a workshop next to my house. There's an interesting thread over on woodnet talking about the different types of construction, the building costs in different areas of the country, and the work that can be sub-contracted out and the work that can be done by the home owner.
I'm considering a metal building from MiracleTruss about 30 X 40, perhaps with a half basement. My thought was to build it so that the front part could be used as a garage, even though I would use the entire structure for a workshop. By designing it so that it can be used as a garage, I thought it would increase the value of the property so that my heirs won't have too much trouble selling it when they put me in the home or have to pay for my funeral.
Anyway, before I make any major decisions, I thought it would be good to get some feedback from some of the other people on this site who may have experience or thoughts about this endeavor.
Hope we get a good discussion going about this.
