How big of a circuit and how far away is the feed? I might know some people who can help you out with it.

Pictures are coming soon....the village approved my zoning variance on Tuesday night, so I dropped my building plans off Wednesday morning. Should hear back first part of next week and then we can start building! Finally feels like a project I've drawn 30 times is ready to become a reality.

Variance meeting is tomorrow, and the barn is going up one way or another after that. The corner of my backyard isn't a right angle, and I was initially following the back property line to locate the structure. The board asked me to reference the other property line which rotates the barn...

Fantastic build, it looks like it'll be a great space. What are your plans for the ceiling? I'm putting scissor trusses up myself, and I've been looking around at different ideas.

I ran into a zoning issue. My yard is big enough for the structure, but apparently my detached garage and above ground pool count as 2 accessory structures, and my village only allows 2. I've been going through the process of asking for a variance, which the final decision will be September...

I have a deposit with one, but I'm delayed waiting for a zoning permit so I'm not sure how our schedules will work out once I'm given approval. I'd be interested in talking to yours though.

Looks really good! Who's doing your concrete?

In Holland, right in the middle of all the road construction. I'm waiting on the village right now for the zoning permit, then I can get the building permit and be ready for the contractor to start.

I took your advice of leaving more room on the left side of the door. Attached is the layout I sent in with my order. I didn't think about leaving the room on the side, I was just thinking of position of the barn in the yard. Offsetting the lean to will put me a little close to the pool, so to...

I do like that idea a lot! The company I'm going through for the barn, DIY Pole Barns, offers just a couple options for truss's and I haven't asked yet about a free span area. The cost to go from 10' tall to 12' wasn't much in the overall scheme of the project. My thinking is that with the 12'...

That's a fantastic point. The building isn't ordered just yet, so I have time to make changes. My initial thought was to try and keep the overhead door and the man door within the first 12' of the lean to, if I wanted to eventually close off the opposite door side of it for cold storage. This...

Ordering the pole barn next week. My plan is a 30X40X12 with scissor truss's, with a 12X24 open lean to off the front. Under the lean to will be the 10X8 overhead door and the 36" man door. I've got the structure, location, and the electrical planned out at this point and feel pretty confident...
