Ash and Giovanna's Garden Shed (Build, Day Two)

Today we went out to Ash and Giovanna's property in the afternoon to continue work on the shed...


Here's one of the cedar posts that will be holding up the roof overhang over the front of the shed:




And here's the details of where the post meets the concrete pier. The square of lumber between the pier and the post is pressure-treated wood, to avoid having any future problems with moisture at that connection.



All four posts are up, and we've started to put the plywood up.



Some context, within which to appreciate the humbleness of a garden shed:



Filling the excavated holes back in around the piers.



We worked carefully to put up all of the roof rafters at night:




Next is installing the metal roofing, and continuing to sheath the outside in plywood.
