Soon after, a 3-man crew arrived and started laying out precisely the pole positions for this pole barn.
Drilling the post holes was easy on the east side, but in the west side, where the hard clay has settled for millennia, they really had to put weight on the auger.
Meanwhile, the roof trusses arrived on a 41' trailer. The driver wasn't as good as he thought he was, but after many back & forths, and my moving pallets out of the way for him, and the foreman guiding him, he got the trusses reasonably close to the barn site.
This crew demands precision within 1/8".
They tell me this trailer holds all the steel "skin" for the roof and walls.
End of the first day:
