I had this done to my house and the guyus got payed way too much for what they did. i priced it up and could have done it for about 700-900 less than them if i had bought the insulation from Lowes and rented their machine. mu house has 2 attic spaces. i had them insulate the upper one (over 12ft tall origional celing) and it's like 10-12" thick. the lower attic (this is the accual celing height in the house now) when i get to do it will be ~ $400 for insulation (~$400 for the "rental" that gets refunded appon being returned) maybe and it'll be ~4-6" thick.... just what i've experenced.....

I am getting ready to start one, using these directions. Is an 8 foot spacing on the 6x6's going to be enough, or do I need to go to 5 foot spacings? And how hard is it to do the concrete floor after the shop is built? I can't afford that much concrete yet, but I REALLY need a workspace before winter. I can live with a dirt floor for a while.

8' spacing for 6x6 is great............I wouldnt be fraid to go 10' actually...............keep a 3/12 or 4/12 pitch on yer roof and all will be good for snow load.
you can do the concrete after the building is up but ya wont be able to pull the truck inside to do it so it will be wheel barrow time and some real good buddies...................skidsteer works great for this
