Can I assemble a metal building by myself? (slrpnk.net)

I bought this for pretty cheap at an auction and I don’t even know if there are instructions inside. I’m a pretty handy guy with time and tools and some knowledge. I’ve worked on roofs before and know the basics of many other trades.

Probably not. It's not going to be skill issue but no matter how handy you are, you still only have two of them. Not too long ago I watched a video of a guy setting up a single car garage like this on his own and he was struggling immensely.

Nah, not him. It was in the recommendations - not someone I've subscribed to
