No mechanic is more deserving of a new shop. You have worked hard in really tough conditions. Now its time for a lift. Nobody cares about lifestyles of the Rich and Famous anymore. We like to see lifestyles of the hard working Americans who are making their American Dream come true with hard work and determination.
Absolutely. I like watching RUclipsrs who i can relate to not just joe smoe who was born into a million dollar shop with the highest tech stuff who doesn't value it.
The one thing I can give you for advice is to make sure that whatever you build can be upgraded later without having to be torn down. I've been where you are, trust me at some point you'll have the resources to do what you want, so make sure the structure you put in can be insulated down the road because you like to paint and generally not freeze your ass off. You can leave windows off the building and cut them in and install them later, but you'll want them eventually. You'll want it secure as you'll have expensive tools and stuff in there. You'll really regret it if you put something in that can't be made to the way you'd really like it, because it won't be that long before you get there, trust me!
id just make sure he has some metal roofing and siding and to make the spans of the wall supports small enough where u can put in a sheet of plywood between them without it deciding to break in half itll help later on if he wants to insulate it closed cell spray foam would be the best option for that type of building and itd help with the ringing and noise being in a metal box comes with but if u cant afford that what iv done is use some really good sealant and wrap plastic around it for cheap stuff since i live in a wine town you can use thick plastic rolls they use for farming and make it stick to the building with said silicone throw some rockwoll or fiberglass insulation in there put another final layer and before you put the plywood on on just make sure u can fill the holes u tap into with something because steel likes sweating alot and thatll rot out the plywood and get all the insulation soggy which is what you try to prevent with the plastic but if u cant get any of those materials for free or basically nothing itd probably just be cheaper to spray foam it and then paint over it and just leave it that way till u can put up some plywood or something
I would suggest no or very few windows, they take up wall space, require cleaning and are inefficient. led lighting they are so bright and cheap to operate, no need for window light.
My mother alway used to say that “cheap is expensive”.. I will gladly watch a few Temu commercials if it ment you getting a nicer building. Remember it’s not just the building… it’s the insulation that’s expensive, the wiring, its the HVAC, it’s the everything else, and if your going to make this investment your better off doing it on something that will suit your needs for decades to come. You’re investing in your future as you go full time. Buy once cry once.. do it right the first time, and you will be happier on the long run… Super happy for you on this new build !!
Love it! At least you've got the land to build your dreams there, and that's the biggest hurdle for your venture of this channel. I'm 100% for doing the home shop ideas. Even Derek on his Vice Grip Garage channel had to meet this hurdle after years of driving all over to his smaller shops, only to finally move south and onto family land to fullfill his dream shop. I think he just recently added a secondary building, too. But you sir, did it right from day one with your basic pole barn garage. My hat is off to you, and continue the excellent revival content of the vehicles.
Dalton! I know you make some money from your vids ( no idea how much) and probably scratch profit from your merch and stuff. I also know this vid was NOT posted to ask, but seriously, if you open somewhere we can all donate towards your shop, I’d jump on it. I can’t afford a lot but every little helps, and your vids, your persona, and the sheer entertaining knowledge you so very casually throw at us every video 😂😂 makes a donation something I wouldn’t have to think twice about.

One thing that Derick from VGG regretted was not doing the seal on the cement. If possible in any stretch of your imagination, do that seal and coat so that clean ups and any junk like spray paint will just wipe away. He did a update on his build Dalton so check that out. If possible also, frame it so you can drive through at least one stall and your never going to regret doing it. You don't need to do a door now but frame for it. I had one of the largest garages in anchorage... the triple A Subaru shop where we had fifteen men working two shifts to make it all possible. That door had to be added later which kicked my butt. I then poured a slab and put a lift outside so to just take rigs apart for parting out old subaru's and have my own parts. I had a starter building when first starting and the all wheel drive craze hadn't hit and we get a lot of snow so that subaru was money in the bank.
Good call on getting some nice concrete. I did that also and don’t regret it for a second. I also considered a steel frame but found out that the expensive parts are doors, insulation, and running electrical and heat/AC. I ended up going stick built with used lumber. A steel framed building can be more difficult to insulate if you want heat it. I’d weigh the cost of steel vs. wood framing and tin before making a final decision.
