Kenneth FinneganSo I've got this empty concrete pad on the side of my house.
It used to have a rotted out 12x24' shed on it, but I demolished that last fall and figured I could do something better... 🧵
Day one was grinding down the high spots with a diamond cup wheel. $75 for the cup wheel and corded angle grinder.
Day two is opening up the cracks with a diamond cut disc and filling them with crack sealer. $40 for the diamond discs and crack filler.
My dad volunteered to come down and help me restack all of the lumber inside of the fence and all in its own piles so I can get to all of it.
Only took the two of us about 2 hours to shuttle everything back there.
The inaugural wall frame. Now just fill with studs, repeat five more times, attach together, add roof, and bongo bango, you've got yourself a shed.
The inaugural mistake! I meant to leave that stud out so I'd have room to nail the header in.
So I guess we've moved to the "improvising" stage of this project.
Day two of framing my new shed. I woke up this morning and can still move, but I'm beginning to suspect that I don't want to quit my job and start framing houses for a living.
Graham McIntire@kwf especially after you see how insanely fast the guys that do that regularly can raise a stick frame. I’d keel over dead working at their pace.
