More Construction

As the weather has warmed, Holly and I have opted to immerse ourselves in yet another construction project.  Since our garage has been taken over by yard care equipment, we really need a shed.  This is a perfect opportunity to use the skills that I learned while building the basement.

I’ve always been impressed with the look of shed kits but I’ve never really heard anything good about them.  It seems like they always have some flaw, usually associated with the floor joists being too small to accomodate the weight that they are asked to support. Becasue of this fact, Holly and I opted to draw up plans on our own and make the shed how we wanted.  Another factor in this decision is that we wanted to put it under the deck.  Because of the odd shape and height restrictions, a kit probably wouldn’t work very well for us.
