Default Re: My New Barn

Thanks all, appreciate it. Its been a lot of work. But I'm happy with how its coming.

And yep, the barn has more windows than the house. But hey, I spend a lot of time out there, and like the light!

Eddie, did the woodwork myself. The barrell ceiling was surprisingly easy to frame. Took plywood ribs and jigsawed them to the curve that fit, and attached them to the joists. Then just shot the beadboard on with 2.5" nails.

And yep, balcony (widows walk we call it up here) is operable, with nice ocean view. As you can see, it's on the project list. Maybe this summer, if I finish the barn.

Barn is 20x36, framed to park a tractor on 2 floors (drive in basement). 10 foot ceilings, with top floor the same size. No wood on exterior - that's all concrete board, Azek, etc. I don't ever want to paint.

Any idea on how I can get the pics to show up as thumbs? Every time I try it I get broken links.

Too many other random attachments to list (or to own, per my gf) and a really bad tool addiction. But at least I haven't bought a dump truck or bulldozer. Yet.
