I had the footings and foundation poured last year when my house was built, now time to build my wood shop/ playroom. 24 x 26 was about as big as I could go without taking out my scrub oak and making my wife angry, but I think that space will work out just fine. My contractor stubbed in electrical with a separate100 amp service, as well as a gas line ran to heat the shop. I'm doing10 foot walls along with 12" foundation for a total of 11 foot height. Building in Utah and got a nice break in the weather, so I decided to get going on it. Only doing one 4 x 4 window, 1man door and 12 foot garage door.
