      No problem buddy, it’s been fun so far and should work great for when I get the new racers in about 2 months.

      Hey forest man, I just put the loft high enough so that I can rake underneath it. The foundation is a crushed stone compacted and cinderblocks on top. I haven’t seen any signs of rats trying to chew their way in. Thanks for watching and you can check out the video before that one where I show the foundation.
