North endwall. The guys are here installing the overhead doors ... unfortunately they won't be done today. I did manage to get the mower deck for B2910 moved in. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

LOL !!! ...... thanks Ron.

I'm pretty happy with it so far ..... although I wish I had spec'd the ridgevent in the trim color .... as I recall I don't think I was given the choice ... but that might just be bad memory.

I'm hoping to reroof the house with the same color metal that we used on the barn .... maybe even stain the siding with the same color.

I think a new name for PineRidge may be in order....Spudman?

Hey the building is looking great! If you need some tractor work this weekend I am available But I do not see me getting the gravel in allot of places you need it. But hey I got heat and I am do for some good seat time. No mud though I just got her all cleaned up! I hate getting my tractor dirty??? So how much sense does that make? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

A little closer view.

The overhead door guys came to install the doors today .... they are having a bit of trouble - nobody told them that the building had dutch corners (not enough door seal) ... or that the trusses are on 8' centers, placed in the center of the doors (no place to drop angle from to support the tracks) ... plus they forgot the pipes the springs mount on.

Insipte of all that they did get the wall tracks up and put the panels for two of the doors in place. The'll be back to finish it on Thursday.

Spudman?????

Randy I was over at John's just about a week ago straightening out sheet metal that he had ripped off the edge of the sliding door opening with his TN while exiting his pole barn. That makes crash the right guy to move your gravel for you if you want it broke in early on. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Thanks John.

First thing I got to do is get the building warmed up enough inside so that the snow on the floor will melt so that I can pick up any nails that were dropped. There's some nice ones lying in there now - at least 6 inches long. Know anyone local that has a torpedo heater ?

I don't think mud would really be a problem at this point - the only type of mud we have right now is pretty much the solid kind. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I know whatcha mean about getting them dirty ....... I finally just threw in the towel on mine and decided that if it got dirty so be it ..... I don't think I've cleaned it for at least 4 months. Of course had I gotten this thing put up earlier I could be in there polishing it right now.

Hmmmm ..... I think that door of his is way bigger than any I have.

That reminds me .... I think I better call the insurance company today and get it added to my homeowners policy.
