Well, my pole barn finally got underway. I was originally planning for a 30x40, but now am hoping to go a little bigger. This shows what the spot looked like at 7:30am on Sat and then where it ended up around noon. A guy I worked with brought his tractor over to do this.

I've got about a 40x40 area cleared off right now. I'm planning on cutting down a few of the big trees around the area, and would like to dig out the bank some more so that I could put in a 32x48.


I'm planning on getting some #4 stone brought in once I get the site prepped.
As you can see, I'm just in the beginning stages right now so i'd welcome an input.

Oh definitely not. They just moved on up the hill out of the way for now.

Yeah, that does look interesting. What have you got hiding back there?

just a couple Ford F1s and an S10 chassis. Future projects for the garage.

That must have been an exciting moment to see your spot getting cleared! Good to see some "local" guys building. I live just north of you about 3 miles east of Bedford in Fayetteville.
