Mankind has moved from, we kill we eat, to we build, we fill it, we build addition, we fill it, we..........
Mikie's on barnage #2 already so he already did additions, or just said the heck with it

Thank you guys for all the great comments!
The Amish crew worked 13 hours today. AMAZING work ethic and commitment to the job. SOOO easy to work with. Here was 7pm.

I got a hunch you're gonna like the new digs...

That's a good looking space. I'd like to be moving all my tools in there.

Looks good!
Going through the build pics, I see no diagonal bracing, what's up with that?

In the dozen pole barns I visited before ordering mine none of the new ones had it. Only a buddy who is a 72year old famer had some in his barns. After I figure out what I am doing it is on my list of improvements. It just makes sense!.

I can get you some pics of how I did mine, especially in the rafters, really stiffens up the structure.
FWIW, my shop won't even creak until the wind hits 40mph...
