So I've been super busy lately selling our old house and buying another one moving etc.
I needed a shop and had been looking on Craigslist and Facebook market place trying to find a used 12x20. Found one and found someone to move it for me the guy told me be there between 2 and 4 o'clock 5 o'clock no show or call. Message him next day ask if he would be able to do it that day he said yes 4 o'clock no show or call again text guy asking if I need to find someone else. No reply 30 minutes later shows up with a shed on his truck not the one I was after and tells me he just had that one give to him and if he could set it in my yard he would go with me to get the one I wanted. Get there he looks it over shows me couple things tells me he don't think it would make it. So I ask him what he would take for the one he left at my house he says $250. I get back to my house look it over he says he'll take $150 I say sold only half the size I wanted 10x12 but I have the metal 10 x 14 I can store parts. Needs some work I have already replaced the the bottom decking and replaced the roofing. Some paint and hook up some power to it next.

Finally had time to finish up the shop for the most part got. Got the outside painted this weekend with some paint that my boss was going to dispose of so free paint. So I maybe have little over $300 into the shed with the cost of shed and material for fixing the roof. I think it turned out ok.

So I have quickly ran out of room and decided to add 5 foot on the side so I can put my work bench and shelves there and just use the main part for bikes and a spot for the bike stand. Wiil probably end up needing more room later but I think it will work for now.
