Do You Have a Tractor Shed/Barn?

[Runner]

My main building is a 32 x 36 Perka building which is an insulated/heated shop with 10 x 10 doors on the north and south ends (drive through). It has a 36 x 48 addition on the south end with two 10 x 20 doors which is unheated dry storage for tractor, mowers, truck, trailers, etc. Secondary storage is an 18 x 24 pole barn for tractor attachments, other storage.

This is my 24x36 two story barn in 2010 (built in 2000) then full in 2024 and I have been cleaning out - gave away 2 radial arm saws, sold 60" snowblower, sold the 1864 Cub Cadet Garden tractor.

Was going to put an 8x36 extension on the back but started cleaning out and getting rid of stuff first - then I buy more stuff (mini ex and buckets etc)

In the process of "arranging things" I lose stuff, the idea of pictures as you are rearranging things is great

I can't find things I KNOW are there - somewhere.

Started out with a 20x21 carport that we outgrew. A neighbor had a tree land on his during a hurricane, so we took the uncrushed half and added a 12' lean-to to the smaller one. Had a large 26x50 drive through built a few years ago, all working out well, and all out of tree falling distance!

I envy you people down south that can have a nice simple shelter like that and not have to worry FEET of snow every winter, LOL

I’ve found being able to use a jack very helpful and dirt or gravel is problematic…

Another problem with having a dirt floor....this year for some reason mice have suddenly found my barn and decided my RTV-X1100C cab is a great place to keep making a home.
You can't seal it up like you can with a concrete floor.

This is something I have come to appreciate... A concrete floor and rat guards on the walls. The mice stay outside where the cats can get them

What are rat guards?

What are rat guards?

It's a trim piece that runs along the lower wall to close up the gaps between the wall and the base boards that make the concrete form

I have a steel carport for my small tractor. 20×20 is big enough to store my implements.

I'm pretty happy to have a 12 x 13 x 20 shelter logic tent to keep the seat dry! Rain, snow, and dew are always present in Maine. I can also leave the chainsaw on the tractor with no fear of rusting out the muffler.
I set it up on 6 x 6's and built a back wall to add weight, and the wall allows for gear and supply storage. It is also set into a pocket in the trees on a gravel base to keep the high winds from moving it.

No permit, no Codes, no Taxes either.

That sounds good but my shelter logic, same size, the fabric lasted exactly 19 months before it UV shredded, never again. Building new with metal.
