Okay, I've about decided on getting a 30' X 40' steel building put up. I've been quoted $12,150 for it with a 4" slab, overhead door, 1 entry door and a window and 12' tall walls. What is going to go in the building is my Kubota L4200, 2 - Suzuki 250cc ATV's, Yamaha FZR 1000 Motorcycle, 46" Murray riding lawnmower, 1 push lawnmower plus my tools, a small welder and hopefully enough room to have a nice workshop area that I can start adding things like a table saw, drill press, etc. down the road. I'm trying to decide if I want to have another 12 or 16 foot lean too put on the side of it to put my rotary mower, blade, maybe 12' and 16' trailers, etc. out of the worst weather but not take up space inside the building. Maybe even a small square hay baler or swather sometime down the road. I've thought about having the roof on the lean too part shorter than the rest to give it a little more protection. The price for adding the lean too on the side is pretty high compared to the price of the building overall, about $3,000 without cement. This is in West Texas where the sun is the worst part of the weather for equipment sitting outside. We get some rain but overall equipment left outside usually doesn't rust up, but tires and paint get to cracking from the sun fairly quickly. I also thought about putting cement on part of the lean too portion so I could set my quickattach loader on it when I wanted to do some stuff without the loader. I'm trying to make up my mind on this and would appreciate any thoughts or input. Thanks, Nathan

Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
