Justin,

Yes, I will have 12' at the bottom of the collar ties, which gives me plenty of room. The dormer is functional and there will be a round window there when I find one. The rafters will be visible, but I may cut them out after the inspection and double up at the top and bottom.

+1 on the insulation, and the heaters are about $1,500 from what I saw. Hindsight, I would have built the rafters with 2X8's to allow for more insulation, alternatively, the 'attic' space above the collar ties will have more insulation there.

Question

Oh, and by the way Clive, wtf ?

You show up in the middle of the night with a backhoe, tell me some crazy story about having to put midnight hours on the machine. Then tell me to go back to sleep and agree that I saw nothing.

I did what you asked and now you are calling ME out as to what is under the pad ?

Well, do tell !
enquiring minds want to know

Very nice floor. How many entrances is this garage going to have?
