there is metal clips that are installed between the sheets in between the rafters to keep them from flexing, its code...they are required on 2' centers

Looking good! Can’t wait to see the finished product with all the toys inside.

Ken, sweet shop. www.garagejournal.com is a great site for ideas. I’ve noticed many screen names from OSO on there.

All the framing, trim, soffit's will be done today, installed the ice and roofing synthetic yesterday ( hopefully keep the rain out ) rain on and off for the next 5 days...windows and side door will be installed and trimmed today, going to cover the big openings with tarps until the doors are installed.

What are you doing for the floor?

I have a buddy that does epoxy coating, thinking for doing this ? open for thoughts

We put epoxy coating with a non skid in the 50x80' shop and its held up really well but we did leave the floor bare after cutting the floor/ filling silicone seal in the cuts for about 6-8 months to let the concrete gas off (or whatever the term is) for maximum adhesion. Shop is set up for straight in / straight out with no turns on the floor so I can't reference to how the finish would hold up to that.

Cleanup is easy with the finished floor...I will add the floor does have radiant heat

If you go to our website. www.mercedeshowroom.com. Look at the pics of the cars & trucks
We put epoxy floors with clear.
And colored chips in it.
It has held up very good for the last 5 years and moving the cars around all the time really gives it a beating.

Roof / shingles / ridge cap vent going on today.....

finally weathered in
