The Shed Project

So my friend Sean has been wanting to get a shed for a while now for his backyard because he has kids now and you just can't store stuff in a trailer...it's not feasible with a family's worth of stuff lol. He's been doing the research on the supplies and stuff he'd need and he was able to pick them up this past Wednesday. We had to take the Teen Missions trailer with the Diesel F350 to Home Depot just to get all the stuff. I'll hopefully have a supplies list to post on here later, it was quite intense. It honestly filled a 16 ft trailer and it took the two of us about an hour and a half just to unload it from the driveway and stack it out back.
We were able to start working on it this past Saturday and got the whole floor down. Because we weren't pouring any concrete, he wasn't required to get a permit for it despite it being a whopping 16 x 12 building. We layed concrete blocks down as a base and then built the floor joists and frame. We put house wrap over the top of that to keep any moisture and bugs out, and then put on the plywood flooring. We were set for the day after putting a coating of floor sealant over top of that just to re-enforce no moisture coming through. (yeah dad, it was from Sherwin-Williams heh)

Yesterday, we spent some time cutting and framing together all the walls, making mounts for two windows on either side, and getting them ready to put up today. We got a couple other guys from staff to come over this evening after work and we tacked in all four walls and put the top-plates on, securing the whole thing together. It's really starting to look great and I'm excited to get to the siding and then the trusses for the roof etc. I've been taking pictures along the whole process and will have those up on Facebook. If I ever figure out how to do pics on here too I can for those of you without FB. Anyhow, that's what I've been up to lately. I"m looking forward to seeing several of you when I come home for Christmas for a couple weeks!
