HUGE 55'x30'x17' ShelterLogic Shed -COMPLETED! (Almost)

[@Ddeleon58]

Thank you Tim and Family for your channel. I have learned a great deal from you. I have a small place with 20 acres in East Texas. One of the things that I appreciate the most is that you are a believer and that you post bible verses at the end of each episode. As I was watching this episode The verse from II Corinthians 5: 1-2 was extremely relevant for me as my mother passed away this evening. She was 93 years old and taught me to love Jesus. I am sad, but not distraught, I am rejoicing that she is in her eternal house in heaven. God Bless you and your family.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Sorry to hear that. But thrilled that aha was a believer, and that she taught you the same!

[@ripley711]

Hi Tim. I live in CT not far from where the Shelter Logic factory is. Although my tent is considerably smaller than yours at 18W x 24L x 12H the theory and maintenance is still the same. Sunshine and warm weather is your friend when it comes to the install of the covering. During the install of your cover I see heavy cloud cover. I would suggest the next warm day, pull and tighten the roof again, you will be surprised at how you can make it drum tight. Also as winter approaches I use silicone spray on the zippers to stop them, from icing and freezing. Glad you are feeling well and please be careful.

[@frankhartmeyer9841]

Talk about a bunch of great friends you got there for a crew. Great video

[@keithdavis4452]

Great minds and friends working together to solve problems. It is wonderful to have friends to help in times of need. Shop looks wonderful and I am sure through time the tarp will get tighter. Can’t wait to see finished product and what you will store in it. Hope your health is getting better by the minute, hour and day. Keep the faith.

[@multibikermike4681]

When the sun comes out crank those ratchets a few clicks every half hour or so. The tarp should tighten right up. Or throw some heaters inside. The heat will rise and soften more at the highest point than the lower half. You want the top to pull more over the end hoops, the sides look pretty good. Great job Tim, by you and your team!

[@BigbearSM-IL]

Was thinking the same thing. Looked to be a cloudy day.

[@paultribbett7765]

Same with a convertible top on a car warm canvas stretches

[@robertbunch8362]

Christy deserves a big hand for her videography, especially the use of the drone. Very effective use!

[@fondy44]

I kept hoping for a re-cap explaining that a million mistakes had been made and that it would have otherwise gone a lot faster/easier but I guess ultimately, acquiring that much storage demands X-ounces of sweat, with build time being the big variable. In any case, it reminded me of that Garth Brooks song ‘Unanswered Prayers’. Thank you, Lord for not blessing me with that much stuff. LOL

[@darrenburch3326]

Thanks for making some of us feel like we are part of something bigger then ourselves

[@CapeAnnImages]

You could of done is wait for the circus to come to town and hire a few of the elephants, they work for peanuts! Years back I helped a friend rig one up to cover a 45' lobster boat he was rebuilding. We built the frame around the boat and with the tarp folded we lifted it up over the end of the frame the unfurled it length wise one frame at a time. We rented 2 man lifts that worked each side of the boat. the four of us were able to get it done and cinched in about 4 hours, then it was pizza and beer time! Nice work!!! Best Regards, Jay

[@jaywest4102]

I bet the marketing department at Shelter Logic wishes they would have sent a professional crew out to put the barn up.

[@richardf9137]

Shelter logic doesn’t have anybody over there that even knows what’s going on it’s the worst company on the planet!

[@Kcolby47]

Looking good, and I’ll bet no one is happier than you and Christy that it is finished. Looks like a big barn-raising dinner is now in order for all! Now I’m looking forward to seeing how you’ll get everything to fit. 😉 Blessings to you, Christy and the gang!

[@StNixFarms]

Tim if your building is like our greenhouse (26x62) then when the weather cools, the wrinkles will be gone and that top will be as tight as a drum head. In fact when it is raining big drops in winter, it sounds like little drum beats. Great job! Take care of that ticker!

[@Chipgillette]

You wore me out. I was was pulling and tugging all the time I was setting here watching this. I need a nap now. 👮🏻‍♂️👍

Best comment I’ve read in a long time. 👍

[@artszabo1015]

Just think how tired you would be if I wasn't helping you!!