Steel would appear to be cheaper. You're correct that running electric is much more expensive, if done to code. As an electrician I'm qualified to not do that
I know it's a worry with blue collar car RUclipsrs. You deserve a better shop invest in yourself. Get that lift up and stay safe. The true fans will always be here
That concrete has that nice black ice finish. The contractor did a great finish job. The only input I have is make sure you get the drainage correct. I did not do that when I built my pole barn shop. I fought the drainage every storm
Here's a thought. You put some 30ft steel shipping containers on the slab. 3 spaced evenly. Then when you get the money you put trusses to bridge the gap(s). You'll have 2 separate garage built on 3 storage containers. And then you can cut doorways in the side of the containers or whatever layer.
This is what it's all 'bout - Proud to see the PBG expansion! ... My only question is: Where's the first oil / coolant spill gonna be? - I want my name on that one!
Good morning from Cape Cod 🦈 Oh No! Now you have two shops to lose, you'll have to work twice as hard Dalton 😉 That's a good size Barn, plenty of room for activities. Keep us updated, although I don't see how we can miss any progress. Congratulations on getting a new building, you deserve it dude. Keep up the good work and the awesome content 👍✌️🇺🇲
You're gonna love this one, Dalton!!! You'll be amazed how fast it will fill up! I think they shrink! Fortunately you are starting bigger than my shop...smart! Good luck brother! Fun video! A+++++
Im so glad u are able to do this even just the slab is a good start, can't wait to see what u do with it, 👍ur whole family with appreciate working in it, best of luck Dalton✌️
My brother put up a 32x56 and for him, the most economical way for sound and thermal insulation was the pink foam sheets held in place by screws with the big plastic washers. Spray foam insulation is good, but needs to be covered with drywall or CDX because it can be damaged easily by anything striking it (jack handle, 3rd bad fuel pump in a row from the parts store being thrown).
Just the way I did my shop perfect slab ! Then tube style garage and had a friend give me the panels too close it in ! Then all we had too do was go inside of it a frame it out ! ! Power , and small sink in back corner ! Perfect !
I have an all metal building for my workshop, it's been great so far. I had mine spray foamed before I even moved anything in. It was well worth it. Heat/AC with insulation makes it so much more enjoyable working on old junk that other people think is scrap
When I was in MO, I used a company out of Bethany for a 20x30, 2x16' door, and vertical sheets on the roof and walls for ~$6500 dollars. For the life of me, I can't remember its name. Warehouse was by the Walmart in Bethany an that's all I remember 🤣
For the garlic. Take the cloves out seperately and put rocks in the water and stand the cloves up on the rocks just a bit in the water. Maintain your water level and watch them take of. 👍✌️✌️
Really looking forward to seeing your shop Dalton. It will be strange not seeing rain come through the roof, but I’m sure you’ll enjoy lying on a dry floor. Good luck dudes 🍀
I’ve got a 24x40x11 carport style shop, i love it. Have them run the metal siding down past the edge of the concrete, and opt to at least insulate the roof.
30x50 is a really good size for a workshop. Not too big, can still heat it or cool it without breaking the bank, can get a lift in there, can park 2 other cars in it. Maybe invest heavily and line it with heavy duty shelving that you can stack engines on? We just put in a 20x50 gravel parking area, with intentions of upgrading it in the future to a concrete slab, then some sort of outbuilding. I'm guessing 5 years and that'll be a reality. We'll see what the zoning board says.
Dalton I went with a metal pole barn And I was gonna do a 30 / 50. And everyone told me that they went with that size they wish they went bigger. So I did. 50×80 with a 16 ft ceiling. Glad I did. Because I am a thirty foot camper twenty two foot boat 2 daily vehicle's my mustang gt and 2 sleds 2 wheelers. I still have room for my 2 post lift, and a big workbench. It cost me a lot more money but it was well worth it. Besides the bank had plenty of money to get it done! Good luck with the rest of your building you deserve it.
