Started a new project today. Here are two pics of the material I picked up. Care to speculate as to what this is for? More pics and info as project progresses. Dave

A rack to stack two tractors above two others... or maybe three. I've thought of something like that, so that's my best guess. Or you could be making a bridge over a moat around your castle garage !

This is what I was up to today. I needed room in the shop for our motorhome and also want to get our little trailer under cover for the winter. I moved the big Dodge out so there is room for the MH but not for the trailer as I wish to have space to work in as well. So I ordered a 12ft.x20ft. portable garage from Western Tarpaulin in Toronto.(better quality and engineering than offshore crap at Lowes or Home Depot. Made to withstand winter weather) This building will store the trailer, several tractors and some attachments; thus freeing up more shop space. Today I put together a base for the garage. Michael; you were close on my next project. The 8x8 PT posts are used guardrail posts I get locally for $5 each. They are around 6ft. long and I hope to build a partial mezzanine in the shop to layer tractors and attachments; using these type posts for the upright supports. When the building arrives in about 2 weeks I will post pics of the assembly. Dave.

Mike, I thought you were an AC man. You don't recognize that?

Dave, what are you going to do to secure this to the ground? I secured mine slightly better than specs of the maker with 18 dog run style rods which go down about 3'. I went down an extra 6" deeper digging a short drain pipe around each rod. I also had 4x4" post laid down which my frame is strapped to.
