Here is my rebuild thread on a small 5' x 8' shed. After my garage rebuild, my wife found it difficult to park her car in the garage without coming close to the steel cabinets. I also found when I needed anything from the cabinets, I had to ask her to move her car out to access the cabinets. For these reasons, I decided to move the cabinets to my existing storage shed, which is just around the corner of the garage. As I surveyed the shed, my foot fell through the floor, and I discovered termites have had a feast, requiring me to rebuild from the ground up. Here is a picture of the existing shed....
These are the storage cabinets I want to remove from the garage....
This is what the shed looks like now, after removal of the rotten wood......
Here is another angle of the roof line, which is the only thing the termites did not eat....
The following two pics are where the subterranian termites were having a field day, and after applying 18 gallons of poison...
This is the existing wiring for the shed, so I can install a few overhead lights and a plug for other needs....
Tomorrow I have a crew coming over to sawcut some of the sidewalk, dig a footing, and pouring about one cubic yard of concrete for the floor. The guy I selected does great work (my son used him for some concrete work) and was almost as cheap as me doing it myself. I'm considering having him rebuild the walls with concrete blocks for more safety and security because a few cabinets hold all my reloading supplies, gunpowder, and extra ammunition.
Anyone have other ideas?
