    Anyone lift/re-level a shed?

    Your plan sounds good. Don't lift too much at once on any one side or corner and just use your cribbing to hold the shed while you repair your base. We raised and moved a shed on a 6 12' lengths of 4" pvc pipe. Just rolled it along Egyptian style. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

    Dead cat farm

    Re: Repurposing several farm buildings Ah New England, your stuff is so much older and has more character than most of what you see out here in the 'ole west'. We moved into a small farm with 4 outbuildings a year ago and none of them have some of the features of yours despite the similarities...

    How about a bicycle trailer?

    How did you set up your axle to avoid deflection of your wheels under load? On burley and even some of the Bob trailers there is a typical quick release style wheel mount so the wheel's axle is supported on both sides. With the minimal clearance around your wheels I'd be afraid it would bind...

    44 Bikes Frame Shop

    Have fun at the show. I went last year when it was in Denver. Some fantastic workmanship from many of the smaller fabricators and backyard builders. Hopefully you're planning on going with some of your rides in tow, they'd fit right in there. cheers :beer:

    shed into work shop

    "cause now I dont know where to put the box" Could you get some thin sheet and fab out a new top? Or you could get some butcher block and make a top for it out of wood and mount it on a stand as another work surface? Possibly under-mount it to another bench or in a larger cabinet? You...

    Tuffshed Converted.

    After the first two pics I thought. "Hey, I have a Tuff Shed just like this." By the end I was thinking..."I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy!" :bowdown: That's a badass place. You should send Tuff Shed some pics they might use your space in ads or something. It makes me rethink my little red shed I...

    Suburban Neo-Vintage 3 Car Garage

    Neo-Vintage is right. You've really orchestrated a masterpiece here with the signs, vintage paint on the cabinets, tin wainscot and plenty of open workspaces. All the individual touches add to the whole effect. Really well done. :rocker: On the other hand really, really disappointed with the...

    My little 2 car garage

    Is your baseboard stainless as well or some kind of flashing? That'd look good if you wrapped a platform as well. I'm not sure how you'd protect it from staining and rust, but it would be pretty slick.

    My little 2 car garage

    How deep is the ledge? Looks like its about bench-width. It might cut out the height you might get from shelving or cabinets (unless you're really tall) but then again it saves you from worrying about getting things off the ground. You're floor and paint came out really nice. Good looking so far.

    25x28 Detached Garage

    Really nice build. Your use of lighting, both interior and exterior, is pretty classy. The effect of those bulkhead lights will be more impressive with your cabinets in there. I'll definitely be interested to see how you bring everything together. Great work!

    Need help mounting in metal shop

    Sorry I read the title of this thread and the only thought I had was that "mounting in the metal shop" is a very odd ****** position. Yes, definitely go with the clamp...or something...back to adulthood I go.
