I'm going to try to get a new shop up this summer and I'm wondering what you have? I have a budget of about $40,000.00 and want at least part of it to be insulated and heated. Talked to a pole building builder a few weeks back and came up with a couple ideas. I can get 30'x70' with 14' side walls with a 30x30' insulated and heated shop with a 16x12 roll up door and a man door and a couple windows. The remainder would be just dirt floor and uninsulated with a 16' sliding door. The reason for the 30' width is it's cheaper to go narrow and long than short and fat. So 36 or 40' width would get me less square footage for the same money. I can also go 24x96 with a 24x40 shop for about the same money, but don't think I would like that as my old shop was 24' wide.