[@johnthorpe1071]

Thanks Christy and Tim! Great friends that you have! Your friend in the yellow shirt slings those big suitcase weights like they are loaves of bread, must be used to slinging feed sacks, knew some boys that would carry a 100#er in each hand!

[@tommyordoyne7461]

The cover will probably soften up and stretch a bit in the summer sun and heat. Have a productive day.

[@bradolsen9981]

I am proud of you Tim you do work well with others

[@daveknowshow]

that was a lot of work. you guys and gals did great!!!

[@richpicone7788]

I absolutely loved this project. AND YES! YOU NEED MORE STUFF!!!

[@jakeschisler7525]

Giant green house! Looks really nice, Tim! It's a always good to have great friends

[@ameyasant5594]

Hi Tim and Christie, I really like your videos. You guys are doing great job. Hey Tim, take care of yourself.

[@tomoaktree4951]

Hi Tim, Great job with the install. The building is looking great! We have a large one at work, maybe 150' x 250' and it's about a decade old! There is no maintenance to it!

[@thewayidoit8895]

Glad to see a positive comment here. I just had a double truss 60 x 150 put up. I'll be all in around $75k for a "tent". A legit building would be around $300k or more. We only need it 20 years or less.

[@chickenman298]

Awesome building Tim an hope you're feeling better

[@ricktanguay2310]

Do a job like this on a hot sunny day and the tarp will stretch a lot easier. Expect it to last about 12 years. At that point you will have some small holes in it and then the tarp will let go one cold winter day with a snow load.

[@TANGO22222222]

What a pain! I would never build one of them. I will stick to a pole shed and i do like my pole shed.

[@peterkober6758]

Tim Christi and Crew always wonder how hard those big canvas building won't up now we know it take a lot of engenewty God Bless All PaK

[@MeAlone44]

I would say some additional loops on the ends, sowed/graphed(preferably on the inside so once your done they are contained in the building) to the canvas would make that easier to stretch. IE, 3 sets of loops on the ends that you could get a tow rope or d ring thru would make that much easier. If they ask for feed back, you should suggest it. otherwise the assembly looked fairly straight forward. It really is amazing what a group of people who don't know any better can get accomplished :)

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Yes, some loops or rings would have been very helpful.

[@richardf9137]

The tent is made out of heavy duty Vinyl there’s no stretch to it.

[@d.a.ballou9740]

Great job done by everyone.

[@timraber6575]

Great team work Tim. Hopefully you’ll cook a big batch of cheeseburgers for the crew to celebrate the first piece of equipment moved into the building. ShelterLogic probably did understand that amateurs put up some of these buildings. I’m kind of surprised that a company rep didn’t show up just to give some guidance. Once again, you have great neighbors and friends.......

[@johnmedlin5894]

Nice job Time and crew, it looks amazing.

[@ExploringCabinsandMines]

ours wraps around each end hoop then we use clamps and come alongs on the inside of the building to pull tight, hint always do your research before you start your project.

[@curtwhite876]

That looked like a really long day. And the last thing you folks need is more stuff. I look forward to seeing the pallet racking go in and see everything find a place.

[@brandongustafson7497]

Well I wish you luck with this shelter and I hope it holds up well!!

[@ProjectsWithPat]

I liked the outro. Not the normal, it’s a great view/ idea

[@wendyandjodymaillet7503]

Awesome job y’all! The new building looks great!

[@steventhomson2042]

Enjoyed the whole series on the Shelterlogic shed. Teamwork makes the dream work!!!!!! Great video!

[@hoyks1]

You might have also tried a yard blower on the inside. The sail area would allow it to lift and float a bit, probably the same effect as using the roller, just with less effort.

[@TallTexasGMan]

I found it fairly easy to put the roof tarp on in summer. Replacing in winter though a real challenge on a 10 x 12. I ended up using a buddy heater inside and warming it up. The tarp allowed enough stretch to make it possible. A couple diesel heaters inside yours would have made a world of difference.

