Well construction has started on my new shop. I kept waiting for a better time to start the construction - you know, better financial situation, more spare time, etc...I finally decided that those perfect times never get here and I need to just get started and find a way to make it happen. The footings for 3 of the 4 walls were poured a few weeks ago. Pics here..

The finished shop will be 40'x60'. The slope of the area is rather severe from front to back - drops 4 feet. I considered several options to deal with the slope, but finally decided to have 3 walls built, and then fill the inside slowly, compacting the fill as I go. When we get the interior close to the final level, we will pour the last wall and then finish compacting to the final level.
More pictures when I get a chance. The 3 walls were poured 10 days ago while I was out of town at gunsmithing school.
I hope you enjoy the pictures.
