I'm really enjoying your series on this workshop build but I'm curious about one thing. I like the plank style sheathing on the outside, it's something they did in the old days but were you planning on doing anything for structural rigidity? They used to cut notches on the inside of the studs and nail in diagonal strips that kept the structure from leaning over time. Were you planning on something like that or paneling, or will there be steel siding on the outside, or what? Just curious.
@cisjohn2616 Ok. Yeah, I used OSB on the inside of my wood shop and it works well. I thought of painting mine white too, the amish do that a lot and it saves on having to have as many lights. I know what you mean on the cash running low. I run into that a lot. lol
Smart thinkin' by mounting the outlets higher. Keep up the good work!

Having the power hooked up will help you get things finished up easier too.

now, don't tell your city that you built it or wired it. If anybody asks say you put up a small tool shed.

Well, that looks good and it is good that you put those things higher, so you don't got to makes complicate moves for plug in. Cool idea.
