Default Work space

Sorry if this is off topic. I'm going to build a shed to house my oven and spray booth, my garage is filled with too many greasy, dirty parts and projects to get good results. I'm thinking that I will be able to work in a 10x10 area comfortably. This will just house my booth, powder, gun, and oven(3x3). I will do all degreasing and cleaning outside like I do now, perhaps I will build a leanto on the side of the shed to house my parts washer. Can anyone think of any downfalls of this amount of space? Is it too little? I've laid out 10x10, and also been to the Home Despot and checked out comparable sheds, and it seems like it will be adequate. Are there any issues that I haven't considered? I'd appreciate any advice or hints anyone has for me.

Thanks

A 10x10 area should be enough. That is about the same size place that I use for powdercoating. Just make sure you get a shed with a good height ceiling. Some sheds have 10' ceilings in the center but only about 4' on the ends.

The shed should work fine. Make sure you consider where you place the shed so you won't have a problem getting your air and power to the shed!
