Warburtonplayer, nice shop...
Lowes must love having your free billboard during construction. BTW, I wish we had a Lowes nearby, nearest is about an hour away, home depot is 40 minutes. Lowes seems cleaner, brighter, more willing to answer questions (My wife says all women refer Lowes for those reasons), prices are about same, some high, some low. Didn't notice where you're from, any need for heat in building? I ask because I am almost done with mine, hope to have pics up soon. Looks awesome, but if it is a tractor shed, why is tractor only half covered?! I have read over and over , build 50% bigger than you think you will need, I just can't afford what I "need"!
I have to share with wife's van, as I could only justify it as a "barn" if she could park there too!
Amazing what TBNers can do, thanks for sharing...

I built the building just to have it as a workshop I put the leanto on for the tractor. I had so much stuff inside my big garage I had no place to build and work on stuff with 2 cars in the garage. I have all my tools and equipment in the new workshop plenty of space to work on things.
Nice job! Makes me a bit jealous for some level ground....
Building/framing, etc is not something I've ever done, really-- I'm building a movable chicken house now.... it's working, but it's taking me forever!! I'm learning, but it's wicked slow. Congrats on a great "few weekends"!
If you get snow where you are, you might consider closing in the rear of your lean-to; that's what I did with mine, and it seems to work very well.
