O/T Temporary Shelters

Posted by jmauss on March 11, 2006 at 19:33:17 from (64.198.83.226):

24 hours ago I didn't even know what O/T meant, and now I already have an opportunity to use it.

My question is whether it is worth it to erect a temporary shelter next to the pasture where my tractor will be parked all summer. It is a bit of a hassle getting from the house to the pasture area where I will be mowing, so I would just like to leave the tractor down there all summer. My plans are to not bring it back to the house until October, unless it needs service of some sort. I have to cross my neighbors property to get to my pasture, and while he does not mind if I do that, I do not want to abuse the privilage, so bringing the tractor back to the house after each mowing is not an option.

I have been looking around, and it looks like I could get a cheap portable garage canpoy for around $250 - $300. A halfway decent one goes for $600 or so. My 350 utility is in pretty good condition, and my mower is brand new. It seems like a cheap way to keep them out of the rain when I am not using them.

What do you all think? Is it money well spent to keep the rain away, or is it a waste of money? If it is worthwhile, do any of you know of any reasonably priced sources of temp garage canopies?

As always, I appreciate your input.

Joe

Today's Featured Article - Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U ... [Read Article]
