well... there is 4 more full (red-yellow-green) inside yet.

we have it on a switch we got a lowes with 3 seperate toggle switches on it. hooked each switch up to each light.

what the light mean:
Red: we arent there, planning on coming back tho
Yellow: CAUTION
Green: come on in

and u can use any combination of the three. o and off means were done for the night.

the neat part was, they were ALL free, and ALL LED!!!

Heres a Pic of the outside of my 30x50





And Here is a pic of how Ive started to remodel the inside. You can see two bays framed out here, each will have a table to work on dirtbikes. And the wie area next to them will be a 10' wide bay for the Rhino Lift. Will also double as a Harley and ATV lift.




And in the last pic here, you can see where the stairs are going up to the lounge/loft/storage area that is over each bay and over the engine room. The engine room will be central heat and air, drywalled and stainless countertops. I am going to open the steel wall up and extend out 16 more feet to make the engine room a total of 24x24. Right now I have the 8x24 framed.




I dont work on my truck much, mainly because its a Duramax, and dont need to be worked on. But even with all that Im building inside of the shop, I will still be able to park my truck and 38' toyhauler inside.
