My home shop is a little 20x30 pole building, it ain't much but it beats the fuck out of what I had before. Biggest hang up I have with it is the walls and ceiling are lower than I would've built them, kinda lacking on head room.
It's not so bad except this stupid fucking truss right smack in the middle. The previous owner of the place sheet-rocked this thing and that made it even worse for feeling like two separate rooms. I pulled the sheet-rock off tonight and it's better with the lights being able to shine through it, but it's still just there taking up space. Is my shit gonna collapse if I double up the top chords and put a collar tie in where the existing 2x4 web/gussets meet them now, then hack all the existing lower bits out?
