[QUOTE="RobMZ06, post: 11745, member: 396"] I feel your pain bud!! I was in the middle of putting up a 10ft by 20ft portable garage when a HUGE storm came rolling in. I had the garage anchored in the ashphalt. I drilled the ground and inserted anchors, I had the sides and the roof up and was racing against time to put the front and back on when the storm came. The storm pulled the whole garage out of the ground sending it flying over an 8 ft fence into a tree then crashing to the ground about 30 feet away. As I ran to my vette to move it one of the polls came flying at me hitting and cracking my mirror and bouncing of my fender. It turns out the winds were the highest winds measured since the 70's they were 125km/hr!! I too had to clean a crumpled mess of metal, it was so bad it tore the welds apart from the structure. I should have just left up the skeleton and let the storm pass but inpatient me put up the sides and roof creating a huge parachute!! Lesson learned patience is everything!!! [/QUOTE]