[@jamesdiehl8690]

There's one of those canvas buildings, but a different shape a few blocks away from me. The district has used it for years for their snow plows, dumptrucks and sand/salt storage for quite a while.

[@ronalddean4834]

Beautiful job but if I get one I will have it professionally installed. I can't see me doing what you were doing. Christy is getting good with the drone. I'm happy for you getting your building done. Thanks for sharing

[@GriffithsFfestiniog]

Great team work must be fantastic to have such good neighbours, like the space and waiting to see the new stuff that is going to fill it hey Christie?

[@tinachambers4887]

Well done crew ya did it yeah♡ have a day love from TEXAS

[@merrymanrc]

I am glad the wind is not blowing it would be a lot harder to put that cover on

[@martinlandry1975]

Hope we will see how you manage the inside to be able to put you implements/attachements in

[@rfb7117]

WOW.....great friends, great job!!! Still have not been able to fine the fork basket from Uline or anybody else. Thanks, Bob

You might want to search for "Man Basket". They come in a variety of sizes and meet OSHA requirements for safety. Some of the smaller ones are very affordable and don't take up much space. You occasionally see them on Craigslist.

[@rfb7117]

thanks.......

Hey Tim 🇺🇲🚜the building looks great and so many friends helping with this great vlog I really enjoyed watching this Vlog 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

I also wanted to check on you and I hope you are feeling better because everyone loves tractor time with Tim 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲💯💯💯

[@ATR-42]

this was a great project to share, enjoyed this mini-series!!

[@TerraFirmaX]

When the tarp finally went on my Shelter Logic, I had Corrugated metal roof panels made to length. Now it looks like a quonset hut

[@BennyViola]

WOW Tim, I think we all felt your pain with this build. This last video made me question is it really worth it? I'm sure you will benefit form additional storage but, do you think it will be worth the struggle? Great series and God bless my friend.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Oh yea. It hasn’t taken too long. Difficulty along the way, but not many hours invested overall. We really need the storage. Hate to see so much stuff sitting outside!

[@ritchiechristopher5603]

may be consider 8x4 sterling boards around the base to save the inevitable implement tear !!!!

[@beeroquoisnation]

Thanks. Looks great Sir. I have been entertaining purchasing an arch truss fabric structure like this. I am giving more thought to the single pole. They are definitely less expensive. I am sure they are structurally integrous as well.

[@greggo502]

Great video! I installed a Hoop 20x30 shelter( not shelter logic). by my self and they are a bear. I spiked it down with 3' rebar stakes,36 in total. What I did to get the hoop bars up was to duck tape 2 pieces of long PVC to the top of the hoop Then tape a 3rd piece of PVC to the other side of the hoop As I pulled the hoop with the 3rd PVC the 2 others dragged in the ground till they got straight where I wanted them. I then locked the 3rd PVC in the ground What I did to get the top tarp up and over was to connect a 20' piece of pipe to the tarp that starts off I connected that pipe to the tarp.I then connected 3 ropes to the pipe I then tossed the ropes over the structure I then connected the ropes to my zero turn mower SLOWLY I moved forward, It went up pretty easy after that. The biggest problem I had was evening out the end panels. I stretched them to tight with the cheesy rope that came with it and the zipper got misaligned I 86ed the rope and used heavy duty cable/zip ties to adjust the end panels in and out Came out fine The directions were terrible Hope my ideas helps someone

[@johnlucs1121]

Guess you will be trenching an electrical line to the new shelter for a string light to run along the top for illumination at night??

[@clneideigh]

You will be able to fill that building quick!

[@bobbennett3153]

Great job guys but I would consider using some flat mule cord every 16 in along the top under the tarp from the top to the sidewall curve to help stop the stress when the tarp hits the vinyl also consider using another large tarp over that one too reduce sun damage and splitting as of like using a fly over a tent 25 years trial and error life's lessons

[@jasone9]

I think for 6 people who had never put one of these things up you all did a real good job. Not that it matters now, but I was just wondering if a couple large torpedo heaters in there with it all closed up would have helped balloon that thing up enough to make it stretch easier over the ends. I'm guessing you wont be going back out to try it over again.

