We've been working on this barn and 10 acres for almost a year. Had what seems like 100's of trees to clear, grape vines, brush.
The entire east side of barn had been damaged by powerpost beatles. 14 ft of the North east side of barn had no support at all.
It's been a long process, jacking up the east side, making a support beam out of 2x6 oak lumber from barn. Temperalilly support beam and using 4x4's in concrete to support wall.
Now we are cutting off about 2 ft of the 2x6 rafters, scabbing on new 2x6's, replacing some purlins with used 2x6 5/4 treated decking, using 5/4 for facia. Reusing 36 inch rusty sheet metal for roofing.
We got 18 feet done and today got stopped by rain.
Slow process for a guy pushing 70 and another 75 year old cancer survivor who is the owner and loves horses.
The horse stables are going to be on the side we are working on. Need to get the roof fixed and east side closed in by winter.
Pictures don't show the extent of what we've done all on a shoestring budget.
