@RevStench Thanks so much.!

So I don't know your skill level, so here's a good start. You're going to have to pour a floor, or you could build it out of wood. It would be similar to hanging the floor of a deck. You can insulate under it.
You need to check the building code in your state.

This will give you an idea of what needs to be done, depending on the share of the existing structure.

With the size of it you could build two rooms in the back and still pull your car into it.

Framing the walls be easy, you can add some studs stick them against the purlings, insulate the wall and drywall.

Putting a ceiling on is cake too. This whole project is time consuming if you're doing it alone.

2017-12-21 23:03:26 UTC  

If you want exterior windows you'll have to frame them in, basically doubling the 2x's and adding support footers and headers.

You can keep a metal roof, that blow in insulation is good stuff, you could do something like 13inches on top of the ceiling.

If you want, basically 2 boxes with a doorway in between the rooms and an entrance way. Should be easy enough. You'll have to get the Electricians to help wire it.

Awesome, thanks for the info. It’s already got electricity, just need to make sure it’s up to code. Water too, and a small septic tank out back where he emptied his RV.

2017-12-21 23:36:25 UTC  

Oh cool, you'll have to run outlets and switches, lighting.
Greg can help some with plumbing.

I'm currently working on restoring these right now. I finished and reinstalled the two bottom right casements.

These should be next but theres an 18 foot triple hung with the check rails falling out that's next.

2018-01-10 22:01:38 UTC  

@RevStench bro, that's beautiful. I know you didn't do the glass work, but that's really cool you get to do restorations like that

2018-01-10 22:21:05 UTC  

Thanks bro, saving OUR history one window at a time!😂

2018-01-11 14:30:16 UTC  

@RevStench Brother, your pics are always awesome.

2018-01-11 22:00:55 UTC  

Excellent project! Thanks for sharing the photos.

2018-01-11 22:27:51 UTC

That's going to take a long time to glaze that big boy haha

2018-01-11 23:33:16 UTC  

How many guys in your crew?

2018-01-12 00:01:28 UTC  

Myself and an old man(68 this April). It's rough sometimes. These were "easy" to get out, a little heavy. Each square sash is about 5'8" and the arch is about 8foot tall.

2018-01-12 00:02:01 UTC  

I'm building character😂

2018-01-12 13:19:02 UTC  

Well, you do great work on cool projects. Keep it up. It's great to have a channel like this where the younger guys can see what work should be.

2018-01-18 02:35:58 UTC  

Nice work!

2018-01-18 13:53:14 UTC  

Anyone have any good recommendations for a well made quality axe?

2018-01-18 13:53:43 UTC  

Snow & Neally

2018-01-18 14:01:16 UTC  

The Hudson Bay?

2018-01-18 14:23:22 UTC  

Yes sir

2018-01-18 14:23:42 UTC  

I have the wood axe and the hatchet. Well made and good price

2018-01-18 14:24:55 UTC  

I have been researching them lately and swedish companies seem to be a good option also but most are out of stock due to their popularity. Also they tend to be more expensive. Thanks for the input.

2018-01-18 14:52:56 UTC  

@Gunn Clan - NC#6897 there’s also Gransfors Bruks, but he’s pretty expensive I think

2018-01-18 14:53:39 UTC  

That is what I was going for until I realized how hard its going to be to find one. The waiting list is several months.

2018-01-23 21:59:04 UTC  

Check out these beautiful windows.

Presbyterians did a great job.
