3Bay Barn

Yesterday we did some work in the 3Bay Barn. Some of the big upper beams were showing signs of age so we provided some support for them in the form of some mighty large 24-foot 2x12 boards. We also added the framework for some flood lights which will hang from the new boards. The scaffolding was set up in the barn beneath the beams in question. Then we hoisted the boards up using ropes and bolted them in place.

There are three sets of beams which need support and lighting added, so wash, rinse, repeat two more times - the scaffolding will be dismantled, moved over, and rebuilt beneath each set of beams.
