If you do that attic correctly, you might be able to use the space as a kiln. That'd be cool.

Mr_Mike said: Bookcase girts or commercial girts as they are also called, are 2X6s installed flat between posts. My building was built with traditional girts on the outside of the posts. I am adding the bookcased girts to aide in installing batts of insulation 24" on center and to give a surface to securely attach my plywood 1/3 pieces too for walls.

Got it. That looks like a lot of work and I hate toe-nailing lumber.

Mr_Mike said: Oh its worse - I am drilling 2.25" holes in each corner (may switch to cutting corners off at an angle) and then pocket holing each 2X6 to the wall girt. BUT its what I want to do and makes those 2X6s VERY secure for the walls. The Kreg Foreman is coming in very handy right now. Glad its my shop I am responsible for - I only have to make me happy.

Hopefully, the poles are dead vertical and you don't have to cut each girt to length. That would suck.

Mr_Mike said: They all get cut as 8' on center is not an 8' span between them. I can cut a few at the measurement though. Plus they are all getting worked anyway so a cut is no big deal. When I put one up the space gets measured to verify. This is a labor of love for me anyway. Building my dream shop the way I want = AWESOME. This part is a LOT more fun than those twist ties on the PEX LOL. Glad its my shop I am responsible for - I only have to make me happy.
