly, I’d rather just spray foam and paint the foam. It’s $5k just to spray it, pricey expense at the moment, but someday.
Love it. I just found your channel yesterday and saw your shop build video . (nice video ) I was wanting to see more on your shop and was happy to see todays timely edition. I built a woodshop this summer with my son but all I have so far is the finished shell. I still have to figure out the layout so I can run the Electric . It helps to see your layout and hear and see you workflow. I like what you have done. You made smart decisions . I am having trouble figuring out my layout because my shop is in Georgia and I still live in Cincinnati. I am trying to have it ready for me when I eventually move there. I guess I will have to learn how to use sketch up and make a virtual layout. Seeing your layout helps plenty. Thanks for sharing!
Return the Freud bits! The carbide chips on first use often. Infinity tools or white side are superior to Freud. I literally took $800 in Freud bits to woodcraft, just so the manager could throw them at the Freud rep. That I have the same router lift for my Bosch 1817, it’s amazing. Check out Jessem router and table saw hold down guides.
Appreciate the heads up! I’m excited about the Router table and lift. It just showed up yesterday and I purchased the roller hold down guides as well. Only bummer is that the table top arrives damaged with a nasty gash in the corner. Looks like a FedEx mistake. I sent photos to Jessem, expecting and hoping they’ll send a new one.
@ I just route out my own tops from the insert template. Once you buy the template for around $50-60, then you can literally route out a scrap piece of 3/4” plywood and make a mobile version to put on saw horses or do like I did for my primary router table. I used an 8’ rolling tool drawer system from Sam’s years ago that came with a maple butcher block top and routed out with the template for the drop in plate. Versus buying the premade laminate ones, that are maybe 2’x3’. I just inset 2, aluminum extrusion “T” tracks for the rip fence positioning and one down the length for miter guides and sled fixtures…
Plant the seed, And watch it grow? I see, in the future, concrete pad outside the double doors, Doubles as picnic party area, play spot for kids, with, A lean too roof overhead, for, Bar B que area for rainy days, and Also helps in unloading on those rainy days, Keeps you from backing inside and dripping all over. Saw dust, stored in a five gallon bucket, Just add water, Makes for some fantastic FLOOR sweep. The moisture keeps the dust down. Great shop/man cave/garage/quite spot?
Track saws the way to initial cut for sure, that is what I use. I also installed t-tracks on my table.

I’d at least do up to 8’ in 2x4s every 16” oc for outlets and anchor points.
Great space! Looking forward to seeing where this journey takes you.
Thanks, I appreciate it!

Plant the seed,
And watch it grow?
I see, in the future, concrete pad outside the double doors,
Doubles as picnic party area, play spot for kids, with,
A lean too roof overhead, for,
Bar B que area for rainy days, and
Also helps in unloading on those rainy days,
Keeps you from backing inside and dripping all over.
Saw dust, stored in a five gallon bucket,
Just add water,
Makes for some fantastic FLOOR sweep.
The moisture keeps the dust down.
Great shop/man cave/garage/quite spot?
You get it 👍
