The Shed Complete (minus gutters)

The shed is done. Eventually we'll put gutters on it but we're not in a hurry. I could have moved stuff in it long ago, but there was just something about doing it once it was done, so that's what I did. We have more than enough room in it for things, but we figure the shelves will continue to fill over time and by the time bikes are thrown in there, it will fill up plenty. I gotta say, I love it...when I'm in the house I open the blinds on the back window often just because I like to see it out there. -T

There she is!

Let's take a look inside

Shelves and loft
Front shelves

This shot makes the shed looks huge I think

Since the ramp is a little steep I added treads

In all her beauty

Light at the End of the Five Month Tunnel

The shed is only a few minor details away from completion! -T

The trim completed
The kids' loft...not really...a place to store big things

Shelves on the back wall
Shelves for the heaviest small stuff (i.e. gas cans)

Primed and ready to paint

The last time she looked like this...

...until Lindsey wanted stripes!

Oh wait...no...she wanted a PICTURE of the stripes.

A view from the back
Looks different
I'm almost tempted to want to see a tornado hit to see how strong this thing is!

To the front It's like she's always belonged there

Still left: Paint the trim Navajo White, put the last two shelves up, put the gutters/downspouts on, and then move stuff in it of course

A Fully Functional Shed

The shed continues to progress. The "functionality" portion was pretty much completed. We closed in the top and put in soffits and a ramp. The next step is to just make it look better. So, technically I could start putting stuff in it, but I haven't yet. -T

This actually now REALLY hinders the light on the inside

I actually kind of liked the huge step in...but probaby wouldn't with a lawn mower

Ramp complete
I thought we were done with soffits after the kitchen project
Now we're getting into the aesthetics portion!

Don't Forget We're Building a Shed

After a crazy June and July, we finally were able to start making progress on the shed again! For the longest time we've only had one door...that changed our first day back at it! -T

It's the camera that's not level...not the shed

Oh and we cut down the half of apple tree that fell over like 2 months prior

I wonder if our neighbors got tired of looking at it hanging over into their yard?
She's cute

A Roof Building Memorial Day - Completing Phase 3

On a very hot Memorial Day (with a broken air conditioner inside), we almost finished the roof. A few days later - we finished the rest. Yea for shady spots in the yard! -T

It looks good from here

Wuh oh...it seems a little long in some spots
Shingling in the shade

Long day stopping point
Phase 3 Complete

Starting a Hot Phase 3

Phase 3 - the roof - was done in some very hot temperatures. We're lucky this shed is in the shade or it couldn't have been done yet. -T

I had no idea how to even start a roof - that's why I wasn't in charge.

We welcome all visitors
That's not a chimney - that is me being productive
I think it looked cool like this and contemplated leaving it - or doing some sort of see through roof

It looks straight - and that's all that matters

We ran into some math problems - so we called it a day (although all the math added it up)

Phase 2 Continued

Between days of rain, we found time to continue on with the shed. We were concerned with some limbs that were above the shed. We cut down the small one and just hope for the best when it comes to the big one. Then, we made some noticeable progress. -T

The big one would have to be done by a professional

One piece at a time
You don't think we'd go two posts in a row without putting her in, do you?
A rope saved us (and the shed)

Gettin' it down...and Lindsey always makes me feel stronger than I really am

Smile...you're on camera!
3 down
Adding one more helper

All walls accounted for

What's next?

Now it's starting to look like a shed

Look who got into the act

Phase 2 Complete - No, it's complete, trust me

You don't really think we'd put just one picture of her in this post after excluding her in the last one, do you?
