In December I thought I would try my hand at Barn building, before this the biggest thing I ever built was a 12x16 shed, this barn is 36x48. Being here in Florida we really didn't need a barn, we have shelters for the horses/cows, so really this was started to give me something to do, that is why it has taking this long to get this far.
Mind you I have never done this before and I did the complete build alone, I had no help, so with that said, I think doing it alone it didn't come out half bad and I didn't hurt my old self once
. I still have the inside to do, I am farther along then the last pic, I just haven't taken new photos yet.
I hope you don't get bored looking at the photos, but what else did you have to do for this 5 minutes of your life
.
Where the barn will go
20 holes for post (yes I did use a power post hole digger to dig them)
All post up
Walls up
Ready for roofing
Roof half done
More or less closed in, time for trim and stain (ok some help, the wife did the stain)
Outside done. Doors were built by me, nothing in this barn was pre-built.
This is the wash rack area for horses, water line.
Storage room started (Tac, feed and so on). Also Electric started, water in.
This room is complete, I just haven't taken photos yet.
Clay down for the floor on one side
When I take some more updated photos, I'll post them.
