:lol:

had windows in the old workshop they just attracted spiders and bugs and make it harder to cool and are always dirty
and since it will have two mini splits and the walls will have 2 inch R13.1 foam board insulation plus R23 rockwool insulation

why would i want a widow in a R36+ wall when it's 115f+ outside
and it is better to have only one type of light in a shop, and you can get odd shadows with over head lights and windows when laying out stuff

Ventilation?
 
got the 2 doors one upstairs on one end and the main door and will put in a two vent fans with a damper to the overhang in front with a bug screen
for when i'm doing anything with fumes

i will put two 8 inch round vent ducts or maybe 2 6x10 ducts before the upstairs floor goes in and the fans later
