I like that too! There's no way you can have too much area under roof!

But it will hide the beautiful stone foundation :lol: Nice, you just can't have too much 'dry' storage.

Sure wish I had more....

Bob:

Are you going to add some storage shelves above the foundation wall? Might be a good place to store some of the lighter stuff when not in use :idea:

Nice shed. Love it. Thinking about doing the same thing this summer off the side of my house.

Did you pour the pad yourself or have a truck come in?

Thanks for the comments, I have been busy you know how that is, Yes I am going to put shelves above the foundation wall, the shed is 28 x 12 so I can drive a cub straight in with a implement on the hitch. If you look at the long side there is going to be 3 doors (still have some framing to do) one 6’ or so door on the left and then two 9' doors on the right with a dividing wall on the right of the 6' door. That will be a place to store coal (in bags) and outdoor tools. The two 9' doors will be for implements and cubs and storage shelves.

Looks like those trusses will be able to sustain quite a snow/wind load. Great job!
