Thread: Shed remodel, more room

Tweet

Thanks for the compliments on the shop guys, I used to be an old hog building. We got it for free, moved it ourselves and raised it 8 feet and added the lean too on both sides. Just to clarify any thinking, if I had to do it all over again I would have built a new one instead. But were here now
I got another 8 ft added onto the I beam today to make it 40 ft.I used what was left of the donor beam to keep everything straight and in check while I spliced it. We also got the electrical moved and the wall stripped of all it's flare. Now it's time to get the other side ready for the beam so I may have to kill the heat in the shed for awhile. As of right now I'm not quite sure how to raise up the beam to its position. My best plan so far it to use 2 skidloaders with the pallet forks turned upside down and set the beam on them to lift it up.
