Trash Shed Project Done
As I suspected, I only needed a few short hours to finish up the trash shed project. I completed the entire project early this morning when I installed some pavers and gravel inside the shed. I had one small issue yesterday. After all the torrential rain we had the other day and through the night, all the bare, unstained wood was swollen. The wood was so swollen that I had difficulty opening the doors... the wood latches were swollen shut... the wooden tongue between the doors was swollen and jammed into the mating groove on the opposite door... it was difficult opening that brand new shed! I disassembled most of those swollen parts, sanded them down and then reinstalled them. They are now slightly tight (because they are still slightly wet and swollen) but easy to operate. Since then, I've installed the roof and stained everything so it should not swell up like that again. Here is a shot of it from behind showing the new roof and looking toward our house...
