rt2907, I would recommend insulating the walls floor and ceiling first. Then drywall. You might want to see if your able to tap into existing Heat/AC runs as well as cold air returns. Keeping the area well climatized will help. If you can't attach to heat/AC at least insulate it will make a difference in the summer keeping roof heat(sun hitting shingles) to a minimum. In the winter it will make make it more bearable by keeping the cold out. I would recommend a dehumidipher being ran in the summer. It would take the humidity out much like an AC system (making it feel cooler) and keep benchwork from warping and the possibility of items from rusting. <br /> <br />If I left any holes in my explanation or something seems confusing I will check back.
