Good point! Ill keep that in mind for mine.... Particle board too weak you think?

I love the wood flooring! I have some scrap I was gonna use to do the same with. Could you have gotten away without having the plywood support underneath?

Next was was insulation and drywall.... Looking back at it, I should have a. cleared more things out before putting in the insulation and b. took a better look at my framing so I had better nailers for the drywall to hang on. By doing this, the drywall would have came out a little better. I then...

Once the window was in, I started on the electric. Some might wonder why I have 220v going to such a small shed.... The main reason is I could, and relativity easily. I was very lucky to get a enough 10/3 direct burial cable for an incredible price. I also thought, once the electric is buried...

Unfortunately, as I started this project, the Salt Box was full with ALL of my tools, and lawn equipment. My mower, weedwacker, shovels, table saw, drill press, spare electrical parts, spare plumbing supplies, band saw, fishing poles, boat parts, were all stuffed into this thing. This caused...

The first thing I did was install another window. I found this nice vinyl double hung on craigslist for free! And the best part was it was only a few miles from home! Unfortunately, the person I got it from didn't mention the orientation of the window/ I didnt pay attention to where the seals...

"The Salt Box" as I'm calling it, gets its name from her Salt Box like design, with the two roof pitches being different, front and back. It will be my primary work place for anything that will fit in there.... woodworking, small equipment repair, and storage for my tools. Its my all purpose...

looks like a nice build! Keep the pics coming! Im starting my 10x16 build so I am inspired!

Considering my barn doors have no weatherstripping on them, I'm with you guys. Im gonna roll the dice with the fiberglass roof.

Good question and one my family and friends have asked as well. The answer is aesthetics really. I like the finished look of drywall over OSB. Without a doubt, I love the simplicity of OSB, plywood, luan, etc, but I wanted a cleaner look. Something akin to this guys...

I like the idea of the fiberglass batts better, and then sealing it up as tight as possible. I only want electric heat, which should be dry, and only on intermittently, not heated or cooled constantly. And like you mentioned, there will be no shower. Right now, the shed is very dry. All of the...

If I wanted to screw the foam panels to the rafters what type of fasteners can I use? Can I attach the sheet rock over it?

Sounds like a good plan- now I need to find some left overs, lol.... :shocking:

Thanks for the link. Good reading! Although I cant make heads or tails of if I should vent it or not. I'd prefer to have it not vented, and I think I can if I can seal it tight enough without an air gap? Good idea to check craigslist for the leftovers... Next question- how to I keep the rigid...

Lower NY- so some snow in the winter, and some heat in the summer (profile changed)
