Multi-Purpose Hoop Storage Building
"Our new low-cost, multi-purpose hoop storage buildings are easy to put up and cheap to maintain. They're ideal for the do-it-yourself person looking for backyard storage," says Darryl Enns of Stream Shelters, a farm-based manufacturer of innovative, low-cost hoop-type shelters.
Silver Stream makes the innovative wood-truss hoop buildings first featured in FARM SHOW two years ago (Vol. 25, No. 2). Laminated wood "hoops" are covered with canvas so they look like other "hoop" buildings but cost less and can be more easily finished off inside.
The new multi-purpose Heritage Series buildings are made of wooden 2 by 6's with slots cut into them where a 2-in. dia. pipe is inserted lengthwise down the building, along the peak, as well as at two side points. The canvas touches only the pipes, not the wood corners, so there's no wear. Three pipes keep the canvas off the rafters. The purlins consist of 1 by 4's which are installed from the inside. The walls and ends of the building are made of wood and tin.
The company supplies pre-manufactured rafters, purlins, pipe, pipe and ratchet tie, and tarps in various colors.
"With a silver tarp, it looks like a metal-clad building but at a fraction of the cost. These buildings work great for use as a garage or garden shed, or to house livestock or store bales or feed, etc.," says Enns.
Sizes available are 16, 20, and 24 ft. wide by 24 ft. long. The 16-ft. wide model sells for $1,450; the 20-ft. wide model for $1,775; and the 24 ft. wide model for $1,950.
