I wish I could show pictures. I have three shops but they certainly didn’t come all at once. My first shop was a little bigger than a one car garage and it swayed in the wind. I could not afford to heat it in weather like this. In 1982 it was replaced with a 30’ by 32’ new tight insulated building. I thought I was in heaven and in a way I was. That shop is now the tractor shop. When I got out of hogs, the century old hog house was sitting there empty. It was insulated so 15 years ago I cleaned it up, closed in a couple of doors, installed a couple of new doors in different locations and screwed used roofing steel over the top of pink board insulation over the old siding and now I had a woodworking shop. The north side and east end are sided with galvanized steel and the west end and south side are white steel but it’s unnoticeable. The ceiling is low at less than 7’ but it works and through the years I have added tools as needed. It’s not fancy but it’s functional. Third shop is the truck shop I made inside the old cattle shed five years ago. I ended up with a 20’ wide by 40k long shop that will hold one semi tractor with plenty of room to work around it. My son has that shop. I have done all of the work on these shops myself except for having help laying the roof steel and putting up the ceiling steel in the truck shop.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership, ... [Read Article]
