Put this one up over the weekend. Tried something a little different. I usually build them at home, haul to the club, and then raise them with my tractor. Wasn't sure I'd be able to get into the field so I built this one in pieces. Each wall, the floor, roof, and tower. Even tried to make it lighter by ripping the 2x4's for framing. When I got there it was a little more than I could handle getting the pieces up to the tower and attached (maybe shouldn't have used an 8ft tower), but with some great help from a couple of club members we got it done.

Nice...looks great!

We did ours the same way. Built the floor system, walls and roof separately and dry fit it all at home then disassembled and loaded on trailer....at the property we inserted legs into the elevator brackets and stood floor system with legs up and leveled. Then we lifted one wall at a time with tractor and put it together. Everything went as planned until we got to roof system....getting roof into position was little tricky but it all worked out.
