For a MF35... Just the MF35 (oh, and the bush hog too, I suppose)... 12x20 big enough? |

| | Fella once told me that you could roof over your entire property and not have enough. Push your limits as far as you can. Never heard a fella say, "Dang, my stuff is too dry. Wish I had built this smaller..." My 10x12 is now 16x16. Aaron |

| Yep, build it twice as big as you think. At least setit up so it can be added onto. I did building inspections for 20+ years, and never saw one built that was big enough. Includijg outbuildings, garages, Supercenters, schools... |

| And you have nothing else that you would ever want to put inside under cover? When sizing a shed, put everthing that you want to put in it togeather in one spot. Now take that size and double it. Next build in a place that can be added on 3 times. And your still out of room in 2 years. ;-) |

| Build it as wide as you can afford. You can always add to the length later. For instance, 36 wide x 24, then add another 24 or 36 to the length later. |

| I was told way back when, in buying a boat, camper, trailer or building a shed-go bigger than you think you will need. A 12 x 20 sounds big now, but by the time you get all the other "stuff" you will get its going to get real small real quick. |

| 12x20 sounds a bit on the small side. At least double the smallest dimension. My garage is 24x36 and it's just barely deep enough, an extra 4' of room would be (almost) perfect. |

| After my divorce and move left me pennyless and p=--yless I bought an old barn, tore it down and moved to my new location. It started out as a pole barn and now is enclosed with cement floor. I need to put leantoos around to shelter all the junk!! |
