Those guys are nuts!!! I remember reading about this, but they didn't have the disassembly blog up yet. I just can't believe they bought this thing (who knows for how much), taken the time and fundage to relocate it, and the kicker - they knew in advance they had NO PLACE to store it or rebuild it!!!!!!! Cool guys and all, but WTF were they thinking?

For a project like that, if you have the land, just build something to put it in.  A small outbuilding wouldn't be too hard if they had the space and the skills.

That they really really wanted it and didn't give a flying ---fudgesicle--- what their wives thought.

I think they're geat, the world, in general, need more people like him and fewer people like this one.

Apparently his wife is cool with it - she's the one in the pics with the big smile on her face. She must be the coolest wife on the planet.

Some wives are smart enough to know that if her husband is completely occupied by a hobby project he has no time for other women.
