Picking up drywall and siding

I got all the raw oak straight from a lumbermill to make all my floors and trim out of.

I decided to buy all the drywall for my upstairs at once and just store it in my garage.  This is the first of the 2 loads.

I'm glad I had a tractor here to help with unloading it, but it left a mess because it didn't have enough weight on the back.

The first time the loader attachment I welded together for the tractor was used was to get the drywall (just for the ceilings for now) upstairs.  It was so much better than hoisting it up by hand.

I also bought all the siding for my house to put in my garage.  I'm only doing the upper half for now, but I wanted to make sure I had enough for all of it in case they stop making it or something.  It doesn't look like much, but since it's fiber-cement, it's super heavy.  What's on that trailer weighs about 8k lbs, and I had to drive all the way to the Lowe's in Manitowoc to get it.

Definitely glad I bought a dually, especially since I tend to load trailers way to heavy on the front.

I got it all unloaded that night.  Took a few hours and about 200 trips on and off the trailer, and I completely wore through a brand new pair of gloves.  It's strapped together so I can't accidentally knock it over.
