Can I hear the story

I built it in my living room/dining room and we had a backhoe and a dump truck recently drive over the padio and it shifted the damn foundation of the house and the sliding glass door frame tweaked LOL so we couldnt take the doors out, we ended up having to damn near beat them out.

lol heres the first time it saw daylight, you can see the doors in the background, beaten and bruised but out..
