Shed update....

This weekend Greg and David have made amazing progress on this shed. After they got the base down Saturday morning they really picked up speed and by last night they had all 4 walls up!! Here are some pictures showing just how much work they did and the stages as they progressed!!

The first wall...after moving this well Greg stated that this shed not only stays put when we move, but that we aren't moving for a VERY long time!!

Greg and David building the second wall...

This shot gives you a GREAT perspective on just how large this thing is...Keep in mind Greg is 6 feet tall...

And here they are working on the third wall...yes, that is David using a large and powerful saw...and no, no one was sent to the ER!!

Yay, the third wall is up and you can now see where the door will be going....

Here they are moving the last wall into place...you can see that this is not an easy task, and my mom was just there to roll the furniture dollies underneath, they didn't have her lifting anything! This time they used furniture dollies to help hold some of the weight while they wheeled the wall, but trying to turn the corner around the pool proved to be a little bit of a challenge. Of course, they worked it out and got it where it needed to go...and notice the open square of wood in the middle of the wall, that is where the window will go. They cut that out later on once the wall was up in place.

Here are all 4 walls nailed together in place, never to be moved again!! They cut the window out after I took the picture...sorry...They will be putting the window, door and roof on next weekend. Now we're just hoping the neighborhood cats don't take up residence in there until it's closed off.

And here are David and Greg just "hanging around" after getting it all nailed together.

Next weekend I will take more pictures as they put the door and window in, heck, Greg may even do that stuff this week, but the roof will be going up this weekend. The roof will have a skylight, a vent (one of the round twirly kind you have over attics) and shingles. Also, in case you're wondering, that white pipe sticking up in front of the shed in the picture above near the pool is where the kid's drinking fountain is going after the shed is all done!

A note to Grandma B...I think I figured out what to do to allow you to click on the pictures to make them bigger...it should work for the pictures above!! I'll try this method again next time too and see if it works again!!
