Yeah so renting storage sucks the ****. We decided to build our own shed. Keep in mind ive never swung a hammer in my life. So here we go...
Found some pallets. If they are strong enough to hold a fridge, surely they would work as a floor for th shed?
This one was a bit warped...
I am short. Wes is tall.
Un-warping the pallets.
Laying out some moisture barrier plastic.
Joseph started the front and rear wall frames today.
Yeah its not perfect. Im just gonna store ---- in it so who gives a ----.

Seriously, though. Hitchhikkr stated he has never swung a hammer at a nail before, and my carpentry experience is three weeks on a framing crew 12 years ago - I quit when we got to the roof and being 15 feet off the ground fucked with me too much, tried to deal for three days until it became apparent I sucked and wouldn't get over it. We wandered around Lowes for ten minutes and didn't see anything rated for exposure to the elements and just grabbed the $8/sheet stuff for the flooring. We'll use the $5/sheet stuff for the walls and roof, since that ---- doesn't get stood on.
Bitch.

Use 3/4" sheathing for the floor, single layer, stager the joints when possible. Use 1/2" OSB to wrap the walls, 5/8 OSB for the roof if you do 16" centers it's safe. They make a coating you can put on OSB to seal it from the weather. It's thick green paint ----. It last for YEARS. Very good ----.
I would seriously redo the foundation though. If anything get some torn bags of concrete at lowes for 80% off retail, some cheap treated 4x4's, and some 2x8's for floor joices and build something that won't fall over.

I understood the rest. It's OSB on the flooring, FWIW.
