    Default Stable For My Pony

    Well, I have been dreaming of the day that I can have a nice place to store my vehicles and be able to not work off of a dirt driveway. I got my permit to start work on my 30x48x12 pole barn, it will have 3 12x10 rollup doors and later a 4 post lift. IU got a couple loads of dirt , because originally I was going to build a 30x30 a couple years ago. Got most of my lumber, waiting on trusses. Project will most likely take me 3 months or so, because of my work schedule, but I am happier than a pig in poo to get this project started.





    Got the dirt in



    Knocked it down a little and measured where to drill the holes for the posts.

    It's good to see your hate towards Ford.


    Can't wait to see some updates once you really start this build.

    Nice man. What do you estimate will be the total cost of this project?

    just a fyi.. but when your ready for the lift..how far from atlanta are you? major suppplier is located there and often has killer deal on lifts that may have mismatched paint or other minor cosmetic flaws.. also killer deals on all their other new lifts.. plus the drive saves a ton on shipping.. thats what im doin .. alrady went to check them out..

    I am about 5 hours away from Atlanta. I guess it would depend on the deal. I am gonna get a 10k 4 post lift. I am gonna dig out my slab where the lift is gonna go. probably will be a year before I buy one.

    Small update, busted some major ass this weekend, got the roof put on. It is starting to get pretty warm down this way, got the temp in the shade at ~90 We should be pooring the slab in a couple of weeks when I have the cash to do it.



    Yes that is an 8 foot ladder with some space above 12 foot sides!!
