Adventures Of Life!

I guess I take for granted that we know how to build, LOL, mostly how to make something that looks good anyhow. We are no experts but if need be, we can put something together with just a little bit of wood and some nails/screws. With a whole lot of motivation and ingenuity  we can get it up quickly!  That said, I was thinking about this. I asked others what they thought of me putting up a tutorial of sorts on how to build a shed. Now I say of sorts because I am NOT going to tell ya exactly how to do it but instead will give ya some ideas on how we built ours. I think everybody that builds has their way of doing things, some work, some don't. I have pictures for some of this...... BUILDING A SHED: We started by measuring out the spot where we  wanted the posts(key to knowing this measurement is knowing what size you would like the shed) to go on our outside line of the property boundary(first finding that line cuz there isn't a fence line yet).    ...

Got up this morning and these bones of mine were killin me!! Slept like the dead last night probably slept way to long. Frozen Pond So Mtn Man suggested we go on a walk to loosen things up. We started out about 10:30am moseying around the place until we hit the pond then decided to wonder back to the house. Mtn Man said he wanted to get the pantry shelves built today but I think and now know the "Man Upstairs" had other plans for us today. The Shed in Question in the Left Had Corner We wondered up by the ol' shed (24x8) out back and started talking about what to do with it. Hum ho'd around, should we lift it and add some support under there? Maybe cut some cedars about the length of the shed to brace it more? Or should be tear it down and reclaim the wood that is usable to build another or use it  for something else entirely?  After several attempts to lift the shed which only moved about an inch we had our answer. Ok, Lord got the message we were to tear...