I would put one big roll up door on the less slope side for an entrance. Not worry about moving driveway or regrading anything in the front. And windows down both sides. Then install the lift on the other end in the middle. So you could pull cars in and park and still move them to the other end to work on them. Cheapest option to start out. With lighting inside it will be an awesome space
Outside the barn , with new build soon to be inside the barn, nice to see you getting a bigger work shop, could not thick of more deserving person to have anew shop, love the channel and how all your family and friends help.😊
I'm glad to see that you're getting a new garage. You deserve it. I can't wait to see it. Are you going to insulate it and put in a heater and AC? Maybe even a lift? That would be awesome. As for your existing garage, I have an idea for it. Of course, you've probably already thought of it, and maybe even discarded the idea, but why not take some of that Flex Seal spray stuff and do the roof so it doesn't leak anymore? Or at least leak less. Anyway, good luck with it, and I hope you get a lot of good use out of it.
Waterproof is good enough right, as long as the rain stays out the building is good enough. Also heat is nice to paint in.. best of luck Dalton, it's great to see you expanding your homestead. I sure hope you get a bunch of videos out of this project!
I put up a 50x30 VersaTube building. They were local at the time and I saved bunch picking it up instead of having it shipped. All fit easily on a flatbed trailer. They're in AZ (and about 1.5hrs away now) but I'm sure there's someone in KC. Was kinda cool too, I went and toured the facility before I bought it. As far as VersaTube, they do make a quality product and their 'swaged' technology does make it 'easier' to put up for a novice. Though, had it not been for a couple of building pro's advising me here and there, my building would be a MESS. And 'easy' is really not a term I like to use for it. It was 3 months (including concrete done early) of abject misery. I was done with a framed in office, BR, storage, panel, lights, outlets, for 25k. That was 8 years ago...so I imagine that' would be different today. Oh, saved a lot on picking up the roll up door direct too! Good luck with it, it'll be -HE double hockey sticks- but you'll love it eventually, lol.
Heck yeah! That space is going to be awesome. I still like your idea about building one big building over the top of the old pole barn.But for now this is definitely an upgrade. Hopefully dedicated space for painting?
Years ago I use to tear down chicken houses and build shops out of them. Back when was metal trusses Now days no idea but you might look into it lots of work but worth it for the stuff
If your pad has a standard size you could keep an eye out for used buildings. Some of those carports are torn down or up for tear down and you can grab them relatively cheap, especially if you do it yourself. But maybe you even find a company that handles used buildings or resells their used ones. may other advise would be: Get a room or something you can grind in and do that sort of stuff. Doesn't need to be anything fancy, but easily accessible so you'll actually use it. Otherwise everything and i mean everything will be covered in dust.And maybe put your air compressor in there or outside.
I'm glad for you ,you've worked hard showing us how to fix and get our old cars back on the road. I'll be buying some merch to help . Come on folks let's buy the merch and join the doors club and tell everyone tell subscribe . I'll do my part . Thanks again for all you've showed us and the laughter you ,Jessie and especially my man JD. Keep them coming
Looks great! I would just be happy with a flat single car slab to work on so I could use a creeper instead of crawling on gravel and grass. (It would also help when you drop that one nut you can’t find because it’s the same color as a rock!) Even if I had to just use one of those Harbor Freight tarp carports, it would still be an improvement
I've been doing that accessory air compressor for my tires for the better part of 6 months. My little gmc just wants to air down for offroading all the time! Don't quite have the heart to tell her she's just front wheel drive and running self made drag slicks... Also...storage? That's your new professional paint booth!
As the the great Johnny Cash once said, I got it one piece at a time. That's all it is just take your time and I like the random videos myself. Also I'd look into the company Carport Direct, my dad and grandfather had luck with them for a kinda modular building that you could as a kit and add on to later, just a thought.
Dalton you are a man's man. Can't wait for you to have the new shop up and running man. .. screw the haters you been working up to this for a long time congratulations can't wait for the first build in the new shop
Glad to see you are getting a new shop in the future. You deserve it. I'm no pro by any means, but I've heard that money spent on the concrete and drainage is well-spent $.
Great looking slab. I had a floor poured last year for a 30x40 shop. My floor cracked about like VGG. They filled cracks with epoxy and sealed it. I do love rhe smooth floor. I can clean it up with an air hose or blower. I had priced several post frame construction buildings. I ended up going with a 2x6 stud stick built shop. 30x40x10. The Mennonite crew was way cheaper and had it up in about three days.
