Hey Whit, where abouts is this place of yours? I may be on my way down to pick up a truck for a friend and might stop by to say hi.

whell its been awhile since I built the shop but I finally got insulation in the attic today.....finally


its amazing that in 7 days this shop was up and it took all these years to get the insulation in

now it will be cool in the summer and toasty in the winter..............Doc remember how hot it was in there when we worked on yer bumper ?

Looks Good Whit... Only thing to add being an ex-truss salesman/engineer use diagonal bracing on your trusses. i have made twice the $$$ on alot of jobs because a small breeze came by and knocked down an unsheathed job.
