Hi Guys, Well you all have almost inspired me enough to attempt an 8x24 storage loft over one end of my shop. I am thinking 4x8 boards 24 feet long bolted through the outside block wall and another 24 foot long 4x8 bolted to 4 diameter support poles. The bottom of the floor would be 8 feet off

Larry asked: What if any special tools will I need? This new project of yours is just a ploy to get new tools. You men are all alike! Hehe I don't know what special tools you'll need, but I'm sure you'll think of something. Have fun. Boop
