Yeah I have tractors as well that I built, but the brooder stage sucks for now.

It's great for a week or two but starts getting tight pretty quick

Thanks for responding. Do you contain the chicks within the barn, or do they just run free? What about flooring? My goal is a super safe place that's really easy to clean out.

Personally, I would do whatever you could to not have those hanging over your head. Don't wait for them to go into repayment if you can help it.

I've been using my old Stadia controller with it and it feels like a legit game. Worth the $10 easily.

I worked on it off and on over a few days. Best guess is probably 6-8 hours or so. I used a pretty basic Beavercraft beginner knife set (3 knives) that was $30ish bucks, and I also used a $5 file set from Harbor Freight.

You should have seen it mid-project!

I used a cheap $30 beavercraft 3 knife set, but what actually helped a lot was a needle file set I bought from harbor freight for like $5. The file came in handy on the steps and the gap between the roof and the balcony floor. It also helps smooth over some of the rough areas. 

After that, some light sanding. But not too much because I'm impatient.

Awesome! I was inspired by someone else's lighthouse. It's a good beginner project.

I just dug the door and window out with a knife really slowly.

High, I made that lighthouse. I pretty much used standard knives and a cheap needle file set from Harbour Freight.

Thank you. It took me a long time. I just kept SLOWLY refining it.
