I am curious how other professionals are dealing with building shops.
Are you building an actual timber framed shop or having the standard metal warehouse put up, because it is more cost effective?
What do you think the pro's and con's are of having the business located on your own land vs. a seperate commercial site?
What about outside timber storage during a project?
I can keep smaller projects in my shop during fabrication, but usually the project is to large or I am doing multiple projects at the same time.
My situation: I rent a shop that has about 3200 square foot shop space and another 1000 office space. I have a good compacted yard area but no covered outdoor storage. I have an outdoor forklift, but no indoor crane(I rent the space and the ceilings are to low anyway).
