The plan is to use zip wall sheathing with 1" rigid attached from the manufacturer, then I will probably packed the inside walls in a year or two with cellulose before I rock it.
I will have a 12" thick wall when iam done
Doing it this way allows me to get the building to a usable point and put money into it over the coming years.

Default Updated Pics

Its been a while
I have made a lot of progress over the last few weeks and thought i would share with you all.
The interior shots show some of the timber framing, still have to clean them up, they look a little dirty from sitting in the yard for months.
The one shot of the hole in the concrete floor shows the pit for the hydraulic scissor lift
Drove my baby out there for the first time since any framing has occurred, can't wait to park in there this winter, probably get the roof on and insulate before i have to pause to replenish the bank account if you get my drift.

Todd.

It has been a long time since we all got together for a drive. I guess you have been occupied with your project, and other things.

The garage is taking shape. A work in process for sure and can't wait to see the end product.

Keep August 30th open as a few of us are preparing to enjoy some nice roads that day.

Regards,

Mark
