This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the wood badge in tool care.

Some equipment is large, like tractors and trucks, and those need to be protected from the elements to last longer! One could perhaps make one of the following, or something similar:
     - berm shed
     - carport
     - garage
     - building extension

The requirements for this BB is to create a dry place to park a piece of equipment (tractor/truck/utv/etc.)
 - must be large enough for the entire vehicle to fit in easily and stay dry
 - electric powered equipment must have electricity
 - possible storage on the far end, and tractor attachments on the near end
 - need space to be able to enter and exit the piece of equipment


To get certified for this BB, post pictures or a 2-minute video that demonstrates the following:

  - area where the sheltered equipment parking space will be built
  - progress of the construction happening
  - completed sheltered equipment parking space
  - demonstrates an entire vehicle can fit in the space and stay dry
  - demonstrates electricity is available at the structure
  - demonstrates there is extra storage in the structure for equipment parts/attachments
  - demonstrates that the pieces of equipment can enter and exit the space
