I'm a fan of "lean to's" I had one wall that was available. I'll just do a picture story. Were finally getting a little rain here so I'm inside. rough sawn Hemlock from a local guy. I've had the (5) concrete posts in the ground for about 8 years so this was planned for.......... eventually the only real wall. Right now I'm planning on closing the front side and putting a rolling door on the back. That lean to on the left is 30 x 78, this one will be 18 x 38 determined by the scrounged rafters I had hanging around. Do these count for "scrounged" wood ? They were left overs from a town house project. This is where I was yesterday. Today before the well needed rain, I got the rest of the rafters & ledger up to the back corner.
Really like that. There is never enough storage areas. I have way too much "stuff" my son has too much stuff. We are always thinning it out.
Oh I have STUFF! That's only a 684 sq ft, and the firewood stays outside under much cheaper "roof" although I should be under $6 s/f for this project.
Nothing wrong with some scrounged Engineered ibeams for rafters That’s a nice pole barn, when my deck build is done I’ll be starting one for the tractor.
You'd be surprised, It's similar to pickups. First I had regular cab's, no room for your $hit, then went for a "super cab" on the next 2 go rounds, just not enough room. Then on to a crew cab(s). You still have to move stuff around to make room for a passenger. It must be a personality disorder of some sort.
I agree 100%! That’s why I drive a crew cab also. But I’m a barn virgin and you gotta start somewhere
fuelrod I wish I had the property. By golly I'd be putting up pole barns and sheds everywhere. Nice work there!
Still pecking away at it. Today there was not a cloud in the sky, the sun was on both sides of me with that new shiny galv roof metal. I did spend some time under my newly created shade from time to time.
Yeah, just my luck, it waited until I started doing the metal. I had to get off of it before lunch and hit it again after dinner the way the sun hit's it. It's about dead south facing.
Still pecking away. Got the front wall & widows done, and instead of a long overhang on the end wall to stick "stuff" under, I couldn't help myself and now it's another 10'6" wide room.
