GREAT JOB! What is the estimated cost to have this done? And do you take on customers
Thanks for responding, yes. oh really? I'd've thought there was a special screw for that.
@fdr1516 you know after thinking about it more I lied I used a mix of leftover screws to attach the wood to the red iron and yes I predrilled the steel for the screws to go through and into the wood but I forgot I also used some leftover Simpson strong drive #9 x 2.5 or 3" long screws ( joist hanger screws ) to go through the steel , through the top plate and into the studs and I think I did at least one of those screws at every 3rd stud plus the shorter screws into the top plate randomly . Sorry for the misinformation earlier, it had been a while so I forgot
What screws are you using for the red iron?
@fdr1516 you talking about the screws I used to hold the wood to the red iron ? If so I drilled the iron and used like 1.5" wood screws ( drywall screws ) if I remember correctly
anyway
@shootermcgavin1554 thanks for watching
Ken, great video, awesome break down, perfect shop - my old shop was 26 by 36 and I always wished I had went bigger - I'm hoping with my next build the government switch to Kennedy or even Trump will get the price of materials down. That's what I'm waiting on. I subscribed, you seem like a nice guy. Cheers
@montyrayza7220 thanks ! I really appreciate the kind words and sub and thanks for watching ! Yeah hopefully we get this economy back under control in this next cycle for sure .
What is the size for the chrome caps for the centers of the steelies???
@omega5fisher www.napaonline.com/en/p/BK_7302411 Here's the link to them but if that doesn't work they are from Napa they are balkamp 730-2411 for the center caps . The trim rings are from wheel vintiques they are the 15" hot rod smooth trim rings sku # 3005-15-1 hope that helps. And thanks for watching! Sorry just copy and pasted the info on the caps and trim rings from another comment. Hope that info helps. And thanks for watching. Also the center caps are unfortunately not chrome they are just zink plated trailer hub bearing caps
Price of red iron is premium to builders grade or commercial to residential. Worth every dollar in long run. But also know alot of guys don't borrow and build as can afford.
@Tomcat8911 yeah it is for sure . Yeah, if I hadn't borrowed a little myself, I wouldn't have ever saved enough to just pay cash for everything, so I get that . Thanks for watching!
40x60 space goes quick once you add an office space. I have 5 cars and a small tractor and mower I need to put in. What size should I go?
Man that's a tough question, but yeah the office and mezzanine definitely eats up some useable floor space for vehicles but for me it added that upstairs space and gave me a nice "workshop" type space for benches and tools . As for the rest of my space I feel I could comfortably work on 3 vehicles at one time as long as they weren't getting completely blown apart bur if I was just trying to store cars in the garage like say in case of a storm of going out of town for a while I could probably squeeze 8 midsized cars/trucks if I put one on the lift and one under , probably wouldn't be much room for anything else but as is I could easily put 5-6 vehicles in mine for the night with minimal cleaning or moving stuff. My suggestion is build the biggest you can afford or your area will allow you to build.... like technically mine is just under the maximum sqft my county would allow........ that said I plan to later cover the side parking area that's 30x60 to the left of my shop with a lean-to then close it in later to almost double my closed in sqft but that will be years down the road . Good luck on your shop and hit me up if I can answer anything else and thanks again for watching!

Great breakdown.......I had to find my readers haha. Im building the same dimension garage and this helps a lot. Wasnt expecting the concrete work to be that much, but it is what it is.
@lear60man thanks ! Haha sorry about that I needed to get a white board so yall could see what I was writing better. If I hadn't over dug my footers and everything and just built them to spec I could have saved a good bit on the concrete cost . Thanks for watching and good luck on your building !
@@kenschopshop Thanks man. This is my first time doing something like this and just put in the order for the building last week. Mine is a 40x60 with an overhang so there will be a little extra cost for the concrete there. My problem is im trying to estimate everything by googling costs which never works. At least now im in the ballpark of expectations. I made a deal with my buddy (AC contractor) to help with the electrical stuff and he will get a bay to store/work on his hot rod. Plus it puts eyes on the project when im not around.
I'm considering buying this model but wondered how much room you have to open the doors on the vehicles compared to a true asymmetrical lift where the posts are rotated 30 degrees. My other Bendpak lifts ( XPR-10AS) have been discontinued. I know it makes sense for a company to only have to manufacture one set of uprights, but I think on the consumer side there will be less clearance to open the doors. Even when set up "asymmetrically" with their bent front arm, I wonder how much room you have to open the door to work or at least get in/out. Thanks for the video!
@atomautowerks2172 I have my 94 gmc 1500 standard cab short bed on the lift right now and I can open its door almost all the way . And the steering wheel is at the back of the post and the back of the door mirror is forward of thr front of the post if that makes sense. All the normal vehicles I have had on it so far I had no problems opening the doors but I did have an astro van on the lift and that was a little tighter hut because the back of the door was inline with the post . I do have the lift setup in the wide configuration also . Hope that helps some . Thanks for watching!
I have officially found my dream garage.

