Scott has been wanting a woodshed. I thought the project could wait, so he built it in the shop one day while I was distracted by baby pigs. It was a great use of the last bits and bobs of scrap metal now that all our serious projects are done. Much of the structural steel had to be spliced from two- and three foot pieces, but it is certainly adequate for the job of keeping our wood dry without storing it underfoot in the metal shop.
At 11 and a half feet wide the trick was to get it out of a 12 foot door. Not to fear- grasshopper to the rescue! Scott rigged the building to the frame of the grasshopper like a turtle and inched it out the door,
through the yard, up the hill, and
into place. He poured concrete around the footings and loaded in our wood before nightfall and the next day it rained. Way to go Scott!
