Your Tractors house

[VitaBene]

Here is mine. It is a 24X30 Morton building. It is insulated, heated and finished inside with pine. While it has electricity, no plumbing yet.

I know i can make a really nice home out there when my wife throws me out for buying too many toys. Of course, then I will have to build the bigger building that I want!

Well, here's another Morton structure. Well, two of them, actually. The left one is the shop... 42' x 68'. Currently holding 4 tractors, implements, other stuff.

Here's how the poor folk live. Built this in 2001. 28x32 open bay with dirt floor and a hayloft on the second floor. Ell is 10x24. Open to the South and East and surprisingly little rain or snow gets inside.

Hi, PHPaul. Is that an F20 (or maybe an H with the sheet metal set aside)? The old peepers don't see quite as sharp these days, so I can't tell for sure. Is she still on the job? Guess we're supposed to stay on topic, but it's nice to see the vintage red anyways. I've got one that's restored and one begging for some attention.

Hi, Grandad. Close, it's a 1938 F-14. Been several changes since that picture was taken, info and pictures at my website: here.

She still earns her living, mostly hauling trailers. I've got a couple John Deere #52 plows I'm slowly converting to one usable unit.

Thanks for sharing your website. I've read your F14 restoration chronicles and look forward to all the rest as well.

Here's Mine....completed in Sep of 10. 60x60. This is phase one of the building. For the next phase we will add on a 60x40 two story for our living area. The light panels on the side walls under the eaves are great. I'm so glad I went with them. Almost done with the loft that is 8x60. Great for storing all the "other stuff"

Greg,

Nice shop. Looks HUGE!!!!

I like the roof that you put over your doors. I'm thinking of doing this to my roll up door and was wondering how far you went out from the building? Id it affective at cuttind down on the amount of water that gets to the bottom of the door?

Thanks,
Eddie

My tractor house is 24X36 with 10' ceiling, there are a few other things that live in there with it. I see now that I don't have any pictures taken to show the outside of it. The one I attached was the day I was thinning the trees a little bit and the load of crushed rock I had ordered showed up earlier than expected. A good day to own a tractor all around:thumbsup:

Eddie, Thanks!

I believe they project 36 inches but I'll check for sure tomorrow. The "eye brows" as they call them are fantastic for doing just what you said, keeping the water from the doors. Our goal since we moved to the farm was to have a 60x100 building. Don't know why we got set on that size but this is phase one, the 60x60 shop. It's so great to be able to park the equipment inside and be able to work on it. Under the loft will be for the tools and work benches. The side closest to the doors will be for metal working and the other will be for wood working. I also plumbed the shop for an office with a full bath. I do have a man door on the back side and had an eye brow put over it also.

The previous owner of my property built himself a fancy RV shed. Metal frame, *thick* concrete slab, one side is metal, other side is open, back side is mostly blocked by a Tuff Shed and the front has a commercial overhead door. Can you say overkill? But I love it!:thumbsup:

It's big enough to store all my toys: the JD tractor (big Green, which is not in the pic), the Yanmar (little red), mower, trailers, attachments, my fuel stand, etc.

Eddie, The eye brows do project out 36" from the wall.

I for got to put a side view pic on the last post.

Wow thats a beauty. I wanted to do brick on mine, just wasn't confident in my ability.