[@shanesherwood343]

Well I just ordered my own shelter logic building to cover up my new 3033r and got my ttwt discount

[@norton2742]

I like it! It seems very practical.

[@ptek1185]

Nice job by your crew. Perseverance pays off. Is the shed full yet?

[@chrisnash2154]

Love the shed and is definitely something I’m going to consider for hay storage. Going to show this to some friends who need cover for their RV. What drone are you using?

[@number6990]

Are you planning on installing electric service (lighting, etc.?). Interested to see how you would do that in a structure like this one.

[@richardf9137]

Wait till the black mold sets in!

[@plainwornout3964]

2 or 3 people inside with leaf blowers would probably have helped move the tarp. Pole barn all day long.

[@Studio23Media]

Awesome job to Christy on running the camera and the drone at the same time, getting the great shots. Does Christy still edit the videos too? Great work!

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Yes I still edit the video -thanks for your kind words (Christy).

[@VideosfromNH]

I'm sure next spring/summer you'll be able to tighten it up more as the temperature goes up. Then winter next year the tarp will be super tight.

[@ilmo2313]

The Quonset type ShelterLogic looks good. You have lots of good help with equipment. Christy is getting good with the drone. Can she land the drone on your John Deere cap?.................WHILE you're wearing it?????

[@bullrun1]

I commend you for your patience - by now it would have been in a pile and I’d have told them to come and get it - LOL 😂

[@cwolf8841]

What can you do once its up? Can you spray the outside with aluminum paint? Can you spray insulate the inside?

[@BradMyers]

Looks like you have a lot of cheeseburgers to buy for a great work crew.

[@johnmcadams4738]

Hey Tim, Glad to see your doing well. I really appreciate the info. you provide fellas (and ladies too) like myself. I'm about to purchase a 1025 w/ loader and I would really like before I make my final decision ( MSL or the NSL) to see your lifting capabilities test between the two. Do you know when you will be posting that video? I had intended to purchase the week of October 12- 16 but I would really like to see your test before making that decision. Thanks Tim and blessings to you and the family.

Do you think the frame could handle mounting conduit and boxes for getting power out there?

[@robertmccall8666]

My neighbour did one of these, between a tree causing damage and snowfall along with one bad gust of wind the shed logic came to an end after only 3 years. Shelter logic didn't warranty it, a trip to the scrap yard got a few bucks back....

[@mikesworld60]

I wonder what the garbage bill will be in 5 years when the tarp is junk.

[@jamesdrumwright7591]

And just a question regarding price if you don't mind answering. And no worries if you don't wish too, but did you calculate what the coat difference between something like this would be versus a standard pull barn of the same size.

Hi Tim and Christy it looks fantastic whear would we be without friends nice video

[@josephsierra7295]

That was a herculian effort! Years ago I put up a 10x16 on my own (glad to see you had resources avaialble to you) and it was a major PIA. It lasted probably 15 or more years. Weather took it's toll on it and one particularly heavy snow finally made it meet it's demise before I was able to clear it off. But it owed me nothing at the end. That said I replaced it with concrete, wood and nails. End of story. Thanks for sharing.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

15 years is definitely all we would need. Like you say, it wouldn’t owe us anything at that time. We’re thinking 5 yrs should be more than enough for us to know how we need to proceed.

[@johngrossbohlin7582]

From the comfort of my chair... I think I would have tried loosening the end hoop, lean it towards the second hoop, attach the tarp, then pull the hoop back into position with the tractor and reattach the end hoop and braces. I wonder if a big backpack blower applied to the inside surface of the tarp might have helped float the tarp so it could be shifted? Clearly that was a tough job!

That looks to be a well deigned and well made structure, for this category. However, the instruction manual needs a LOT of work. I downloaded the manual and jumped back and forth between the manual and your videos. After a few passes thru, it is starting to make sense. What you should do now is take it down, make a video of the best way to set it up, and then sell the video to ShelterLogic to accompany their manual!
