I used T1-11 plywood with 8" centered grooves for siding. It went up fast and easy.

I want to put some windows in but I'll do it later. My objective was to get the building up by the end of Christmas break. I made it.

I have a friend who is building a house the next town over. The city is making him put in opening windows on a wall that overlooks a valley. He wanted picture windows. The city's building code requires an opening window in every room. It's a great room so there really is no fire danger. Anyway, the short story is opening windows will go on the house then after the final inspection they will be replaced with a large picture window. I may wind up with those windows.

Next weekend I'll take some pictures of the yard looking the other way at my derelict firewood pile. I built a woodshed last fall but we didn't get the wood stacked in time for the winter rains. There's some beautiful redwoods there.

Paint and trim today.


You can see the 1000 reflectors inside


Redwoods just outside



I have some more to do tomorrow. I split some firewood while I was waiting for paint to dry so I didn't work as hard as I usually do on the shed.

Really nice job on the shed, Bob. Any idea just how tall those trees are next to the shed? They are awesome!

I realized I didn't post the end of the story.







I got a used but great condition roll-up door. I have to put gutters on it and I'll call it complete.

Jim, I used a theodolite and measured the tree next to the shed. After a little trigonometry I got 145'. Tall, but only 1/2 the height of some of the biog old-growth redwoods around here. You are looking at California Sequoia Sepervirens or Coastal Redwoods. It is blessing to live here with them.

Looks great Bob, you did a nice job. They make you get a permit for that sized shed? Over here anything up to 200 sq ft, no permit.

Great end result Bob. Definately shows off your talent, wow. Also kudos to you for keeping it going with also having the k series on the wood splitter! Well done. One day I need to get out there and see those trees too, amazing.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
