Given what my intended purpose is here, I am doing nothing but heating thin air and adding to the acoustics. I like a lower ceiling as a rule just because it feel cozy.
I left the floors alone (aside from sealing the concrete) due to the carbides on the snowmobile skis. Tracey and I ride a fair amount so we are in and out of the shop in the winter time and the sleds would raise hell with any sort of premium flooring.
I keep my personal cars in this building, wash our personal trucks, and a place to hang and have a couple of  |
You should get/make some skates for under the skis and track that you slip on right inside the door. I used them when I had sleds and it's so nice to be able to push the sled sideways into a spot against a wall. Now they hold the plow and I can push that into a corner, when not in use.
My building is just a shell, no windows or inside finish work, so very basic. The guys loved it, as it was the last one for the season and didn't take a lot of time. Concrete was poured the next year.
Yours sitting over a winter from the mason delay was, probably, a positive as you had a LOT of fill and it helps settle and compact it even more than the vibrator did.
