You could do a small stone bunker with an extended roof. So you could load and unload your steel without entering the structure.

yeup... if the bottle go off i want it to be sturdy to absorb it... wooden structure wouldnt survive.. ntm i want it hurricane sturdy as well... steel wouldnt bother me being stolen if it happened... the gas would... thats why id like it secure..

roof i figured id do with wood and shingles... was thinking of trying to avoid the slabbing somehow lol.. maybe patio stone floor... lol dunno... may build a sectional thin floor... someways id like it on some sort of raised deck... just enough so its not sitting on the ground and dont have to worry about water seeping up from under it...
