Shed Building 101

First, get all of the tools you can possible need (knowing there will be many trips to get one more tool, use kids for this) then start with a base to build the shed on.

 

Finish putting down the chip board for the floor. If you want to spend a lot more money, use plywood.

 

 

Get your 87 year old dad to help you pack all of the heavy stuff, he needs the exercise.

 

 

 

Get wife in on the action. They can help pack the heavy stuff too.

 

 

 

Get dad to show you how it is done, later you can start pointing fingers and acting like you know what you are doing. Get the kids to help out, they can pack the heavy stuff by themselves.

 

For the really heavy stuff use the skid steer so you can give dad, wife, and the kids a rest.

 

 

 

Get the kids to do the low stuff so that you don't have to bend over so much. Just being there is enough of a workout.

 

 

 

 

Now that you know what you are doing...don't forget to finger point a lot.

 

 

 

 

 

Use your tall kids on the tall side, short kids on the short side...lesson learned.

 

 

 

 

 

Kids can be used to work up high, they heal better when they fall.

 

 

 

See, they seem to like being up there.

 

 

 

 

Be prepared, some kids just like to sit in the shade, but they still want to go to dinner afterwards.

 

 

Remember, finger pointing is what the boss does.

 

 

 

 

 

No time for a lot of smiling, finger point some more, its getting hot out here.

 

 

 

Remember, kids can pack the heavy stuff by themselves, work up high, they bend better, and don't forget to use their height.

 

 

Project finished, 87 year olds, and some kids just can hang in there.

Finger pointing also helps them clean up the mess.
