After seeing Baada's garden shed workshop I thought I'd post mine here as well. I live in a house with a very small yard and the Boro building codes require structures to be set back from property lines 5 feet. So that limited the size of my shed to 10x12 as to not take up my whole driveway or yard. the shed was built by my the man who lived next door to my wife where she grew up and is 14 1/2 feet tall. I bought the shed from him for $700.00 plus $200.00 to have it moved. When I bought it, it was a very dark brown color and had white metal trim that was damaged in a few areas. So first order was to paint the exterior and add new trim (sorry no before pics) also the windows were on the wrong side and they were cheap plexi-glass that opened from the outside. I bought 2 small windows from Lowes and installed them on the other side and closed up the old ones.
Inside I built a workbench and moved my tools in, I added electric and lights.
I inherited this wall of bins and most of the content from my grandfather. He had them in his garage and they are filled with nails, screws, nuts, bolts and washers of all types and sizes. I could not just throw it all away so I brought it all home from Virginia Beach.
My loft ( What a MESS, I really need to clean it up and reorganized it.)
Opposite from loft
My Vise
Climate control
2nd plate of License plate collection. This was on my wifes car old car we actually got it past PennDot (DMV). 1st plate in collection is my grandfathers motorcycle plate on tool box
And finally a night shot
Future plans are to add a small lean to shed on the rear to house all garden tools (rakes,shovels, weed wacker and possibly lawn mower) then cover walls with OSB and reorganize floor plan, do some type of flooring and clean up area beside shed and add another gate. Thanks for looking and any question or comments welcomed.
