Also, Mark's right on w/ the metal detector note above and have you found anything cool yet digging/raking through the dirt?
Such a cool building!

Yes, I have Pete. I even looked at that one. You can buy it $15 cheaper directly from the manufacturer, free shipping. https://standartpark-usa.com/collect...er-home-design

Problem is, it just isn't big enough. I would have to build a huge tapered base for it. I did find one that is larger, but the price goes up by the square apparently. Still, at $545, not too bad. I will still take more engineering to support the base.

The metal one I am looking at has a huge base, and will not take nearly as much work prepping the hole. It will, however, be considerably more difficult to put in place.
