Lars 526 #1 Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Since the winter is getting closer i had to put some tractors in storage. I have a storage room in the same building as the garage / workshop.which should be slightly warmed up just so it's degrees above zero not sure yet if i have time to do it before it's get to cold..made a shelf in there this summer to have the suburban 551, so I can get a tractor under it well she's on the way up.. whit out any problem's thanks to this winch im going to mount it on the wall later because that will be much better.. and here she is on her storage place And she got company of 3 other horses in there to and if i do some more cleaning i can can get 1 more horse in there...

squonk 43,843 #5 Posted November 21, 2013 Hope you threw enough hay in there before you closed the door! Funny, I didn't see a water heater or a table lamp in there either! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

meadowfield 2,754 #8 Posted November 22, 2013 That's what I need! I've lost the use of my trailer for the winter now because the GT, c121 and c161 are on there out of the way :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrightorchid 261 #9 Posted November 22, 2013 Seems like a lot of weight being held up on the corner by just one 2x4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,985 #10 Posted November 22, 2013 Neat! Been thinking along those lines myself, to give a bit more room in the workshop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lars 526 #12 Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) Seems like a lot of weight being held up on the corner by just one 2x4. frame on the wall is secured by 140 mm (5.5 inch) screws 3 pcs in each wall stud so there are 21 screws in the wall. and the 2X4 on the corner is screwed with 6 pieces into the frame. And 6 pieces in rafters .. Have tested it with 2 times the weight of the Suburban without problems. what will fail first is the rafters, due to heavy snow we have here in Norway. but it is made ​​of C30 2x8 Edited November 23, 2013 by Knusern Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don1977 605 #14 Posted November 25, 2013 Seems like a lot of weight being held up on the corner by just one 2x4. It's only holding 25% of the tractor and shelf. Some where around 150 lbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wheeledhorseman 579 #18 Posted December 17, 2013 Nice one Lars - trouble is that now I'll have to make sure I don't leave my laptop on in the barn because if my horses see this then they'll demand better winter stabling! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
