I forgot to post this earlier, however this is what happens quickly here if you don't obey the burn laws. This fire was on the highest ridge directly across in this picture, however it was East of our house.

I think I am going to video the build also and do a time lapse. Never done that before so I will research what is involved.

I wish I had done that with mine. At least I have my build thread here, going on two years now worth of building and getting close on mine. The part the contractors did was pretty fast, my parts, which was everything aside from erecting the pole barn shell, has taken MUCH longer haha!

We live on a small rural road, not a lot of room to maneuver and the first truck got stuck pretty quickly. No big deal though, they used the machine to pull him out and continue to unload all the materials.

The entire building except the garage doors is on this truck 40'x60'.

I have been stressed over how they were getting all the materials up to the site. We are over a quarter of a mile from the road and the driveway is pretty steep. We had a few things to deal with like the moffett not performing as it should, but in the end all the material made it up to the building site safely.

These guys are awesome. As soon as they got out of the truck they started laying out the building for the poles, laser level and squaring up the building. I am impressed. In no time they were done drilling the holes and setting the posts.
