    I know this isn't the point of your post, but from that view thru your front door - that shed definitely looks good!

    Thanks! Still a BUNCH to do, but the finish line is visible. Maybe you should see it close up. ;)

    Brian, is your shed to have a crushed stone floor? I'm wondering how those gaps at the bottom of your boards, will be filled. Stone on both sides?

    No stone yet. Once I finish the sides, I have a bit more to do. The far right side needs a little more grading, when done, probably a staymat load getting put down. I need to trench around the barn just a bit and add a little stone there as well for added drainage even though I have a fair amount of overhang.

    We had fall like temps here this morning, and it was a nice change for working. Managed to get both sides on. Still a ton to do, but we're getting there now!

    Trimmed up the outer posts, framed up the loft area and a rear shelf in the middle bay towards the back. It will fill up fast once I'm ready to put everything else in there.
