Don't mention it.  That's what friends/neighbors are for.  Thanks for the beer and brats, they hit the spot.  It was fun!  And I even learned something.  Smiley

That's what I get for not reading carefully.  I read "I thought it would take us 2 hours... but with lots of help, we had it up in less than 4 hours".
I thought you were getting help similar to most of the help I got in Kerrville.

F Stop..Yep  on the slab...... You are right!!!!! Mr. Hauler is a CLASS ACT!!!!!!!!! and a Good friend!!!!!!! Over 3000 bolts ta put this thing together!!!!
He came by this afternoon after work and helped me get the tiedown anchors in the walls...... and take down the supports we used to build the barn..   Today I washed the oil off the panels, and painted them with a laquer to protect them from the grout that will lock the walls in place.  Bought the grout today.... and checked on renting a mixer...... have 50 plus 80 lb bags of grout to mix....$100 a day to rent... bought one for 300 bucks....Start in the morning grouting in the walls!!!!!!!everything is anchored down.... ready to lock in place....
 Then I can build the end walls with garage doors and get all the power run in the shop!!!!!   WoooHooo!!!! a place ta work out of the weather other than the patio!!!!!!!!.  And a place ta lock up the bikes !!!!!!! Will use the old bike storage place on the patio fo patio starage..... heaters, tables, chairs, cookers, pots, serving stuff.....gonna be GREAT!!!!!  25X36 Ft .... not real big.... but big enough if I don't start storing a bunch of JUNK!!!!  which I tend ta do....

Oh, I definitely had the help I needed, it was the "help" (harrassment) that I didn't need.
