Yep, had to save $$ so where. My financial advisor wasn't to happy when I bought the first treated lumber for it...
Well, ya gotta spend a little somethin somethin in order to do it right or you'll regret not doin it right
Yes sir, I 'splained things to her... I could see out of one eye in a couple days...... I told her I build things to last...
Got the 2x8x14 joist put up yesterday evening after work. Got to get a few hanger ties and will be able to put rafters on. Hmm...won't be long maybe.
Got started on the shed while had some shade this morning. Checked my stash of metal roofing, had enough. Just have to change the name to calico shed... Then had enough 2x6's that we saved from our deck when we built on the laundry room to make the rafters. Got 3 more rows to tie down. Then strips and metal.
We finally got the calico shed finished, thank you, JESUS. Got the rafters finished Thursday evening, then started on the 1x4 strips Friday morning Our friend, Mike came up and helpd get the boards and metal roofing up to me. Feeling like a champ now... Starting on the panels... Almost done... Roof done It's a hoarder's shed almost...lol...I did have to buy some lumber, but most of the floor was equipment skids, the walls are free pallets, the rafters are 2x6 decking from our old deck, 1x4's from my sister's roof job we did last year, the green metal is left over from our house we did 3 yrs ago, the brown metal we got cheap from the metal roofing place, and the blue screws came from our son's house we just did.
Great job on the framing and roof Jeff. You always wanted to get up in the world! At least you were closer to God! One of the job's benefits! Cant wait to see it with some wood in it.
pallets or any other kind of wood placed right on the ground will rot. In mine I have 2X4s 10” apart running left to right across the entire floor to stack on. BUT only after I leveled it well and placed them on paving stones to keep them off the ground and any moisture. I also put down a thick 4” layer of sand
