Guys I am sure these are silly questions, but I have all 80 frames together now. Should I go ahead and put the foundation in them? Then do I need to keep this stored in the house where temp is regulated or can I stick the frames and foundations in an out building for storage- no heat no AC?
Peg and I were posting at the same time! So now you've got the opinions of a Southerner and a Northerner.
I'd go ahead and install them. As long as it doesn't get cold cold (way below 32) and you don't move them around a lot, the foundation should be fine. If the foundation is wired you shouldn't have to worry about the heat to much. This weather is perfect, not to cold, not to hot!
I've done a few in advance without problems but you're better off installing the foundation as you need it.
