Tub from an old washing machine. Gotta make sure is one of the old metal ones, tho'

This time of year, Sundays are always great days, weatherwise, in a liberal conspiracy to force me to miss football or be trapped indoors. Once again, I overcome, with an extension cord and cable splitter.


That is an AWESOME setup!

Big metal trash pickup day is this Saturday, everybody in town gets their stuff out early in the week. Drove around yesterday after work, saw a washing machine by the road, stopped and checked, yep, metal tub. Threw it in the back of the truck, I'll get the tub out of it after work today, put the rest back out roadside. Had an old hatchet there with it, kinda rusty, but grabbed that too.
 
:cheese:

I like the shed even better. Very nice.

Thanks, if you like the shed you should see the barn/garage! Going to try to build a matching woodshed sometime next summer. just have to find a spot in the yard where it looks good as well as gets sun and wind.
 
That has a classic New England charm to it. The paint colors are great too.



Pen- Did you have a hand building the catapult to ward off invaders on that patio? Sheesh.

Hard to miss what in another era would have been termed "a well turned ankle"

Ha, thanks for all the compliments guys, i didnt realize how much was going on in the picture when i posted it. The shed, the legs, the dog, the fire, all i saw was the fire!

I wish i could take more credit for the shed, we just bought the house in august, it was just one of the nice selling features for me.
