Very nice, clean, easy to find all your stuf. Are your cabinets from a bank remodel? Lots of locking drawers.
 
Awesome. Looks great. I'm looking into getting something similar. If you don't mind me asking, how much is it to get and/or build something like this? Again Jim, nice shop!!
 
I paid a contractor 3500 bare bones. It is 12X20 with rig venting. I am installing the electric and installation myself. I still need to get power out to it.
 
If you are going to run the wires in a trench, put a little dirt on the wires then lay some yellow caution tape in the trench, that way if someone is digging they will hit the tape before they hit the wires. Nice shop, I like the wood floor helps hide the saw dust.
 
New Shop

How far is your shop from where you are going to pick up your power? Instead of yellow tape, by the time some one finds the tape it will be to late, why not up the power line in PVC pipe? This will not stop your wire from being cut but it may slow them down.
 
I plan on putting in a 1 inch pipe at least 12-16 inches down. The flooring is not done yet because i need to bring in the power. Then i am going to get some laminate flooring to put in there to make it a little easer to clean. I know the wieght of the tools may dig in but hay it is a work shop after all.
 
Looks great Jim, :biggrin:

but don't worry.....it'll be full to the rafters before you know it:biggrin:
 
Yes you can get the pre made and have it set up on your sight but check you local codes. If would have had one delivered i would have to have it anchored which was a lot more money. I saved by having this one bult. It is on 9 12x12 pileings cemented 3 feet down. it is very sturdy no rocking what so ever. and very level.
 
Hey guy's. The wife just saw what I had posted and she stated that I am not done yet. I have to install a bathroom, recliner, mini fridge, flat screen TV, and microwave oven:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:. How's that for a wife!!!!!! But then there might be a reason she is allowing me to put that stuff in there ( ever heard "in the dog house" ):cool::cool::cool:.

Looks like a very nice "dog house" IF SWMBO decides you ain't comming into her new kitchen covered in sawdust and smelling like who knows what!

Congratulations to you on your new man cave! :biggrin:

Hey, no worries. I've been in the dog house for so long I've added on - twice!
Nice shop..enjoy
Cheers
 
Nice looking shop, lots of storage and space. I am glad that you are going to put in electricity. The hanging electrical cords made me nervous for your safety.
