I was doing a good deed this weekend and admit it looks ultra sketchy - which it was...

At least it appears to be a metal building so there's not a huge amount of weight there, just a lot of surface area to catch the wind.

Other then permits, signs, flags, & escort, it looks good to me.

Fine job.

Pull it with the tractor and it's agricultural so none of that is needed, right? I see guys around here pulling heavy equipment on trailers behind tractors in the spring to side step the frost laws.

As long as you have your orange triangle on the back, you're good.

Good job. How did you get it up there? And is it sitting on the rails?

Yes - on the pipe top of the trailer. Could not find a deckover and they were in a hurry... Jacks and cribbing used to elevate it. Here's a link to a complete set of pictures in an independent thread. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/projects/379880-shed-move-tractor-redneck-engineering.html

Just so happens to be private roads, so we avoided the moving violation concerns... Had to watch out for a few drivers who were none too impressed, but it was not very far down the road.

This thread is mostly about the towed load....... we could probably have another thread dedicated to just the stupidity of other on-road drivers around large loads....

Was watching Highway Thru **** last night..... there's (at least) one big snow-shed on the Kok where a truck with a tall-load HAS TO BE in the left lane - you only have to see it once to understand why. Even with escort trucks, some yoyo in a pu still had to try and squeeze by as a tractor trailer grossing 90 tons HAS TO move left. Snow and ice on-road too, of course.

Rgds, D.

Ropes, ratchets....I don't need no stinking hold down. We got Joey. Here hold Joey's beer...

Nah nah, they're moving Joey...the mattress is just to make him comfortable.

Love private roads & anything where the government isn't involved.

As said, Good job.

Hadn't thought of that but you're right. Maybe the're moving both Joey and the mattress.

Re carrying that shed, there was a similar photo on here long ago of a member who drove into his dirt-floor shed, lifted it somehow, and drove it down the road to the neighbor's.

I think Thingy was that poster's name. Everything he wrote was entertaining.