We put up a postframe/pole barn a couple years ago. Our area has well drained soils, so we are able to go direct bury posts. You might be surprised what you can put up with 8' spacing posts and 2x4 girts. Menards has pretty aggressive material pricing for kits. Happy to fill you in on what we did DIY. We went through a local family lumber yard and their crew that has been putting up agriculture and house PB's for over 30 years and saved half of what the "big guys with nice marketing" wanted to charge. Also, consider r25 bats. We did that and saved over spray foam. A minnesota shop that stays over 55F all winter and sips gas.
Check around for used steel siding, its a great way to save money. Adds some work sealing holes that are not where you need them, but the money you save can be huge.
We did a Versatube metal tube building and they were amazing to work with. We put it up ourselves for my channels new workspace. 32x64x14. You can design everything on there website and they only use USA steel and products. It went together like Legos.
@@outsidethebarn I think the building permit is key. But if your say in some type of audit? I've had guys say they look through their marketplace. Apparently some use their own name and all the info right on there. How much stuff they sold. How much etc.
Dalton - what kind of mahogany are you going with for the paneling up in the balcony area of the library? I'd also go with Czechoslovokian Ivory inlays and you're going to want to use titanium drywall screws exclusively. :P Seriously, looks great my brother - happy see this and we all appreciate you showing the whole process.
Just maximize your storage space think up I built shelf’s I foot up along the walls on one side works great to store parts for long term projects. I have a tube building and love it does what it needs to do. Just make room for storage and get it organized that will help you the most. Get on marketplace looks for cabinets and racks and old filing cabinets work great for parts and for molded tool cases that have specialty tools in them works great you can stack the. And bolt them together and to the wall. Also most of those buildings and 5ft centers so I found sheets of plywood for a dollar a sheet and lined the bottom ok the wall then them so 4 foot tall and ran them horizontal so you don’t run something into the wall. Also installed some shop ceiling fans I found on Amazon made a huge difference in the summer
I was where you are about 25 years ago. I made the mistake of really going cheaper and smaller than I should have in the interest of "getting something up" So let me say this, just to give you something to think about. That slab is gonna be fine. just the way it is. If you can find away to patch your existing shop together to where it can serve you another year or so, and rat hole the $ to put up a real pole barn other more permanent building in a year or so...that may be a path. maybe get creative with going up with the new in phases...frame and one bay up and weather tight now, then another when you can, etc...I think you would be happier in the long run with a building you can insulate and finish as you go than just getting by. I did the cheap, Dalton. I wound up tearing the building down and re using the slab. All I could swing as 20x22 back then. That slab is now our bedroom addition because kids happen. My shop, the last one, is about the same sq. ft. your new one will be, done in two builds. first was 20x30 then 10 years later 24x40 was added. "New side, the 24x40, has 12 ft walls and scissor trussed so a lift fits. Maybe build 20x30 now and add the rest later??? or car port the second half for now and enclose the 20x30? I will buy a couple more Tee shirts. run all the ads you have to, those of us who get it get it...I remember well working in the dirt with a drop light, then upgrading to gravel and a home made easy up contraption that was down more than up, dropping tools and not finding them til the snow melted...I get it. You are a good guy...you will get there.
If I didn't have firsthand experience with the tube steel building these days I'd definitely save money for a pole barn. I really think that I could get 20-30 years out of one, or more
Definitely look into a nice wood stove. They are great for heating up the shop and they burn more than just wood. Cardboard, paper instructions, old rags....😅
We went with a wood frame building with wood trusses. Bought the wood as we could afford it. Went with 1/2 plywood for the skin and painted it blue. Added wood strips to make it look like board and batten. 30 years later it still looks like new.
I hate this guy 🙄
Yeah, well we all hate you too. All you do is half ass things, idiot.
Alright you 2 stop arguing your family!😂
Bruh😂
@J-High666 LOL, I thought I had seen a family resemblance .😅😅😅

We're going to build a retaining wall behind it, that's going to help
Curious as to how much for that size of pad. Looks great..
If you think about it, the metal tubes in a tube frame are being used as poles, so it's still a pole barn. Just with metal poles.
