Ash and Giovanna's Garden Shed: Almost Done!

It's been a couple of weeks since we have posted on the progress of Ash and Giovanna's shed.  We have been out twice since our last post.  The roof is on, the plywood sheathing is up, the window and door are in and Danielle installed the dry stack stone piers at the mid-point of the structure.  The remaining punch list includes steps, exterior fencing (which will give a good surface area to attach the cob to that Ash and Giovanna plan to apply to the exterior) and some odds and ends.

Greg installing the PT 1'x6" door jamb.
To his right is one of the doors we got when Peter's Design Works closed.

The roof hasn't been easy. Securing in sections (not waiting until the end) is the key to tin roofing!

The three sided outdoor section.  And already in use!

 Greg installing window trim.  With the walls up and window in the interior feels just right.  Instead of being deep (6') it is wide (10') putting everything within two steps of the door.  When it comes to sheds, access and convenience are key and we think this one does just that.

Cutting the 15 lite door down to size.  It was probably once in the parlor of a historic Durham home, now it will add some flare to the shed and spend its days looking out on Ash and Giovanna's beautiful garden.

 

  Shocker!  We finished in the dark on the roof!

    

Next post should wrap this project up!
