Makes me itch just looking at the photo. So what are you going to use for wall covering? I'm still scratching my head over mine; meanwhile the clock is ticking on decision day.
 
The insulation was delivered today.

@WarDamnEagle its going to be slow roll putting that insulation in the ceiling. My interior finish will be Early American Tin. Since I have been given a building to salvage that has more than enough tin and wood to cover the inside of the building. I can’t argue with free. 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
@ToyotaMatt my collection of Toyota decorations isn’t as extensive as yours but I think I have enough other memorabilia to get the job done. I’m anxious to get to the decorating stage of my building. But that is a long way off right now.

Yesterday I worked on the electrical system some more. The end result is the second row of high bay lights now work.

Saturday afternoon I started installing the insulation. I learned a few things pretty quickly. Putting insulation in the ceiling single handed is a very slow and frustrating process. I also learned that my 61 year old knees and neck don’t appreciate that kind of work. So I have hired my SIL to handle this task for me while I’m working out of town this
week. He made good progress for the first day.

Day 2 progress. I think they have found their groove!

What's the output on the lights? Did you run any calcs for spacing or have a certain floor level lumen # target?
 
I started demolition on the pole barn this weekend. Saturday it was just me so progress was slow. Yesterday my neighbor joined me and better progress was made. The pictures were taken at the end of each day. I only ran off one very large raccoon and one fair sized rat. I’m glad it was cool both days so the wasp community wasn’t very active.

I dropped by the barn after work today to get a few more hours of pulling and sorting done. I didn’t have enough light to get a progress picture but I did get some decent glamour shots of the 68’. It was a very nice day here.

Micheal, very happy for you. It’s going to be a nice pad. Love that you have most things on casters. Giant mindcraft can be done. As always A+ on the planning and prep. Getting it right takes a lot tweaking. Looking very good!
 
@ceylonfj40nut thanks CD! Right now everything either rolls or can be moved with the pallet jack. I‘m trying to think as far ahead as my little brain will allow.
 
Yep, I often refer to "Workshop Sliding Puzzle" or "Workshop Tetris" around here!
 
The ceiling was finished on Thursday. Today I took a break from demolition to take care of a couple of items around the house. Then I started working on insulating the walls.
