I went with truss because of the price, I could get more bang for the buck. If you notice the last bay has no truss but two poles going up to the roof. This way I was able to build a loft 16 x 36. The loft is designed to support 26,000 lbs. Also with the truss I can use my hoist with 12 foot walls. If I had the rafter design I would have needed 14 foot walls which would have cost more.
Please excuse the mess it is getting close to garbage hauling day.

Dubie, it took me 20 years to save up for this shop. Just put a little away at a time some where you won't get at too easy.
