[QUOTE="TacomaJD, post: 489079, member: 1780"] I wouldn't think the number would be substantially different between wood post frame and metal frame. I know it would be a little cheaper, but everything else required is still the same. I'd go all metal if in the budget...Hard to beat durability. When I built my little shop at my house (20x24), it was gonna cost about the same to do wood framing (like a house) as it was for full metal (with the red steel perlins or whatever you call it). Could have done wood post framing with metal everything else, but decided if it wasn't gonna be framed walls, I'd rather just have all metal. Initially I wanted framed walls, vinyl siding, shingle roof, etc. to match my little house....but glad I went all metal. Don't make a **** what I do in it, never have to worry about compromising the integrity and longevity of it. Could spray it out 50 times a day if I wanted to. I want a shop-house dammit. [/QUOTE]
