I am doing the exact same project in northern Illinois. Make sure the walls are plumb I am adding studs 16” OC DO NOT MISS RUNNING ELECTIC IN THE WALLS NOW!!
Great idea converting the old barn into a shop, when i was living in Bruderhiem, i did something similar to my old garage, i did the sistering method on my garage, worked well enough. I'm currently looking at land in Southern Alberta, in Whiskey Gap atm, will be building a shouse/ house & garage eventually. Great job so far
I just purchased this property also in southern Alberta. I should have a functional shop for fractions of the cost of building new. The land has another decent sized shop too. But this one is huge.