Here's a thought. You put some 30ft steel shipping containers on the slab. 3 spaced evenly. Then when you get the money you put trusses to bridge the gap(s). You'll have 2 separate garage built on 3 storage containers. And then you can cut doorways in the side of the containers or whatever layer.

I’ve got a 24x40x11 carport style shop, i love it. Have them run the metal siding down past the edge of the concrete, and opt to at least insulate the roof.
So happy for you Dalton...
You've worked your a$$ off for this reward. 👍
30x50 is a really good size for a workshop. Not too big, can still heat it or cool it without breaking the bank, can get a lift in there, can park 2 other cars in it. Maybe invest heavily and line it with heavy duty shelving that you can stack engines on? We just put in a 20x50 gravel parking area, with intentions of upgrading it in the future to a concrete slab, then some sort of outbuilding. I'm guessing 5 years and that'll be a reality. We'll see what the zoning board says.
Hurry up I'm ready to see the new garage!
Dalton I went with a metal pole barn And I was gonna do a 30 / 50. And everyone told me that they went with that size they wish they went bigger. So I did. 50×80 with a 16 ft ceiling. Glad I did. Because I am a thirty foot camper twenty two foot boat 2 daily vehicle's my mustang gt and 2 sleds 2 wheelers. I still have room for my 2 post lift, and a big workbench. It cost me a lot more money but it was well worth it. Besides the bank had plenty of money to get it done! Good luck with the rest of your building you deserve it.
One bottle of green "Goop" for tires can fix three tires, maybe more and can pay for itself with saved time by not waiting for flats to reinflate.
My Dad used to build Pole Barns in the 60's. Built a Pole Barn Garage where we grew up - stood for over 45 years. I wish you the best.
I would put one big roll up door on the less slope side for an entrance. Not worry about moving driveway or regrading anything in the front. And windows down both sides. Then install the lift on the other end in the middle. So you could pull cars in and park and still move them to the other end to work on them. Cheapest option to start out. With lighting inside it will be an awesome space
Outside the barn , with new build soon to be inside the barn, nice to see you getting a bigger work shop, could not thick of more deserving person to have anew shop, love the channel and how all your family and friends help.😊
I'm genuinely happy for all of us that you'll soon have a place for your lift. Game changer. Im done being genuinely happy now. It felt gross.
Basic: (20/20/140 mph) $16,795.00 from Mueller building is a bolt together kit that four guys and put up in two weekends.
He can invite Kevin and Mook and company to come down and help. That would be fun to watch!
Best of luck with the new spot for PBG. Can’t wait!
I'm glad to see that you're getting a new garage. You deserve it. I can't wait to see it. Are you going to insulate it and put in a heater and AC? Maybe even a lift? That would be awesome.
As for your existing garage, I have an idea for it. Of course, you've probably already thought of it, and maybe even discarded the idea, but why not take some of that Flex Seal spray stuff and do the roof so it doesn't leak anymore? Or at least leak less.
Anyway, good luck with it, and I hope you get a lot of good use out of it.
Oh! I’m so happy for you! I’m so glad you mentioned this channel. I didn’t know about it. MamaCard is thrilled for you!
Waterproof is good enough right, as long as the rain stays out the building is good enough. Also heat is nice to paint in.. best of luck Dalton, it's great to see you expanding your homestead. I sure hope you get a bunch of videos out of this project!
I didn’t know you had a second channel…already subscribed. Good luck with the new building.
👍👍❤️
Keep us updated on the building 👍
Huge move man congratulations on the success and big step forward. Keep doing what you're doing!
I put up a 50x30 VersaTube building. They were local at the time and I saved bunch picking it up instead of having it shipped. All fit easily on a flatbed trailer. They're in AZ (and about 1.5hrs away now) but I'm sure there's someone in KC. Was kinda cool too, I went and toured the facility before I bought it.
As far as VersaTube, they do make a quality product and their 'swaged' technology does make it 'easier' to put up for a novice. Though, had it not been for a couple of building pro's advising me here and there, my building would be a MESS. And 'easy' is really not a term I like to use for it. It was 3 months (including concrete done early) of abject misery.
I was done with a framed in office, BR, storage, panel, lights, outlets, for 25k. That was 8 years ago...so I imagine that' would be different today.
