An Engineer Through and ThroughSo the wood shed is coming along good but has now come to a stand still due to a lack of building materials. For the record... I love free stuff!
So my parents just reworked the deck in their backyard. The 2x4 decking they removed is good and available. So now I have a line on a total of 100, 10 foot and 12 foot 2x4's. Whoo Hooo!
Oh crud I traded my road worthy pickup for a new vehicle. The new wheels (I'll cover the new car soon) doesn't have a trailer hitch... So how do I haul all these 2x4's? Calling in a favor and getting Dad's help has the logistal plan is coming together. Hmmm now for 6 sheets of plywood for the roof.
The image above is a 3D solids model of the shed. It really isn't required to get the job done, but having a plan makes it go faster. Once I have worked in out in ProE I know which direction to go.
I figured out the other night that I starting building the shed too close to the barn for the overhang I intended. The "mobile shed" concept will get tested sooner than planned. DMP

I like your wood shed. Sounds like you have been very busy with building and travel, etc.
We are doing the usual around here - school, soccer games and homework. The court of honor was very nice. Hope Spenser can still get his head through doorways!
What the....? You traded your sweet pickup? Are you talking about the four door or the Landcruiser? Say it aint so!
Just rhino-line the trunk of the Caddi and bungycord the lid. You ought to be able to fit quite a few 2X4's in there.
Holden and I went camping this last weekend and even completed a hike. It was wonderful.
