Ted, Folks,
The tractors may have a shelter this winter. The camper will still need to set out since it will not be able to go into the building doors. Somewhat intentional by design. I did not want a monster high building in my yard. 
Anyway no , I dont have a CA ......yet. Maybe some day.
Glad this thread has maybe helped a folks get into these old shift towers too.
 Regard,
 Chris

I learned to tig while working at Maytag. I think we had about 50 toolmakers that had access to the weld booth. Usually when you went in there the tungsten was in sad shape so I kept my own in my toolbox. Saved a lot of time.

 I learned to tig weld when I was working die repair years ago. Once anyone found out I could weld, they forgot how to and came to me to fix  things for them.
 One thing I never did was tig weld aluminum. I tried for about 15 seconds once, when a co worker was trying to show a few guys how to do it, but I had been away from a tig for many years, and I just couldn't control the foot pedal well enough to make a puddle, without blowing a hole in the part. OuchConfused

I hear that! Their weren't too many of us that actually welded. I really enjoyed it. Welding hard tool steel is a tad different from CRS!

Chris, hope you get the shop up before the snow flies!
