April 2017 - Last look at the posts....


First row of posts gone!!! Three down, two to go.


You can see the 24' LVLs that were used to support the first row of posts instead of them taking up all of my floor space!


And both pairs of sandwiched 24' LVLs installed.


It definitely changes the feel of the barn. She has come a long way to this point.






And the final posts removed. This felt great and was a major milestone of the construction.




Heres a look at the support brackets that were cut on the waterjet and welded up.




I decided to add these LVLs in last minute. There was a lot of space up there and I didnt think that it would end up being used for anything so I came up with the idea to throw a loft in. This would give me storage to get a lot of unused stuff up off of the precious floor space.
