Looking good! What is that siding on it? Almost looks like sideways channel lap.

Spent a lot of time shopping around for a shed kit that was just right and wouldn’t cost more than some wood and paint. Only thing I had to do was omit the slope kit and redrill some screws. Everything was pre punched, so didn’t need to worry about square and true so much while building it.

I couldn’t name the profile, but they’re about 16” wide extruded aluminum panels. Still have the doors to put together.

Ah they look good. Now you gotta resist the urge to double the price with shelves and hooks.

Just a couple, the rakes/shovels will go on the fence, this is for like the mower and other stuff. Will wire it up for some battery chargers and some light though!

Not a Canadian Tire link. :(

Honestly, not one of my favorite places to go.

I ordered it off of Amazon, but it’s available in a bunch of places. I find you can avoid the cheaper knockoff stuff if you find stuff that’s available in brick and mortar stores. And get it from Amazon if it’s cheaper, try to support local when it’s not an arm and a leg…

So satisfying. Our sloped roof shed is completely full. It used to be a walk in style, 2 by 2 meters. Now it's just....full.

Thanks! Yeah it’s full right now since it’s easier to keep everything in the back than the garage for now. The shovels/rakes and whatnot I plan on hanging outside along the fence if the height works out. So it shouldn’t be too packed in there. I want a separate one for the deck cushions, but we will see, this may work both.

This is 1.2mx3m, couldn’t go much bigger without it being too tall.

You'd think, but then you start buying vintage pitchforks at auctions and putting new handles on them.....there is no shed now, it's a pile of enormous steel forks.

A new handle?! Heathen, I don’t want any pitchforks of Theseus thank you.
