My wife is a professional photographer. This was originally my idea. She's got a few more sections to do. The green ones are going to be one graffiti and the other a stucco look. The typar one is already finished with cedar shakes and a fake door.

48 solar panels show up Monday. This is a BIG south facing roof that's nice and high out of the shade. 10 cords inside on pallet racks, right up to the 14' height or so.

Just thought I'd share the pic. Barn's been up 9 months or so. This wall has been typar since then. I think it's code in Maine that you have to have one wall that stays typar for at least 6 months. :)

Holy Kamoly, that is the KING of all wood sheds! :eek: I thought I was gonna see wreaths, ribbons and curtains all over the front and wicker furniture with froo-froo cushions, but I like that concept. Will look much nicer than a plain-jane steel biulding when it's done.
lol, where's the beater car on blocks? c'mon now...
I have plenty of extras if you need one... ;lol
 
That's pretty boss. You could house a mother load

I could.. but I still gotta cut to length and split. 15-16 is done. Having trouble getting motivated to split right now for 16-17. It's all there in logs. Maybe I'll get motivated after I shuffle the outdoor stuff and cover. That's this Monday before the solar panels show up.
 
Sorry, but That is not a woodshed. Or any kind of shed IMO.
Very nice though!
 
I remember when you posted a pic of just the foundation, was jealous then and even more so now.
But thats not JUST for wood stoarage, right??

Would love to be splitting, my stove is getting installed Monday and I'm getting 3 cord split delivered. Crossing my fingers that the wood is ready to go this year. Or I'll be burning Envi bricks this season
 
That's not a woodshed that's a WAREHOUSE ;lol :eek:

I call it a 'toy barn'.

It's not quite this neat at the moment. But you get the idea. I had plans for this barn for 6 years since we moved into the house. Took a while for me to be able to do it. Still need to put solar panels on (this week)

Then attic insulation and overhead radiant shop heaters.

Probably won't get to that till next winter. I think my 'ok honey' is all used up with my wife for a while. :)
