How much did it cost to build my shop, 40x60 workshop price breakdown

I wanted to talk about all the costs of building my 40x 60 workshop, and I breakdown all of the associated costs that may not be on your initial estimate. Some of the different costs associated with building new shop; contractor, builder, electrical, plumbing, supplies, lighting, concrete slab & dirt work, any necessary permits, water and sewer hook ups, and drive way to name a few, I didn't consider all of these items when initially pricing out my shop. I still have a lot of work to do to the inside, such as building rooms, a loft, a bar/kitchen area, and a storage area upstairs. Its tall enough to have some upstairs living area in the back of the shop. All of that will come over time, but for now we can use it for all of our projects around our property, and a play area for the kids. Here in a couple weeks I will do a tour video of the shop and give more details about it. I hope this video is helpful to anyone looking to price out a new shop during this pandemic. Also, good luck finding a lot of the supplies needed for building your shop, and I hear contractors are having a hard time getting workers, so you may have some delays. Please leave a comment with any questions, or if you have any ideas on what to build on the inside!
Let me know what you think in the comments!

I didn't mention the cost of the asphalt drive way because technically its not a cost to build the shop, but its something you may need when considering a shop. I paid $20k for all new asphalt driveway to the shop and replace the existing driveway to the house. You may also want to consider a rock around the perimeter and landscaping, otherwise it looks terrible. Click the link below to watch my previous video about the new driveway:
