Hello all! Well, we are settling into our new home, and I am beginning to see how much (or how little) money we have left to play with. I have posted a few times, and have mentioned building a pole barn, have asked sizes or recommendations, etc. I would like to do most of the work myself, with the help of some friends... But lately, I have been thinking of doing this in stages. For example - This year my goal would be to get posts in the ground, trusses up, and roof skinned... Would there be any issues to doing this? I figure this would allow me to slowly work on closing in the structure as I get more money to do so. But, having poles up with a roof will also allow me to keep the tractors under some type of cover until it is fully completed.
I am looking at putting up something that is 32X56X12, which would allow for post spacing on 8' centers. At this point I am still unsure of truss spacing. Being in MN, we do get quite the snow loads here sometimes. Also, I wouldn't be getting concrete in it for some time. Any opinions are appreciated.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
