Definitely keep us up to date.
The carriage doors are more about budget and room for the lift as they don't interfere overhead. They'll be made out of some of the oak that was inside the barn.

So I stood up the 6x6's for the larger side of the barn yesterday.





And interconnected them this morning in the rain. Should be solid enough until I can get the roof on.



This week. I'll make sure the frame is solid then start putting a roof on her.

Noboday Care about your garage Zman.... Just Kidding!

What an awesome project I love the use of the 6x6's and the idea to keep and reclaim the wood as siding. 6.5 acres is a nice spread my friend.


Oh and I've got a couple Black snakes and one king snake on my property and it's only .5 acres. I hate them and am panic stricken by them.

Probably 2 ft. and there are pillars under where the lift columns go.

Nobody but me. And this is the barn, the garages are under the house.

Sorry I'm not familiar with this "barn" word you speak of. I pay HOA dues so I'm very sheltered.

Got a piece of a wall framed, hoping to really get on it Thursday afternoon and get a few more and some roof joists...

Thanks man, I've got a big pile of wood sitting there that I haven't been able to do anything with for a week, either weather or work. Hopefully the next couple of days I'll get an afternoon free.

This is like a HAMB garage thread, good to see it! The barn is coming along nicely, Zman.

What's the deal with that little attached "shed" and why did you leave it up and pour beside it, rather than dismantle and extend the slab? Is this so you don't need to permit stuff?

Like the work, can't wait to see more progress.

That section will be phase two, there are probably 6 motorcycles and some equipment stored in that shed while I do this part. I probably should have done it all in one fell swoop. Permits were initially a worry.

Getting ready to start the roof on this section. Then I can take down what's left of the old barn and do that section as well.

Lol, I have been trying to drive it a couple times a week. Drove it to coffee at Cup of Joe this morning. Though it's a tough choice these days, this one is a little faster...