Oh, saved a lot on picking up the roll up door direct too!
Good luck with it, it'll be -HE double hockey sticks- but you'll love it eventually, lol.
My Dad's always said the more cheaper you are the more creative you are
Me thinks you a have great Shakespearean actor's phasing and tone. Coupled with great wit and irony.
A very entertaining channel. Me like
I'm flattered but really, I'm just some guy 😂
Hopefully the weather gets nice soon, even if you don’t have the whole shop done, you could still install the lift and work outside on beautiful days.
Heck yeah! That space is going to be awesome. I still like your idea about building one big building over the top of the old pole barn.But for now this is definitely an upgrade. Hopefully dedicated space for painting?
Where I live a pole barn is built out of retired drill pipe and it is the cheapest type of building, they are usually welded together by the owner.
Years ago I use to tear down chicken houses and build shops out of them. Back when was metal trusses Now days no idea but you might look into it lots of work but worth it for the stuff
If your pad has a standard size you could keep an eye out for used buildings. Some of those carports are torn down or up for tear down and you can grab them relatively cheap, especially if you do it yourself. But maybe you even find a company that handles used buildings or resells their used ones.
may other advise would be: Get a room or something you can grind in and do that sort of stuff. Doesn't need to be anything fancy, but easily accessible so you'll actually use it. Otherwise everything and i mean everything will be covered in dust.And maybe put your air compressor in there or outside.
Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous!
Pretty soon you're going to be one of those guys with a fancy shop!
I'm glad for you ,you've worked hard showing us how to fix and get our old cars back on the road. I'll be buying some merch to help . Come on folks let's buy the merch and join the doors club and tell everyone tell subscribe . I'll do my part . Thanks again for all you've showed us and the laughter you ,Jessie and especially my man JD. Keep them coming
Looks great! I would just be happy with a flat single car slab to work on so I could use a creeper instead of crawling on gravel and grass. (It would also help when you drop that one nut you can’t find because it’s the same color as a rock!)
Even if I had to just use one of those Harbor Freight tarp carports, it would still be an improvement
I've been doing that accessory air compressor for my tires for the better part of 6 months. My little gmc just wants to air down for offroading all the time! Don't quite have the heart to tell her she's just front wheel drive and running self made drag slicks...
Also...storage? That's your new professional paint booth!
As the the great Johnny Cash once said, I got it one piece at a time. That's all it is just take your time and I like the random videos myself. Also I'd look into the company Carport Direct, my dad and grandfather had luck with them for a kinda modular building that you could as a kit and add on to later, just a thought.
Dalton you are a man's man. Can't wait for you to have the new shop up and running man. .. screw the haters you been working up to this for a long time congratulations can't wait for the first build in the new shop
Thanks man, been a long road and not anywhere near the end of it!
Glad to see you are getting a new shop in the future. You deserve it. I'm no pro by any means, but I've heard that money spent on the concrete and drainage is well-spent $.
Great looking slab. I had a floor poured last year for a 30x40 shop. My floor cracked about like VGG. They filled cracks with epoxy and sealed it. I do love rhe smooth floor. I can clean it up with an air hose or blower.
I had priced several post frame construction buildings. I ended up going with a 2x6 stud stick built shop. 30x40x10. The Mennonite crew was way cheaper and had it up in about three days.
Would you consider buying a used or discontinued disassembled metal building and have local Amish assemble or do your own barn raising?
Dalton, you are keeping it budget friendly. Now we gotta get this man some budget friendly heater and lifts!
Poles and barn is all you need
Well deserved my brother may the shop bring many many more bangers
We put up a postframe/pole barn a couple years ago. Our area has well drained soils, so we are able to go direct bury posts.
You might be surprised what you can put up with 8' spacing posts and 2x4 girts. Menards has pretty aggressive material pricing for kits.
Happy to fill you in on what we did DIY. We went through a local family lumber yard and their crew that has been putting up agriculture and house PB's for over 30 years and saved half of what the "big guys with nice marketing" wanted to charge.
Also, consider r25 bats. We did that and saved over spray foam. A minnesota shop that stays over 55F all winter and sips gas.
