| I was going to see if i could build a small shop maybe like with a small heater in it for those cold winters i was hope like a 10x10 or a 10x12 to fit my mower in it so i can work on it i was also thinking of using wooden pallets and tearing them apart to use the wood i was looking at Arlild365's shop and i like that. So it would not be a bad thing if you guys would tell me what you think would be good | |

| I always say for size "think of what size would work for you then double it, it will pay off in the future." You'll want a good strong workbench, lots of lighting, an exhaust vent, and I like to have some type of overhang on an outside wall just in case if you have to sit something out for awhile. There is other stuff to consider too like shelving and tool storage but to me that stuff is the last thing to worry about. | |

| Same with me we have a two car door garage with heat and a concrete floor i just would like a little shop to my own to work on my lawn mower and keep it a good storage instead of out side next to the garage under rain and snow | |

| I bot a 12' x 20' shed - aint big enough - shoulda went for the 25 footer. With some tractors, parts, tool box and cabnets - its a tight working area. | |
