Heredity plays a role, my grandmother lived with some kind of aneurysm, my father has one but has kept it monitored in regards to size. I've never had high blood pressure, but one should use family history to advantage when having a physical examination. Our friend knew something was up, I had been in close contact via the phone too. He was a remarkably nice friend, who had 4 young children at the time, his 2nd family as he had kids when he was very young as well. The kids took it real hard as I recall when I visited with his wife. The sad thing was he did not have health insurance, he was in he excavation business all his life, and he should have lived. He was a talented mechanic having to keep all kinds of older equipment operational for his business, and he sure knew his way around old caterpillar equipment.
Pole barn construction is one of the most cost effective types to build, just plan and coordinate carefully. The 18'-0" or 20'-0" walls would allow the higher doorways, but you would have to assess your needs for same, then figure in the additional cost to see if its feasible or even necessary.

It sounds like the original plan was for a fabrication shop, given the hoisting equipment, that is a tall building and certainly going to be costly. At work we have 98,000 sq ft of shop/warehousing, and we have 3 overhead gantrys for steel fabrication, as well as a big one in the newer building where the steel is painted and loaded onto the trucks. I cannot even imagine the cost, they retrofit this place 20 years ago. Sometimes I cannot even imagine the cost just to keep the lights on, and I have seen the gantry repair men working on them at least 3 times this year alone. Incredible shop, but the work has to be steady to keep it rolling.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
