Re: My 52 GMC Build
with your truck building ability, I'm surprise you aint building your own garage!!! but will be nice to just have someone else do all that work and you can save your energy for a new killer build (you're taking my COE home right!!!)

Today was a lot of back and forth with the skid steer, with the occasional tamping. 8 of these bins of top soil out and there will be 10-12 tri-axle of A-gravel in to get grade. They have to go a long way through my garage. They should be done filling and packing by the end of today.

You're gonna feel like you died and gone to heaven. Shop looks fun. Starting to frame my "Shed" last week, looking forward to see how you install the radiant heating system. Mines hydronic with 1/2 inch red pex, on 12" centers. Keep on keepin on NC |
Re: My 52 GMC Build
Nice!!
Wish I had place for my own shop.... |
Re: My 52 GMC Build
WOOWowowoww super exciting to see your shop being built. we got quotes on mine and lets just say cooler heads may be prevailing.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Re: My 52 GMC Build
seeing a garage build is almost as fun as seeing a truck build!!! you'll prolly have as much in building it as the one I just bought!!! be worth it though, you def deserve some good space to work in.

Came home from work to find a WW1 trench across my back yard. It's for the gas and hydro. CJ (dog)was having a blast jumping in and out of the trench. I am taking care of the hydro so I had to get the conduit in. You can also see the foam insulation for under the floor.
On a truck related note, I have been mucking with my high boost and got 11psi of last night, then got 12psi on my 2nd pull. Sweet, goes like a scared rabbit. Attachment 1691829 Attachment 1691830 Attachment 1691831 Attachment 1691832 |

Re: My 52 GMC Build
30x40 will be really nice! My shop at my parent's place is 39x40 but there is a center wall divider. That really cramps it but it still beats what I had before. My garage is 28x30 and I wish it was bigger every day. :lol:

My tank less hot water heater showed up :) They got all the screw piles in and the gas line trench all filled in. Progress is good. Also found a random picture of the limbo contest in a newspaper, from the city where the northern showdown show was.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
I'd love to have a sink in a garage or a shop. For the reason mentioned above. :lol:
Nice pic in the paper. I bet if you chop the top over winter, you have a better chance of winning next year. :lol: |

Sorry to disappoint guys no water in the shop. That would be the icing on the cake tho. Water to the shop changes a lot on the inspection side need a drain hooked up to the city's waste water system, the supply pipe has to be 5.5' deep to prevent freezing. The in floor heating will be a closed loop system with antifreeze. The blue water pipe is so I could run a cable to get internet back there, or whatever I want, or down the road water. I'll just have to blow it out in the winter. |

The vapor barrier is down, forms are level and straight, and the 2" foam is almost done. Today they will get the rebar finished up and pipes layedout for the heat. They are hoping to pour concrete this week. :).

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Also on another note 3 weeks today we leave driving my GMC, pulling our camper 770mi in a day and a half to Charlotte NC for the Good guys show like we did last year. We had such a fun trip. Then we are taking 5-6 days stopping along the way to come home. Hope to meet up with some of you along the way.:metal:

Re: My 52 GMC Build
That is again a fun trip to make!

Rebar got finished last night. Wow that is tedious work all the screw piles have rebar tuning threw them. They have to get piping done this morning because the inspector is coming today. I also got confirmation that concrete will be Saturday morning 😁
