    We've had a 30X50 Whirlwind since 79. Went through Rita and Ike to name a few. Still has original 8 windows in it.

    Yea, mine is definitely not gonna be built like that. These are examples my salesman provided. $13700 delivered and installed. Not quite the cold formed steel beams that whirlwind builds with.

    It does doesn’t it. The sheet metal is stressed skin that holds it all together just the same as a semi-monocoque aircraft (all sheet metal aircraft). Like I said well see how well it holds up. It def couldn’t handle much abuse.

    Should look like this when it’s done.

    Understand the excitement. What size is it and does that price include the concrete?
