Sheds

[Monky]

Thanks. A few of the local Trinidad guys have told me that this shed is nicer than a lot of houses in town.

I'd probably agree not even seeing your shed.

The stove in it is very nice. Right sized for the reloading room. And it has windows with a view.

My neighbor had a 10x12 Tuff Shed delivered a couple of summers ago. The construction quality was pretty bad. The 4x8 siding had gaps and missed nails.

I'd rather build my own but that's just me.

Unless you own,on't put on concrete base. Even if you do, NO pad. That's considered a permanent fixture and a higher property tax, in some areas. Since you rent i would suggest a single axle enclosed trailer. Yes it's more than you have or are looking to spend. However it's MOBILE. Plus doubles as storage.

This one is THE Deal. Already wired with cabinets etc.

Why an enclosed trailer besides what i already mentioned?

If you move, a "shed' is a hassle to move. The EC goes where you do. If you decide you want to put it somewhere else in the yard, you can. Once a shed is up they are a PITA to do anything with.
IF the town / city zoning officer discovers you have a wired shed, they can & will fine you for a non -permitted living space. Same for taxes, way more, once it's considered "habitable"

We have a few sheds on the property. The spousal unit said No More. Why are we paying for something we can't take with us AND if we have to bug out, a trailer is ready when you are.

Just my $ 0.02

Good points about the pad and power, never crossed my mind. But I think that's bullshit. A man should have the right to set his garden/tool shed on concrete to keep it from rotting into the dirt, and have electricity in it for lights and a couple of outlets for tools and chargers, etc. Neither of those should qualify it as "livable quarters" or whateverthefuck they call it. It's still a goddamn shed.

My shed sits on dirt, and rabbits have dug under it and set up house. Now what? The city gonna fine me for having livestock or some shit?

Bobs shed. Good reason to have a stove.

I have a 24 x 30 pole barn 9 3 car garage) and the cty considers it ashed and taxes it as such, $50 annually. Guy down the block 2 car garage, wood frame (just like a shed) on a pad and he gets hit $300 annually.

Alot of people over look enclosed trailers. Which IMHO, with all the talk on here about BUG out vehicles BOB's etc why not utilize a trailer? Hook up and GO!. vs loading this and that wasting potential valuable time.

Yep, my shed and "my" snow. With this type roof, not too much danger of snow caving the roof.

A mansard roof is good for that and there is more room for hay bails in the loft.
