Swell job Tim, you are certainly making good progress from a stack of wood to a structure. If you do not already know, apply your compound as sparingly as possible and in multiple, thin coats. This will serve to do two things, 1) it will reduce the amount of final/finish sanding and compound being wasted in doing that and 2) it will curtail cracking of the seams. Less is better even though it may take a bit more time. You are absolutely correct about insulation and sealing the cracks. Drafts are the number one source of heat loss, with radiant loss being number two.
What size of power service are you planning to install?BC1Jim

Great to see an update Tim. You must be glad to have all the plaster boarding done too!! What little of that I've done was enough to teach me to stay away from it as much as possible Must be exciting also to be getting this close to having your new "shop" home.Bill
