Hey I want one of those!!!

BengalMan · 11-05-2008, 09:48 PM

Gotcha. Looking forward to your next update!

groogs · 11-05-2008, 09:50 PM

That is looking good. You are making some good progress in a short amount of time, I can't wait to see it all done, and full of smoke.

RichardW · 11-05-2008, 10:11 PM

Very cool -- I'm anxious to see your progress reports.

11-05-2008, 10:55 PM

YOU GO! That is the way to do it!

Def. want to see that Z flashing you are talking about. So, is building this from scratch cheaper than buying one of the kits from home depot and then putting it together? Sorry to threadjack, but I remember you posting that most of your building materials were leftovers, so its def. cheaper for you.

this looks cool, to bad I don't have a yard!

11-06-2008, 09:30 AM

I really want to get this thing done. Here are the photos I promised. Today I should have all the exterior finished Shingles, Door (I had a friend build double doors, If there is one thing I hate it's Door Work) Trim etc...

Let me know if you have any questions.

Looking really good man, and thanks for the info on the Z flashing, makes perfect sense after looking at it.

11-06-2008, 11:30 AM

Very noce work - I likey!

11-06-2008, 11:36 AM

Very nice. Are you planning to insulate it and add a fan to pull the smoke out?

Scottw · 11-06-2008, 01:52 PM

That looks awesome ,I'll be stuck in the shed this winter leaned up against the snowblower.

11-13-2008, 03:33 PM

Wish I had a bigger back yard. If I built one of those, my dogs would barely have room to make rockets.

Very nice work!

WOW! That looks very familiar! I built a 10x12 'storage' shed that has only been used to house my lawn mower. But when the weather gets cold and the 'wind comes sweepin' down the plains', it turns into my 'Gar Den Shed! I am in the process of putting in some insulation and paneling and even making a wrap around bar on two of the walls, and shelving (for storage) on another. I am running some power to it also from an existing 20amp box just to run a shop light and a heater, previously I just ran an extension cord into the shed. I've had as many as 4 guys in there smoking and the one window opened a bit allows smoke to find a way out. I'll try to post some pics later.

I was going to fire one up tonight, but I am beat... the exterior is complete (Except for Paint) I also ran the Conduit (Underground) for the Elec. and Cable from the house to the "Shack" including punching through the walls.

I didnt stop to take photos and it was too dark when I stopped working so I will try to get some up tomorrow.

On the menu for tomorrow: Pull power and cable, install outlets, hang lights, take some photos & have a smoke... Thanks for all the support thus far!

Thanks! I put Concrete anchor bolts down and attached the Floor framing (Treated 2x6's) to it then put the floor Sheeting down (It will stay with the House)
