 Pole Barn Advice

Nail- Do you have a restricted budget or open? I had a 30 x60 with 10' side wall built to house a TC33, implements, 16' pontoon boat, 14' sailboat(both on trailers), addtiional yard equipment- two riders, small snowblower, tillers etc. with a bay for my truck and use as 'mechanical' work and a woodshop area. I wish I had gone 12' walls-sure the TC/ROPS goes in okay thru the 10' slider but w/the garage door bays a bit tight in clearing the ROPS and truck w/cap. (Think I should have gone to 40 wide now that the place is nearing capacity..Wink yeah rightha ha amzing what accumalates). I would suggest layout in scale your planned barn and cut out little cardboard scale 'markers' of your equipment and place them how you plan on stowing everything and leave a bit of room to access and manueverSo Sad one thing i didn't do too well (got more implements) plus acct for height. As to the ground slope- how much area around the site do you have available? if a reasonable amount 20 ft or so, have a bulldozer reduce height in high spot and push to lower area but leave your 'floor grade' of barn high, compact site or let settle (depending on soil conditions). I had this done on my site. This is just my .00003 cents worth. Good Luck
