One thing for sure; seal the roofing sheets so they are BAT proof...
make two lists:
Want.
Don't Want.(just as important)
paper is cheap, and don't be shy to beg, borrow or steal ideas to add to the lists..
Suggestions: Don't use the heated shop area for 'junk' storage.... make provisions that make it easy to keep the shop area clear of junk. A scrap iron barrel or hopper that has easy access through a walk-in door.. Same for waste oil, if you don't burn it in a heater.. Provision for a garbage dumpster helps.. If someone suggests to store "things" in a corner, just inform them that your shop don't have any corners (grin)
Don't build a shop area that you cannot afford to heat to comfort.. A smaller, well organized shop area makes tools easier to find without the big chase to the other end of the building... Don't skimp on good lites or brite colors for the walls.. Plan early for floor drains, many folks slope the floor towards the big door, some use gutters..
Heating system?? endless choices here..
The storage area for tractors and vehicles would not need a finished floor, insulation, heating or as good of lites.. So you can cut costs here, or, make this area bigger!!..
