Hi,
I live in Western Pa where during the months from November through March we are very limited as far as outdoor practices due to temperatures. I am considering building a pole building on my property and would like to size it correctly to be able to use it for some softball work with my daughter over the winter months. Has anyone on here built something similar? I am looking for suggestions on size including height, wall & ceiling material options & best colors, lighting, etc. I have a gas well on my property so will install a natural gas heater and also insulate the building. I have talked to builders and this all seems very doable, I just want to make sure I make it big enough to be functional but small enough to heat effectively when we are using it. I would like to use it for pitching practice as well as hitting by installing a batting cage net. My initial thoughts are 24' wide x 60' long x 12' wall height. Anyone with any expirience doing something similar please chime in as I am sure there are many factors I haven't even thought to consider.
Thanks
