Evening guys, I hope all is well.
Dave I would offer my dump trailer to move your shed but it is only a 6'x10' bed.
If you call a shed company some will come move it for you for a fee.
They have special trailers.

Thanks Andy

I'm waiting on just such a call-back.

The real fun begins when I have to drag the shed up the ledge strewn lawn to the top.

At least I have a rope ratchet puller its got a 23 foot reach and rated for 1100 pounds.

Evening, all. Got some supplies for next weekend's event and got behind the shop graded out sorta ok not great but passable. Then on my next sunny day I'll finish up painting the shop then work on getting water back to the farmhouse so there's a bathroom available.

Andy

I have the trees but not the ****** block and all that cable.

Have been thinking that would be the backup plan.

Hi everyone!

The boom truck from the drywall supply has 1200# capacity at 100' reach.
With the wireless joysticks the driver can pick it over your house and walk around back to place it.

well, just an idea....

That would work Aaron.

Save me the hassle of the low clearance underpass too.
