Re: Any in the Atlanta area want some garage shelving? Group buy? I've emailed them with a request for the dimensions. Doubt I'll get an answer back today, but I'll update the thread when I do. Anyone else have the ability to help with transporting these things?

Re: How much to budget? I just finished a 50x30 that I had built for me. I did nothing. Garage slab, 2 windows, 1 garage door and opener 18x8, 9 foot ceiling (added $900 to cost opposed to 8 foot ceiling) fully insulated with R39 and R19, 3 service doors, complete ceiling and walls finished off and vinyl siding and shingled roof.

I really need a 1/2" machine but this will have to do for the next year or two. I'd look for a good used machine... you can get more for less...gotta be lots available at your local dealer or on CL.
