Why would I post my minibarn on the site ??, If you've seen one, you've seen them all, right ??

This looks like your normal building under construction

But there is a subtle difference.

Check that only three sides are standing, and the roof has trusses with roof panels, and the floor for the loft.

The trusses were assembled on the ground as four foot panels, lifted into position with my forklift, then the panels were nailed together. I was told by a number of contractors that I couldn't do it this way. Though there is a whole list of reasons that it can go wrong, I factored all of them in, and I did the entire main roof, all 30 feet like this.

 

All that was needed was the lower roof sections, and a two foot strip at the lower edge of the upper roof, and I could start to lay shingles. I had the entire upper roof panels and trusses set, and everything angle braced and secured until disaster struck !! UGH !!!!!!!!
