Oh, wow, sorry you're having such a time trying to get your carport. My brother had to deal with a company who acted like this and it was just so frustrating to hear his tryings to just get in touch with them and then getting moved from person to person. I can only imagine how frustrating it is, especially when you were so excited to get it. :hugsThe least the company should do is give you some, if not all, your money back plus the carport,too; bad on their part for poor customer service.

I just got my carport delivered and set up. We are actually going to use it for a carport. The company is American Steel and it took 2 months to get it delivered. I guess they had to mine the iron ore and make the steel.

Supposed to be here in 3 days....

This past weekend we purchased 25 of the panels and my mom also bought 3 large old barn doors from an antique store a couple weeks ago. They are stall doors from an old horse barn. I will post pictures when I get home.

They called yesterday and said they can't come out on Friday because they got behind in deliveries due to the rain. They rescheduled us for Tuesday. :barnie

It seems like I'm never gonna get my barn.... :( I'll be happy when it finally gets here and done. Once it gets here, I can pen my sheep up, I can buy hay, and I will be able to have pens inside where I can separate the ewes when I feed grain so I can give them each the amount they need. I think it will be a big help so I can make sure everyone's eating what they're supposed to.

:\ I know you must be really bummed. :hugs

On the other hand (as Tevye would say) all those things will be sweeter when it is finally up! I am right there with you sheepgirl!
We have slowwwwww progress.... 4 posts in, only 16 more to go.:\
Dh is not a morning person.:rolleyes:

Question... we are considering 6-8 inches of the rock dust... are you putting dirt over top or leaving them on the rock dust? Cannot figure out whether it will be deep enough. Do you know what is suggested?

Oh, GEEZ SheepGirl! I'm SO sorry to hear about yet another delay! What a bummer!

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with your carport. We are going to need a barn in the near future, and are seriously thinking of starting with a carport.