I really enjoy your channel! I think you should sell a bunch of your cars that you have, to help finance your new building.
We have nothing but love for you bro
I'm so pleased you are getting a proper sized barn/shop. Look forward to seeing how well it is used.
Check around for used steel siding, its a great way to save money. Adds some work sealing holes that are not where you need them, but the money you save can be huge.
Nice. Congrats 👍
Congrats on the new shop
I went with a Versa-Tube building for my 65 T-bird this past November. Its only a 18x29 but it keeps her dry and safe.
We did a Versatube metal tube building and they were amazing to work with. We put it up ourselves for my channels new workspace. 32x64x14. You can design everything on there website and they only use USA steel and products. It went together like Legos.
Already over my budget. lol
Good to see it coming along.
Mine too 😂
You deserve this buddy. Thank you for great vids....
Look for a old farm building.. But lot of work to dismantle. Market place. Second hand studs for side walls.. Good luck. Enjoy.
Thats cool. I remember when i had my slab poured. Congrats the better you make your property the more money the government gets frim you. Yee ha!
You think the government knows about this? 😂
@@outsidethebarn I think the building permit is key. But if your say in some type of audit? I've had guys say they look through their marketplace. Apparently some use their own name and all the info right on there. How much stuff they sold. How much etc.
Dalton, so proud of you and the success of your channel!
👏🏾 👏🏾 💪🏾 🔥 😎 🔥 💪🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
Dalton - what kind of mahogany are you going with for the paneling up in the balcony area of the library? I'd also go with Czechoslovokian Ivory inlays and you're going to want to use titanium drywall screws exclusively.
:P Seriously, looks great my brother - happy see this and we all appreciate you showing the whole process.
This is very exciting!
Just maximize your storage space think up I built shelf’s I foot up along the walls on one side works great to store parts for long term projects. I have a tube building and love it does what it needs to do. Just make room for storage and get it organized that will help you the most. Get on marketplace looks for cabinets and racks and old filing cabinets work great for parts and for molded tool cases that have specialty tools in them works great you can stack the. And bolt them together and to the wall. Also most of those buildings and 5ft centers so I found sheets of plywood for a dollar a sheet and lined the bottom ok the wall then them so 4 foot tall and ran them horizontal so you don’t run something into the wall. Also installed some shop ceiling fans I found on Amazon made a huge difference in the summer
I was where you are about 25 years ago. I made the mistake of really going cheaper and smaller than I should have in the interest of "getting something up" So let me say this, just to give you something to think about. That slab is gonna be fine. just the way it is. If you can find away to patch your existing shop together to where it can serve you another year or so, and rat hole the $ to put up a real pole barn other more permanent building in a year or so...that may be a path. maybe get creative with going up with the new in phases...frame and one bay up and weather tight now, then another when you can, etc...I think you would be happier in the long run with a building you can insulate and finish as you go than just getting by.
I did the cheap, Dalton. I wound up tearing the building down and re using the slab. All I could swing as 20x22 back then. That slab is now our bedroom addition because kids happen. My shop, the last one, is about the same sq. ft. your new one will be, done in two builds. first was 20x30 then 10 years later 24x40 was added. "New side, the 24x40, has 12 ft walls and scissor trussed so a lift fits. Maybe build 20x30 now and add the rest later??? or car port the second half for now and enclose the 20x30?
I will buy a couple more Tee shirts. run all the ads you have to, those of us who get it get it...I remember well working in the dirt with a drop light, then upgrading to gravel and a home made easy up contraption that was down more than up, dropping tools and not finding them til the snow melted...I get it. You are a good guy...you will get there.
If I didn't have firsthand experience with the tube steel building these days I'd definitely save money for a pole barn. I really think that I could get 20-30 years out of one, or more
Glad to see the concrete going down one step closer to getting to use that lift.....in a safe manner or safer manner i should say, lol
Definitely look into a nice wood stove. They are great for heating up the shop and they burn more than just wood. Cardboard, paper instructions, old rags....😅
Congrats on the new pad!
We went with a wood frame building with wood trusses. Bought the wood as we could afford it. Went with 1/2 plywood for the skin and painted it blue. Added wood strips to make it look like board and batten. 30 years later it still looks like new.
