Big Red Barn

The Big Red Barn nears completion. 
 
 
 
 
 
This was how it looked on Monday afternoon.
 

 
Since this is a metal barn, they put it together in panels with a foil type insulation and when they screw in the panel, it secures the insulation as well.  This process should reflect a great deal of heat in these Houston summers.
 

 
Today, they've nearly got it finished.  The roof was added.
 
 
They removed the post that was in the way and added this header with support brackets.  Now we should have no problem backing the truck straight in.

 
They added the large over head door and the small entry door.
They would have finished it but the supplier sent the other two doors in the wrong size.
As soon as it can be secured, we will begin moving items into the barn and out of our over crowed garage.

 
Eventually we will add a faux barn door on the front to give it that final old barn feel.
 
 
But for now, I think it is very cute.  And I am happy Uriah will finally have the wood working space he has always wanted.
