are you kidding? this is the "...rebuild a shop..." thread. definitely show progress pix. also, you should just go ahead and show all the truss pix on this site as well. your mini-shop is looking good. so whatchagonnado with the mini-shop when maxi-shop is up and running?
some questions. how do the truss spans match up to the existing slab? i counted around 10 or 11, is that enough? is any of the sheet metal siding/roof salvageable? i'm assuming the existing slab is usable, correct?
keep us enlightened stump. Merry Christmas to ya's.
 
...and I'm a lesbian, trapped in a man's body.

If you were indeed a trapped lesbian, then doesn't that mean you'd not be interested in yer own junk? If so, then you are a better man (i mean lesbian) than I, lol.

11 trusses, the top three will need some repair. That should git me 40' length. I didn't have a tape to measure the trusses. It really doesn't matter, it was just a dirt floor shop anyways.

from the building pic it looks like your walls may be reusable. just hope the trusses will cover the existing span if the walls are sound enough to support trusses. if not, we'll just do some rearranging. just gonna have to get some roofing and garage door?

The 090G won't be here until Monday, but the parts are coming in:clap: Thanks to everyone that has either provided parts or cash for parts. I'm really looking forward to this build!

Some of those 090G gaskets look identical to the P-62 gaskets I just sent you.
 
not seeing it close up i didn't know if the walls were sound or not. ya'll prolly right bout starting from scratch. i know its always simpler than retrofitting unless everything just fits perfect. not too early to start talking bout size, shape, height, openings, lighting, ventilation, power, etc. for the new shop. be nice to at least put compacted crushed stone down for the floor, helps keep the dust down.
