The last Barn. (maybe)

The clear panels really look good. How tall are they?

I don't remember exactly but around 16".

Good to hear from you Lynn . You are an ambitious old man . Kevin .

Thanks, my kids think I'm a crazy old man for starting this all over. Plan is to build a hay shed this summer and get all the fencing done so I can get some cows.

Wow! Just caught up with you, Lynn. I'm very impressed. My back started aching reading through this thread. Looks great!!! Oh yeah, jealous as well.

With all the metal on it's time for translucent panels. I love these, they let so much light in.

When I built my MiL's, I used the clear polycarbonate 'skylight' panels on the roof, and holy cow did it ever light the place up. Been 15/16yrs now and still holding up with no yellowing or crazing.

Good Friends wife went up on their barn roof to help him with something, stepped on and fell thru a skylight panel to her death. She didn’t know the difference. Sad.

Well at this point the metal is done, translucent panels are done it is time for all the trim work and road base inside. I did put in some drains and power conduit before the road base.

Wow! Don't remember the brand used, but the ones we used held our weight. At least when it was being put on. Weathering may weaken it. Man, that sux.. Did it cross the purlins or go along them?
