Got on the kick of eating home grown food. Thought why not do it through the winter. So this is how I have been spending my afternoons after work. There is still plenty of work that needs to be done. I will have to make a gutter system on front, completely finish the interior, more ventilation for when windows are shut, rain water system, etc, etc. The list goes on. But its been a fun project. Look forward to seeing what all I can produce when its in the 30's.

Will do start to finish pics, with some descriptions if needed.

They are all cell phone pics, so some poor quality.

Initial chosen build site



Mock up plans



Let the work begin



Chipping away old concrete




Making front frame


Did have to get a buddy to come help me set front frame

Made a 6" wide slab 3-4" deep around bottom of frame. Hope to prevent critter intrusion

More siding





Here was the fun part. The windows I used were free. They didnt exactly work correctly with the trim I was using so had to do some router work



Making sure everything is up to par

Paint time, the worst time







First time I measured wrong on over hang, and decided to redo the front of supports. Didn't have any help so I had to be creative





For the life of me I could not find or purchase flashing that worked correctly with the corrugated panels. So I had to make my own





Time for the roof

Well this is the current progress. Still have more trim work, paint work, then the complete inside. It has been enjoyable.

Sure this will bore some of the construction guys but I had fun.

Thanks for looking

That sucks. You didn't happen to buy the panels from Lowes did you?

I believe that's the case. I read somewhere that Lowes and Home depots venders supply them with materials with different specs to keep the clients shopping at the same place.

Makes sense, the wood flashing actually came out pretty good and looks to match the shop better IMO

Just the regular stuff John

Few different types of tomatoes, bunch of different peppers, zucc, squash, cukes, maybe green beans.

The hard part, which I am going to attempt will be onions, okra, potatoes. Don't know to well how they will work
