Metal Building/ Garage…

That's badass! If you don't mind, what was the final damage just for the building? I only ask because I see you're in California and I hope to be moving soon (within CA) and will hopefully be getting a shop built as well.

Also, what are your plans for electrical, lights, etc.?

Thank you sir.

Are you sittin down? LOL

Total price for the building with lean to, was $35,125. I pretty much went with every option available.
-heavier gauge steel for the frame(12ga)
and siding (26ga)
-the larger windows 30x53
-fully insulated
-vertical side paneling which gives you 2 extra purlins all the way around for a stronger frame
-and the two-tone wainscoat I thought was definitely more attractive

I used American Steel Carports and they were less expensive by a few thousand dollars compared to everyone else.

Everything is expensive in California.

As of right now. I’ll be running extension cords for lighting and what not, as I have no electrical. I may drop a subpanel from my house and trench a line over for an air compressor, or I can run a gas powered compressor if needed. Not too big of a deal yet. I’m just glad to be in doors and out of the dirt.
