Default The project
Most of you guys may know the wife and I recently moved back to the city. Since then I haven't been able to play much while trying to get the new place in order. This is the project that I just finished. Still have to build a shop and fence. We finally had a storm shelter installed last week too so no more dodging tornadoes.

12x20 Barn type shed. Building it myself saved about $1500.















Lofts inside on both ends. Building some simple shelves saved another $200.

Nice job!! Looks like your a pretty good carpenter....... You say you moved back to the city?? Sure doesn't look like any city I've seen, there's no house right next to yours, no skyscrapers in the distance, and you actually have grass instead of asphalt.. Looks more like the country .......WW

I know, you wanted to be a mod here soooo bad you went and built your very own Barn, right Bill. Not even JUS thought of that, not that he ever could have, a thought that is
All kidding aside, nice job Bill

Thanks Wayne, we are in the city by definition; within the city limits. We have 1 acre so you almost have to work at annoying the neighbors (if you're so inclined to).

Yes he does, but it WOULD take a devious mind to uncover my plot to become a mod.
