If you are only going to move it about 100', I'd just get a bunch of wood fence posts, jack up the end that is closest to the direction that you are going to go, slide posts under the sills & push from the other end w/loader bucket. It'll roll on the posts. You'll have to keep moving posts from back to front as you move it, so you'll want to have a lot of them & all the helpers you can con into coming over. I'd plan to have 8 to 10 under each side at the same time-try to keep them not more than 3' from each other. You can use 4" or 6" well pipe, if you have some available, it works great. We've moved several grain bins this way, but they've got have good sills, and you might have to brace the inside. You can even get them to turn at least a quarter of a turn, if you angle the posts. Helps if the ground is leveled before you start. Above all, be careful. Better to have a broken building to fix than a broken bone. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)
