Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

I saw the max speed at 143 and thought “where’d you go that fast at?” Then I saw kmh. Thanks for sharing your pics of the trip.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Ya big bridges are cool. I don't even really care when it's done, I just want to get the heat working.
Ya lol I was wondering if it would catch anyone ;) I think the truck will run out of gear at about 95mph

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Shop update:
I wrapped the shop by myself tonight. Now the building will stay dry. It was dark when I finished so I get a pic tomorrow. Spray foam should still be tomorrow so that's cool..... or warm lol

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Shop looks awesome.. what did they quote you for the spray foam...pics are awesome

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

3" in the walls and 5" in ceiling $12,000

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Well the spray foam guys showed up today tarped and covered everything. Took them about 7 hrs to insulate every nook and cranny. I love the guys face shield.

CAD?


I would like to think that kind of insulating upgrade would pay for itself pretty quickly.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Very nice! It is very expensive but well worth it. I'm sure especially up where you live!

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

That guy is not OSHA compliant...is that a plastic bag over his head?

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

dang thats alot of loot, but my friend had spray foam done in his house and you can totally tell the difference.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Shop looks good Lower. Thanks for the pictures from the road, one of the really cool things about your truck is your not afraid to use it.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Spray foam is great. We see it used in houses around here. I’ve been attics with spray foam in the summer and there was some noticeable difference. I’m glad to see progress and see it steady. Are you just doing sheet rock on the walls or will you be using pegboard? My boss used pegboard in his Tajmagarage on all the walls. Worked very good. Looking good dude.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Looking good dude!

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Yes CAD. They say 2-3 years
It was just over double what fiberglass insulation would be, but this is 100% air tight and makes the building stronger.
Yes it is a plastic bag he had a fresh air hose plumbed in
Ya it already feels warm and I have no heat yet. My friend did the walls in his basement and it went up 10*
Thanks Rob Maybe next year we will come meet you on our NC trip.
Thanks Matt Plywood on walls, drywall on ceiling.
Thanks I'm happy.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Saturday weather was dry so I brought the truck home from a friends house and got the GM from my brothers. Wow still lots of room. But lots more to come. Then my son and I temporarily put up 2 of the 6 LED lights super bright. Then Sunday night we had our first snow. It is gone now tho.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Looking good dude. I can’t wait to see the shop lit up big time.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

thats awesome to see, but yes things fill up fast and you gotta have discipline on what goes in there or else it will look like all my crapy looking garages!

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

That's alot bigger than I thought.. looks awesome

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

You and me both
Oh ya we are talking about what will go where
That's what she said ;)

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Shop update: Insulation inspection passed today, all good to finish the building. Also I ordered my garage door but it will be until Dec 5 before it will be put in, oh well. I got my heater mounted, hooked up and pressure tested today. Tomorrow exhaust vent and fill with fluid. Gas will be hooked up next week.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