Nice Garage! I'm building a 40x50x12 and I'm thinking about getting the same 2 Mr.Cool units like you have, so this is a great video. Thank you, Sir 4 posting it. Can I ask what kind of fans those are where you got them from and how Efficient are they pushing air around you shop?
@pucegtr thanks ! They are Hampton bay industrial 60" from homedepot. They move air really well . With them on low you can feel a gentle breeze all over the shop with them on high They are like a gust of wind moving dust and anything light weight around.

Thanks for the video! Did you use pressure-treated or sill gasket for the bottom plates? I’m debating if I need to do this on my shop floor which is coated with Polyurea Polyaspartic so the plates wouldn’t be sitting on bare concrete.
@steinbierz thanks! And thanks for watching! I used treated sills plates, but I kinda wish I had just saved a few bucks and put the sill gaskets down . I'd think with that floor coating you'd probably be safe with just sill gaskets just incase you ever do get a little water on the floor .

@black12212 thanks I appreciate it !
Hey Ken appreciate your videos I have the exact same shop and I've actually been copying some of the things you've done because they've been great ideas.... question your loft is 10 ft tall and does it come out 10 ft from the back wall because when I measure out to my first structural pillar that's 20 ft and that just seems too big for a loft and it takes up too much of the open area so also besides the height and depth of the Loft would you change the size of it for any reason it seems like 20 ft would just be too deep and take up too much of that big open space especially if you're going to put in a car lift and stuff like that and because of you I found out I could put the black insulation in the roof and I did that and I like it it's really neat looking now
Hey Joe, thanks ! My loft is actually 12' off the back wall, and the floor height is 10' . Yeah, I originally thought I'd want it 20' also, but I'm glad I went with the 12' . I'm actually really happy with the layout of mine as is . I had thought maybe I should have gone with 9' floor to give more height upstairs but as it is now the my toolbox open I still have room between the lid and ceiling fan above it so again glad I did stick to the 10' floor . It's awesome that you went with the black insulation. Everyone seems to like it in mine when they see it in person, too . Thanks again for watching, and it's awesome that I could inspire some ideas for yours, too ! I think I answered everything and feel free to reach out if I can answer anything else
I'll let you know thank you so much for the info I'm going to go measure it out right now and see how it looks
@JoesCountryGarage good deal! Good luck on deciding
How long was your trailer you used to pick up the 10apx lift
My trailer is an 18' long pj trailer b5 buggy hauler 10k rated . I'd think you could put it on a 14' trailer though
Did you consider a dual zone mini split? Im wondering if a 36K dual zone be better or worse?
I actually had considered it at one point with doing one or two 2 zone units like 2 heads on the side wall where my 2 units are now and doing another on the back wall with a big head downstairs and a small one upstairs in the office but just wasn't sure exactly how I was finishing out everything and also didn't want to spend the extra that the multi zone cost plus I would have needed longer lineset extension for them so even more cost so I settled for these but so far I have been happy with them and they do good heating and cooling the shop .
Thx for sharing your build and costs. I just finished my 24x32x10 with 8/12 pitch scissor trusses to allow my lift. It's stick built by me. Insulated R15 walls, R30 ceiling, OSB walls, 24k mini split, 9k lift came in at just under $44k. 5" 3500# monolithic slab was $10.5k and I hired the sheeted and architectural shingled roof for $6800. I did use lifetime guarantee Sherwin Williams paint. 15 gal for $1,200 on sale @ 30% off. Yes. HD paint only would have cost 1/3 as much, but it took 4 coats to cover the wooden carriage doors,10x9, and they don't look as good as the 2 coats of SW on the rest of the shop! Will have to go back and watch the playlist. THX, again!
Thanks, I appreciate you watching and sharing the info on your shop , it helps others that are looking to build to compare or find more reasonable options for them so i appreciate that ! sounds like a nice space ! Awesome, thanks again!
Thanks!@@kenschopshop
Do have the baby spacing info on the wheels
See my response to your comment on the part 2 video I put the info I have there
nice video! i just installed a multi zone 27k unit. i noticed my condenser has the same “hizzin/wind” as yours. Manual states low hizzing noise is normal but have you had any issue? do both units have same sound?
Thanks! yes, both of mine sound the same and so far are still running trouble-free . So far im still very happy with them , my only complaint is the app and for the most part that was ok too but because I was using the remotes in the center of the room on fallow me to better balance the temperature from one side of the shop to the other , once i started using the app it was using tge temp at the unit instead of the remote and in turn was keeping the far side of the shop much colder in the winter by like 6+ degrees so i stopped using the app and just went back to the remotes but now i cant turn them on or off unless im in the shop but .... Thanks for watching!
thats good! yes i did notice the App and Remote counter each other. ill just use the App, but i did notice the app temp reading is identical to my nest thermostat so ill stick to that! i ran mine all last night and woke up to an icebox! it was just the sound that had me worried but i have seen a few videos with similar sound on larger than 24k units.
where did u get the kit
Maverick steel buildings out of ga
One more question do you know the back spacing
Sorry for the delay in response I was trying to get that info from the owner but he didn't know and hasn't pulled the wheels off to check for me but looking them up they are vision torque 143 wheels 18x8.5 front with what looks to be 5.13 bs or +10 offset and the rears look to be 18x9.5 with 5.25 bs which I think is a 0 offset . Hope this helps and sorry I couldn't get exact measurements from the wheels
I am building the same size garage right now, I think im going with spray foam vs the rolls
Awesome! I think for efficiency, the spray foam is definitely the way to go for sure . Congrats and good luck on your new building! And thanks for watching!

