"You want guesses? I bet it would hold a small garage...."
Ha! I've been found out. The 6'6" is the distance across the bed of my trailer. Garage is 14' wide. I have it sitting on three of those beams. Beams I've had for 30 years but they've never been outside - zero rot and no major knots or defects. Deflection when I lowered the garage onto them was negligible. I think they will be fine even on rough roads. The other part of it is I don't know how much the garage weighs. I could compute the weight of all the pieces but my hunch is it's about 2+ tons. It sank the trailer springs less than loading my Ford 4000 = 4600 lbs. If folks here thought the beams would support a ton apiece I would be glad. I think they will.

I thought I would check with the experts too - seeing how you you guys are so close at hand. Thanks to all.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
