Our Home In The Woods!

just a note, and not sure if you have one or ever have intentions of owning one, but most fifth wheel campers need 12'6" clearance and some a little higher. It wouldn't be bad future proofing to make one of your roll up doors 14' high, so if you ever had a camper and wanted to store or maintain it inside you could. When I built my pole shed I thought there is no way I will ever own a camper, so I put an 11' tall door. Now I own a camper.

I agree. Make one door wider and taller. When is the TBN pool party?

Yea, my largest door is 10' high, then i bought the TT.

Yes, this heat and humidity has me wanting to jump in the pool.

Your shop is going to be huge.

I keep trying to mentally prepare my wife but she still doesn't realize how big it's going to be. I am over the moon excited. Tonight is like Christmas Eve for me! I have been doing landscaping for the front of the house and have been known to jump in the pool all the time!

We currently have a 39' 5th wheel and it would need a 14' door. We could fit it under the lean to but we are considering selling it since we haven't set foot in it in about a year since we got burned out living in it for a year while building the house.

You must have a lot of cash on hand for all those shops or are you a slave to the plastic?.

 

[jack707]

Either you have a lot of cash or everything paid with plastic.

That's going to be a great barn!!! It sounds like you have a great plan and I'm looking forward to following your progress.

That would be kind of personal. Please just enjoy the progress.

Contrary to the national credit card average family debit, I carry a zero balance and have since my first CC at 16.

That's going to be a great barn!!! It sounds like you have a great plan and I'm looking forward to following your progress.

Thanks. They are making great progress and more pics tonight!

That would be kind of personal. Please just enjoy the progress.

Haha. Thanks Kyle. I get asking someone what they paid for something but to insinuate they are a slave to the plastic is almost funny