Yes stock gas tank . I'll try and get the final video together soon that will show everything a little better

Thanks for watching!
I was wondering a couple of things. How high are your walls? And how high is your measurement? And what would I be able to put a car left underneath? Is what I would like to do in a building that I built. Please comment back very nice garage
Happy to answer, so my wall height of my building is 16' . Under the beams it a little shorter . Most average car lifts require about a 12' ceiling height as a minimum but my lift is actually 13'1" . My mezzanine floor height is 10' so the ceiling under it is about 9'1" . The office ceiling I think is right around 7' if I remember correctly and the bathroom ceiling slopes down with the roof . The storage loft above the office is like 4' tall at the front and 18" tall at its lowest point 10' back so that floor space there is like 10x11'4" . Thanks for watching and thank you ! If you have any other questions just let me know I'll try my best to answer or better explain
Ready great video. Love the shop! (And, get your woman a decent piece of workout equipment!.)
Thanks! Hahaha that bike came from my wifes grandmother's that passed last year and it made it's way here with the old fridge but my 9 year old actually loves using it while she's out in the shop with us . Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing all this information! I got a couple questions: On the site work when you started...how level was that ground? 15 dump truck loads of rock or more to build up? How deep is the rock in the far corner? Does the rock depth vary? On the mezzanine...reason you preferred osb over sheet rock? Definitely interested in the long version of cost breakdown and the concrete sealer info. Thank you!!
Thanks for watching! It was about a 4' drop to the far back right corner. So yes, they cleared all the vegetation off and got down to undisturbed soil, then built it up with 3" recycled concrete. I did the osb just because that's what I was doing downstairs on the bottom 8' and figured it would be a little tuffer then drywall and eaiser to hang stuff on . Inside the office and bathroom will be all drywall though just to give a nicer finished look . OK cool I have been thinking about doing that longer version soon just to help better answer questions people have had . As for the concrete sealer I used is Concrete Sealers USA ps100. Thanks again for watching and glad the info was helpful!

What bolts did you use? amazing job by the way.
Thanks ! All the hardware was provided with the kit with the exception of the anchor bolts but those were specified in the engineered drawings on what I needed .
Do you still like the black colored insulation? Does it cool differently than the white stuff (is it hotter)?
Yeah I love the look of it ! And no it's the same as if it was a white faced because there isn't and direct sun on it . Thanks for watching!
Was your long Hyd hose a little too long? Did yours come with 14-4 even those the micro switch only needs two wires?
Sorry just now seeing your question. I can't remember which one it was now but I think it might have been that one that seemed like it was just a little too long and made it difficult to secure it so it wouldn't be in the way of anything as the lift went up like there was just a little too much slack making it bunch up instead of laying flat/straight. And yes it came with that 14-3 s.o. (4 wire) cord to wire the micro switch and only uses 2 of the wires . Thanks for watching, and hope your install went OK
Help from anyone please? I have a cosmetically beat up 05 XB… would it be cheaper to buy one that looks nice or to get a couple of small dents fixed, spoiler, door lock actuators, windows get stuck, new wheels, and a paint job on my current one? Ones in good condition (much nicer looking than mine) and a few more miles can be found around me in the $5k+ range. I obviously know nothing about fixing up cars
That's a tough call honestly , really if you have one that's in great mechanical condition and lower miles it might be worth getting it cosmetically fixed up but paint and body can definitely be expensive. Maybe get a few quotes from some local shops to see what all the repairs on yours might cost ya and then do the math to see which is the better route to take . Sorry probably not the answer you we're looking for but good luck
My front windows also used to get stuck, I found replacements on Amazon and fixed them within an hour after some UA-cam vids! The door lock actuators all have to be replaced so you’re not taking each one out to figure out which one is causing the issue, cause if ones out, they’ll all go out so might as well! I did that while I was fixing the window actuator too since the panels were off, that took maybe an hour and a half but only cause I decided to do all this at the end of a Bay Area summer 😂 Super easy tho and I don’t consider myself a fixer upper of cars but I sure can fix this car! UA-cam is your friend!
@@PreSwoleBobby thanks… I’m considering trying it myself now.. I kind of like how my XB looks beat up because no one looks at it twice but having those things fixed would make drivability better.
@@wakawaka1976 also check if there’s any pick’n’pulls near you! Salvage yards have been a huge help!
