It's tall for sure. 19' for the peak and the wall height is 16'. You won't hit your head on the ceiling that is for sure. roflmao

Wish I had one of those, but it would have to be snow and ice rated.

Thanks. No sod. They already put down the red clay select fill but need to dress it up some and add some that the rain moved. Then, crushed concrete on top of that to form the driveway up to the shed and past.
Then compact it.

A good rule of angling philosophy is not to interfere with another fisherman's ways of being happy, unless you want to be hated.

Looking good. I built my 1st shop totally surrounded by trees, similar to yours. Has to cut down 4 oaks to get it in and still had 1.5' on both sides of my RV when I backed it in. It was snug. The shade was great, but there was no breeze at all circulating thru it. I built the shop I have now with no trees surrounding it and it faces N and S with plenty of breeze on most summer days.

Yes, this one is north south as well. Faces North. We still get some breeze from the South. I have a window on all three sides that are 6' from the floor. I will know more about whether or not I need a mini-split when it is finished. Good thinking about the trees though for sure.

Do you have plans to finish out the wall with plywood or OSB? My shop walls are 14" and I finished the walls with 3/4" plywood up to 8'. I made sure the electrician didn`t run any conduit that would be in the way. Made that mistake on my 1st shop and they ran conduit on the face of the C purlin on the whole building. It makes it much easier to keep the shop clean and you have tons more space to hang shelving, cabinets and organizing in general.

Sounds like yours is real nice with the plywood wall surfaces. I don't think I will finish the walls inside, at least at this point.

Here are two photos of the building progress this morning. The rain last week really hampered their work, but it is much closer. Today they are putting on the roof. They already have the Awning for the RV up.
