From your post, it sounds to me like you are looking at a metal arch building? If so, I would advise talking with any local people that have one to see how they like it. Mine is a 50X80 from US Buildings. It has straight sides up 5' and then curves. Lots of room, little wasted space. If you put on of these up, YOU NEED VENTILATION!!!!!! Moisture collects on the arches and when the metal warms up it RAINS inside the building. I asked about vents when I bought it, but the salesman wouldn't even give me a price, said theirs were too expensive, buy them from local Menard's, Home Depot, etc. BUT, they tell you to bolt the spacer angle iron on the top of the arch and then you can't put the ventilators on. I have 2 small vents in each end and they aren't enough. Also, awful hard to hang something on the walls. WISH I HAD A POLE BARN!!! I talked to one of their construction supervisors when problems came up erecting it, he said they would have it up in a day and 1/2. Took us 2 weeks with 5 guys working all week. I personally think they are a waste of $$, you are better off with a pole building. You need to run any electric wires in conduit( More expense). I have a 20X14 door in each end and a walk in door, 3 skylights. They insisted on a floating footing, should have put in a regular footing, kinda late now. I would have to think REAL HARD if they gave me another one if I would even take it. I know of one guy with one, he never close the doors because of condensation. Do some more home work before buying one of these buildings. Another thing, you are supposed to be able to pull the arches up with ropes and S hooks. After the first one straightened the S hooks, I made a boom for the loader that would reach high enough and we bolted angle irons to the arches to lift them with. Chris

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: The Saga of Grandpa's Tractor - by The following saga is from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. Someone. The saga starts with the following message: Hey guys I have a decision to make. I know what you all will probably suggest and it will probably agree with me way down inside, but here it is. I have a picture blown up and framed in my "tractor room" of a Farmall M. It was my Grandpa's tractor, of which whom I never got to meet. He froze to death getting this tractor out of the barn to pull a truck out of the ditch before I was born. Anyway my dad and aunt had to sell it at the auction, ... [Read Article]
