I did the PVC pipes myself just last year to move my 10x12. Worked great. just used 4 pipes and pushed it. when one came out the back we moved it to the front. Only broke one, and that was because I hit a rock.

When I went to build mine, they said I needed a engineer to review and stamp the plans. So I ask why and they told me up until not to long ago they didn't have set rules for pole barns. And I quote 'we pretty much inspected them like we would a deck. Until someones building fell down and we were...

Yea, I worked just a few buildings down from them and did some business with them. Nice guys, they will let you walk around their back room and look at all the stuff. They have everything from, Crates FULL of springs, shocks, rims, brakes, to full cars. And last time I was in there they had a...

I am in NC and the coldest it gets here is about ~low 20s in the winter mornings and we have had no...

Hey, don't post much just lurk, but I had to chime in on this one. I manage a carquest and we sell the hell out of those things. We have the little display on the counter and as soon as people try it they have to have it. I have both sets, and they work great!
