Talking tiny's shed build

Okay folks, most of the regualrs here are aware of my little shed building project that I have been working on. Here are some pictures of the progress so far and I will continue to update this as things progress.

Background information: 12' x 20' shed/barn/small garage what ever you want to refer to it as
10/12 roof pitch; 6' wide x 6'-6" double door and a 3'-6" x 6'-6" door; 3 3'x2' windows.

At some point I will be running 100 amp electric service to it.

So here are some pictures:

This is about 3 weeks ago after the last 5 piles of fill had been graded off.

Taken this morning... this is how the framing looks after working by myself and hand nailing everything for a couple of weekends.



If you look to the right, you can see the trusses that were also built standing up by a tree.

Plans for this weekend are to finish a couple of headers, double up the top plate and start installing some of the siding to help stiffen the structure up.

Enjoy
