Default Your ideas on workshops

What I'd do if I had about $20k:

30x40' sounds about right.

Get a slab poured and go with a metal truss building.

Insulate it well for a truly wonderful shop.

Put in 10' high walls with high windows and skylights (+ fluors) for
good lighting.

Put in a 9' wide insulated garage-style or vertical rolling door, and
have a nice little HVAC system for year-round use.

Use a 200A main panel and plenty of 120v and 240v twistlock outlets at
50" height would keep them all above the tables/counters, and any
stray sheet stock.


Can this actually be done for 20K?
