    Don, are you letting the supplier erect the red iron and put up tin, or are you doing that yourself? I had not realized your new addition was deeper than the original building - it's indeed going to be a nice shop.

    You got that right! Especially if there's any breeze at all, and it doesn't take much to turn a piece of tin that size into a sail! How about insulation? I used a bubble wrap with foil one side, white the other for the roof panels, but have never done my walls. What are you using?

    After all the interior walls (Booth,sh*tter, and air compressor room)
    and rough out electrical is done, spray foam insulation 6" thick on everything.
    Then combonation, white tin and dryall entire inside.
    Will also install a 5 ton heat pump for a/c and heat.
