Default Relocate metal shop

This might be the dumbest idea I've ever had. Sept 09 c.c slab gets placed in front, adjacent to shop slab, same size as shop,(20X30), original plan was to just double shop size. It would then be odd size shop.
Now, I mean to move shop forward to sit on new slab . House movers could do it, but I'm toying with the stupid idea of doing it myself. Find out weight, 6 or 8 Jack's set under truss cross beams, lift and either use wench or my pickup to pull forward. Only utility is elect, easy to disconnect and re-route. Set it down on 50 wheel dollies.

I dont understand why previous owners Put shop in its location, if I move shop view is 5 miles a cross valley, it would be great sunrises views.

I've already moved back fence back 10' , and side fence out 12', switched to aluminum fake wrought iron on side fence. View is 30' wide, moving shop would give me 60' long view 60-70 'wide, view.

view from most of backyard and pool. Need to thin out some of 80 labs on property.
ut some of the 80 oak trees to improve view.

Or is this as "hand me your beer and watch this" moment?



Bottom line can is, can it be done my insane way?? be done by an idiot with as stupid idea just I ? I love a chalange.


o it?????���� scary

Best decion,hire house mover....
