Well, we had a hellacious wind and rain storm Wednesday that claimed an entire side of my shop tent. I dragged out the biggest tarp I had on hand and it wasn’t long enough, and I knew then I was about to begin an endless fight.

I knew it needed replacing, and I’ve been looking for the right deal on either a container or an enclosed trailer, but it was now or an endless stream of fighting tarps and having wet tools.

After I checked the weather and saw I had about a week of good weather, I jumped on Facebook marketplace and came across a guy selling PackRat mobile storage units. He had 8x12’s with plastic roofs listed for $1000 for pickup. I struck a time and me and Evan headed down this afternoon.

Get down there and the only 8x12 he’s got available has a busted door, a problem I don’t have time for. BUT, all was not lost, as he had an 8x16, freshly repainted, with a metal roof, for $1500. SOLD. Strapped it down and took the backroads home, cause with all that wind resistance my old IDI could barely maintain 55 lol. We got her home, and between the 12k winch on the trailer and the 9k on the pathfinder we managed to get her down off the trailer rather gently. More to come.
