Ventilation is what I'm trying to figure out on an enclosed garage. Maybe 3-4 screened windows down each side?
If your talking about the garage with the airplane hanger door then no. All the windows are fixed. The shop cools off pretty well with the giant door fully open. Generally when it's 105 out. Doesn't happen too many times. Eventually yhe bav k portion will be framed in with a party area upstairs and clean rooms underneath. These might get hvac.

Finished the building this past weekend. There were 4 of us for the 1st weekend and only 3 of us the last 2 days. The trim and gutters took the longest. It was a great experience, to build it myself. I know every nut and bolt that went into it, not to mention the money saved.

The building is 40x60 and wired for 30 and 50 amps. The sign came from our storage business which my Brother ran till he passed away. I had to keep the sign for old times sake.

The coach is in front of our home and if you look carefully you can see the lake in the background.

Beautiful job, really well done! If I built something as nice as yours I would probably end up renting the house out! Who needs the house!

Here's ours just started

Garage is 50x60 full hookups and drive through. House is 2500sq ft. We think the garage should be bigger than the house!

I'm curious what the metal buildings with heated concrete floors, insulated, wired etc. cost/sq ft approximately? I realize area of country and that type of variable but I am in early thinking stage of building one in the next few years.

Some of these garages are really nice, I have really enjoyed seeing all of the variety.

I currently rent (since 2001) in an underground cave that is humidity controlled and when I retire I hope not to be in this area with the cave available. Thanks for any input you may be able to offer.
