Got the mud (concrete) down. Gotta fill in the middle with and a few extras (power outlet outside, pavers to the rear). About $290.00 for the mud. So in two months I'll be ahead! Yee haw. Click image for larger version

Well Hello Neighbor! It looks good in there. Nice job. BTW, I have some extension mirrors I used before I added the tow mirrors that will slip right on your OEM mirrors. Yours for the taking, just stop by!

PS. I feel your pain

The best advice I got from my father-in-law (who lives in Newfane BTW), was "Get 14' doors"
SAD - What dimensions for that building? I am looking to do the same thing but am unsure what I need vs should do.

Building is 40x50 - but when you consider the 12' porch along the one side the concrete is 50x52

Height in center is 17' - to accommodate the 14' high door. Outer wall height 10'. 2 car garage door is 8' high on front wall - as result, porch roof pitches from the 10' down to 9'.

The idea was to be able to accommodate all toys - including the RV - and still be able to park my truck inside. While still having a workspace.

I managed to do it!

I just realized that some of the above may not make sense without pics for perspective...

Two 14' doors and I can drive right through the center of the building... Porch along this side...



With the RV parked, the truck can slip in right behind it and shut the 2-car door.
