Last week we received our new Maintenance Tent from the US. In a couple of weeks we must vacate the garage and we needed a place to go to so we bought this tent. It is brand new never used except the front door panel which will be replaced. It came with all the lights etc. Gilles

...... to store the Hammond Barn inside for the Winter....

Would hate to use it on a back packing canoe trip.......

Are you moving out of the house for the Winter..... I think Carole will be upset living in there.

What did the container weight when you go it...?

Well Gilles, you've got the A1, A2 and B echelons. Now all you need are some F echelon vehicles and a few more troops!

Well I can "MAYBE" finally boast with proof that "mine is bigger than yours". No Bob, Carolle is not moving into the tent but you have to admit that it is quite the doghouse if I am banished. That container was very heavy, so we dragged it in place with the wrecker.
As to being a Rear echelon type, better believe it. I now have a Maintenance tent to go with my CUCV M1031 Maintenance truck and my M816, 5 ton wrecker.
The reason I bought it is that we will only be in this location till next summer, then we will disassemble it and move it to a new location, also this is classified as a non permanent building, so no municipal taxes. Believe it or not it is classified the same as a Tempo temporary car garage.
Our primary use is storage and to work in, secondary usage Beer Hall!!!
