Not meaning to steal the original posters thread.

That's a great looking building you have there.

I have seen your building layout and it is something all of us would be proud to own.

You and the contributions of others on this site is an invaluable service for those of us following in your footsteps.

It is appreciated. Just wanted you to know that; if it is any consellation.

Thumbs up

Beautiful addition! Keeping the rigs under wraps and out of the weather when not being used will reduce greatly the need for many repairs and make the inspections much easier.

I had to raise my pole shed a foot when we got the Jayco.

Anyone putting one in, make sure the sides are at least 12' high on the sides.

Yeah the cost was split two ways so that helped. It made a $60,000 building much more palatable.

I agree with all, I have been blessed by our Lord and creater!!

Thank you very much

The eave is the gutter side, where the roof meets the walls and the water runs off.
Are you sure you don't mean the gable peak is 20 ft?

Oh, I stand corrected...I was speaking to the gable. Can you tell I am not a construction type person and know almost nothing about it LOL

We had 19 extensions made that slipped into the bottom supports. Me and a buddy jacked up one side , slipped the extensions in place, let it down and did the same on the other side. All were attached with self tapping screws. I think we ended up raising it 18 inches.
