I've been away from woodworking for about 4 years as we built our house and improved our acreage. I'm now to a point where I'm able to get my shop back in order. I have a new 50' x 80' post frame building with an 18 ft ceiling. My plan is to insulate and line the entire shop and then create an enclosed 24' x 50' woodshop on one end. I really don't want that ceiling height in my shop so I'm considering 10' ceilings with storage above. In my last shop, which was 24'x32'x10', I used OSB on the walls and steel liner sheets on the ceiling. I really liked the ceiling as I felt it reflected lighting well. Have any of you installed steel liner sheets on the walls and ceilings of your shop? I like the clean industrial look of steel but am concerned about noise and echoing sounds if I install on the walls. Anybody have any thoughts and willing to share?
