Shed for New Mule 610?

[Milo]

It looks nice.

...... Wouldn't have hurt to make it a foot wider and a foot or too longer.....

LOL this can be said about almost every out building or garage!

That turned out real nice Terry, especially like the doors, need something like that myself, as I am a fool for new farm toys.

Thanks. Yes, no doubt that applies to almost every building.

The doors were an interesting challenge. The curved top matches the garage doors. I marked out the arch on the wall with string and a pencil before I put it up. Then I stood the door panels in the opening and marked them that way. The insides of the doors are the cutouts from the siding.

I wanted 4" T-111 for the exterior of the doors to match the garage, and that turned out to be a problem. Hardly anyone around here carries the 4" anymore. I finally found one lumber yard that had a stock. The were on a high shelf and they had to take the stack down with the fork lift to pull of my two sheets.

Great looking shed. My friend has a Mule 610 and really enjoys it. Uses it on his mountain property and is as nimble as a mountain goat. (Well not quite!)

Thanks.

We really like the 610, which we call Jenny (a bit misplaced - jennys were actually donkeys, not mules). Our property is pretty hilly. The only flat spots are the parking area in front of the shed and the area were the tractor barn is. We use it a lot, to the foot of the driveway to get the mail is a quarter mile and over 150 below the house, or to the tractor shed and garden 100 yards and also down hill, or just around the neighborhood. It does very well every place we want to go, even in several inches of snow. I keep it in 4wd mainly to avoid problems when I back up a steep bank to turn around where I park at the tractor shed.

We like the open station mostly. I find I can take about 25 degrees with no wind, or higher if windy, below which I switch to my truck to get the mail.

That turned out nice.

As for dealing with the cold wind, have you looked into a windshield? I bought a plastic one four years ago that made a huge difference. Once it warms up, I just unzip it and roll it up to the side and zip tie it to the roll bar. Works great for rainy days too, but without wipers, you have to sort of squint to see through it.

I don't know if this is the same one I had or not, but it gives you a good start to look and see if you want one.

Thanks, Eddie.

We'll have to think about whether we need to solve the problem or just use the truck the fairly few times it's an issue.
