Good luck we are both lucky wives handle it , and they don't go crazy amazing job you both are taking on

How strong is it compared to a regular stick built home

Nice i Should be getting one Thursday, They Ran my credit today

Beats the way a 1950's tractor does for sure.

Just got my L2502 a few days ago.

I know that slopes don’t show well on video, but looking at the grade on the end of the building looks really steep. If so, you will save yourself some major headaches by bringing in more fill dirt to soften the slope. I’m in complete agreement that the cost of these barns have gotten so expensive.

Building of the building is called labor.

$15k for the concrete was a bargain! My 30'x40' pad, at 4" cost me $12.5k, and that was the least expensive quote I got. The shop looks great!

Nice. Wish I had the power for a hole auger. Hope you Irish spring works!

They love apples 🍎.

Good morning Tod. You do have plenty of space for a lot of fruit trees. The front mount hydraulic auger is awesome. Hopefully the Irish spring soap works. I make wire cages around mine and when the trees get bigger I remove them. Have a great day!

I wound up buying some 14g, 5ft tall fencing and cut it to 10ft lengths and made some hoop cages for mine. Apples and plums and mayhaws. Curious to see how the soap works.

Thanks for the information good video

It's actually quite nice to see someone's first time running one of these types of machines. It shows some of the learning curve. Great job.

I wished I was in my 60’s 😂

Beautiful shop !!! great video

I have a pretty powerful trimmer that I put an 80 tooth carbide tip brush blade on and it does an amazing job brush like that. I just love it. Pulling the bigger ones out is a good idea so they don’t grow back. Your going to have a great view!

Clearing the trees and brush is a lot of work but once it's opened up it will be quite the view. I have never used a pond dye for my pond. I am looking forward to seeing what you go with. Have a great week Tod!

One tree at a time in one section at a time, before you know it Wow what a view!

Love the sweat equity!

What do you think this would cost in coulterville, ca? I’m sitting on 2 acres I’m itching to build on.

Smile you have a new barn

Thank you Exactly what I was looking for.

I was actually surprised to hear you keep saying how much you hated doing the greasing! For others watching - you want to do the loader grease fittings every 10 hours of use and the ones on the tractor are only once every 50 hrs.

Thanks for sharing. The wife and I want to do something similar. Looks great

Proper maintenance is definitely going to extend the life of your tractor. Thanks for sharing Tod!

Excellent Video! Appreciate this so much since I am looking for a property and knowing the cost of the pole barn build is very helpful. I noticed you said you got the building from Hopkinsville, KY. I looked at a house in Crofton which is very close to there.

Your right Tod, they are huge investments and they do need to be maintained so that they last. Have a good one!

Proper maintenance is so important! I see way to many people on CZcams throw away manuals and assemble instructions. I never do. I just finished a video about maintenance on some of my equipment talking about just that. Well done!!

I believe you have 2 lube points on the front axle pivot. You did the rear.

I'm about to buy a kabota. I don't know anything about tractors. I'm curious if it's ok to have the cylinders extended while pushing down.

Thank you for making this video. It helped me understand better how these controls work!

I built a similar building only 12 foot walls +2, 12 x 16 lean to on both sides my cost including land work Garage Doors concrete electric was about $90,000 in Jefferson County

Anyone built one of these with full brick veneer? I live in a neighborhood with HOA. Wondering if this would be a better option than stick and brick?

You got a lot of square footage and value for your money even though costs to build have gone through the roof. I would assume you live somewhere without much red tape involved in building like i do. I'm currently building a 40x80x16 with a 10x80 porch and 20x40 apron/approach. My concrete is being poured tomorrow, 6 inches everywhere at a cost of 34k, which is pretty painful but actually quite a good deal here. The building itself was 70k, but that includes premium black windows and doors ($4k more than white) and the 24x40 loft. The single 14x14 black commercial insulated door with windows and heavy duty opener is 7k itself. Excavation was 13k. I pre-plumbed it myself for a 12x16 bathroom over the weekend for under $600. The costs just keep adding up. It's going to be 26k to have the builder insulate and put metal walls in the 56x40 shop section. Ill probably have at least 5k in having an electrician wire the whole thing. Then, i can get to finishing all 1840 sq ft of living space myself. Once I get to the bathroom ill have to have a 15-20k septic installed. Im going to be eating ramen noodles for the next 10 years to pay for it, but it should be worth it.

Got a link to part for purchase?

Great video. Thanks for sharing costs for us preparing to build. Peace

She's got the numbers!

Is there any way I can get in contact with you? Private message or something? I have a lot of questions please!!

I live in Minnesota and planning on building next year. Haven’t gotten an estimate for the steel yet but a GC said to me concrete with frost fooding for a 40x60 will be around 30k…. I was shocked! I’m gonna try to do the foundation myself if possible to save at least 50% on that. I think too something like this shouldn’t be more than 50k to just putting it up, no offense to construction workers, i appreciate hard labor.

Does that cost include the interior of the house?

This is way better than on the back of the tractor.

We are looking at that same mower. Does the easy ride suspension make a difference? We are pricing that exact building. Same layout and all. Thank you for your time.

I keep checking at the Dollar General for buildings and concrete but those suckers just not cooperting yet

Happy birthday Tod! The grill looks great and it's always nice when it's an easy installation.

Good afternoon Tod. Wise decision to get a grill guard. There is so much expensive stuff up front on these tractors that absolutely need to be protected

Wow yeah that is a nice farkle for your tractor Tod! Thanks for sharing this. Have a great week!

Good morning Tod, Happy Birthday! Very nice grill guard. I built one for our B2601. It has saved me money in repairs. Have a great week, Ben 👋😎👍🍻

Nice! Grill guard is such a good idea. I haven’t been able to find one any better than what’s on there for my BX.
