Finished off another section on the interior of the shop. This is going to be the bar area. Need to get my flat screen up and some bar stools. Used barn siding from a barn that fell over up the road from me.

The seven up cans I collected as a teen...cans of all 50 states that stack up to make Uncle Sam. The Ford dealer promo cars were given to me by my grandpa...he was a salesman for Ford.

Hope to get all the interior walls done this winter and hopefully the ceiling next fall.

Doc, yep got all 50 that make Uncle Sam...I drove my parents crazy looking for them the summer of 76. The rest of my walls will be white with gray trim. I wanted a different look to seperate the bar area from the rest of the shop.

If you look to the left in the first pic, behind the A38's....rolled insulation stapled to the 2x6's.

I see said the blind man. LOL I was to busy looking at the A-38's.
I know from doing my barn people told me not to put the insulation up against the metal without a vapor barrier. I did anyway because our old building has been like that for 20 years with out issues.
