Finished the floor!!


3/4" tongue and groove floor is down and painted. I had to paint because it might sit a while exposed to the elements. When the building is done I,ll just put another coat on for the final stage.

(update 12/07/2025) The shed is still standing but some horrible stupid mistakes were made. DO NOT BUILD THE FLOOR LIKE I DID !!!

See how I made the plywood the foundation for the walls ..this was a no no. What I should have done was built the walls and then add the plywood floor. Also don't skimp out. Just build the whole shop out of pressure treated wood. I had two disasters. The first was the poor flashing job I did which caused a leak, and because the roof was slanted , it leaked behind the drywall over to the one side of the shop which had a long bench on it , this helped hide the leak which was probably leaking since the day I built it. We also had to floods. So I have replaced the floor, I have rebuilt one wall and and now in the process of rebuilding the second longer wall. And I have to shell out a lot of money to have some (professional) redo the roof for me. I am getting too old to mess with roofs anymore...goodby money, thanks for the short stay !!
