I've been thinking about building a pole barn/shop. Metal siding and roof. Like what Menards sells, if you are familiar with them.

So one end would be a garage and the other more of a barn type.

Do concrete floor in the shop side and wood or gravel floor in the barn end. There would be a partition wall in between. Have an overhead door for the shop, big sliding door for the barn side and a walk through door too.

Anybody done something like this?

We just bought our own place. When we lived on the ranch we had a barn that was set up for horses on one end and a garage/shop on the other and it was pretty handy. It was a log structure though.

It'll be next summer at the earliest before I get started. So I'm looking for ideas, things you wish you would of done/not done, etc.
