Looks great so far Giz...That thing will be built in no time!

Thanks Ken. They tell me by Friday evening I can move in. We'll see.
Four of the 17 holes have at least 2 ft of water in them. I really thought there would be more holes with water. It was in the mid to high 90's today and I about died out there. Good thing I didn't have to do any real work.

I like how the guy in the second picture uses a pipe clamp clamped to the post so he can man handle it easier.

Two bags of Sakrete in each hole, then one biscuit of concrete 6" by 18" then the Perma column.

I had heard of the Perma column, but never seen one, it reminded me to look into them. thanks. Nice building btw.

Looking good! They do go up fast, but only if you've done it a few hundred times. I'd hate to figure out how to do this on my own. I did a tiny 6 x 8 shed and it about wooped me (was working on my own).

This heat is miserable.

They look OK when the area is clear, small when the poles go in. OK once the frame is done, and then small again after you've had it for a while and it fills with stuff. You can't really win, but the only way to loose is not have the building.

Midday Day 4
Slow going now with all the trim work. I was glad to see the splash board go up. I had them make it wider on the plans a few weeks ago as to keep the metal a little further from the ground. I would rather see more of the splash board than look at rust a few years down the road.

End of Day 4.
Got done at 10:30 last night.....I'm shot!. It has been nothing short of a marathon around here for the last 4 days.
