A few things over the years at shops I have run, owned, set-up etc.
-1 side of the building set up with floor drain and grease trap.
-12000 lb drive on hoist, ramps on both ends, above drain.
-Overhead doors on both ends so you can drive straight through.
-1 inch gas line run along the walls for air with plenty of drop downs to hook up small and large air lines, tap at the bottom of each drop down to trap and remove water.
-Plan for plenty of plugs 110 + 220v then double the amount.
this will serve well for the welders, pressure washers etc that you will have on wheels.
-Exhaust system along with make-up air.
-Plenty of lights. Plenty of lights. Plenty of lights.
-Small area for office, manuals, phone, computer, fridge, table, etc.
-Dedicated welding area with lots of power.
-White walls and ceiling make things nice and bright.
-Small shed attached outside to keep noisy compressor in.
-Plan out wall space to best utilize storage space, cabinets, shelves, tool boxes, equipment etc.
-Solvent bath, parts washer, sandblast cabinet, drill press, lathe, etc, take up a huge amount of wall space.
-Plenty of work benches, stationary and on wheels.
-If you are going to put in a washroom don't put it next to the office.
-A stainless double sink in the washroom works much better than a small ceramic bathroom sink, washing up, cleaning + cooling off parts etc.
-Concrete stub wall makes clean-up with a pressure washer a breeze.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
