I bought a 40 ftr aluminum several years ago & is now my workshop. However the roof does not handle snow load well. Anything over 8 in snow I shovel it off. The roof really starts to sag. Also it sweats on the inside quite a bit from the ceiling. One more thing, the ants have gotten into the wood filler in the doors. Can't seem to get rid of them. Other than that it seems to draw less attention than a box trailer from the town.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Also set it a few inches above the ground for air circulation.
