WOW!!! That looks like a super stout building :thumbsup:

......and when you're finished building it you should completely wrap it in that shrink wrap stuff they use on pallets....LOL!!.

Thanks Teblig. We wanted to make it stout but I didn't want to spend a lot.

Not at the moment but we made the shed close to the garage so that I can be done if I choose to

I hope I can get it done before the snow flys but I might have to finish the roof in March.

Do you plan to wrap the exterior with tarp material (plastic) to keep the interior from filling with snow which will melt and rot the floors and base plates? Otherwise....it's looking KILLER!!! :thumbsup:

We're going to put OSB board on the shed walls next week wrapped in tyvek to protect it until we get the matching siding on in the spring. Also hope to have the doors on

RustyRatRod · Nov 30, 2018

Hurry up. It's gonna snow! lol

It's already snowing LOL. We are probably going to just put the outside walls on and put Tyvek over them to protect them. The roofing and interior walls and floors will have to wait until spring.

No not all season but we get our share of snow, that's for sure. It has already laid on the ground and melted. We are getting a serious rain today so no eowo on the shed today but tomorrow is supposed to be a decent day. I am not bumming too much, today is my birthday and other than going to dinner tonight I plan on doing nothing LOL

Thank you,
My buddies Larry, Bob and Greg (all brothers) know way more about this stuff than I do. Without their guidance and help I wouldn't even attempt this. We are working on it tomorrow as it's going to be 50 degrees and no rain. More pictures tomorrow.

Treblig · Dec 1, 2018

Now get your butt back outside and finish the shed!!

Lol,
Just came in for a short break, heading back out to cover the wood with plastic to keep it dry. Pics soon.

superchargeddrt · Dec 2, 2018

Well here is your update. We got the upper walls completely framed in and fastened. We also temporarily wrapped the walls in plastic to protect the OSB. Here are the pictures.
