To make room for a shed. I started this today, but have been planning it for a while now. I'm looking to get a 200sq ft shed. I shaved down part of the slope underneath the maple tree to make it flatter so when the trucks back up with gravel they wont flip over into the ditch. Also when the truck with shed on the trailer backs up, it wont do the same.
Took about 4 hours to dig it all out with a shovel. Good work out today.
Here's some before and after pix....

So, is this going to be a new shop space? More wood storage?

It's for all the stuff in my garage. Old work tools, not sure I'll use em again. But just in case I get another construction job, I'll still have em. Then once the garage is cleared out, that'll be my new shop. Much bigger than the 6x12 Area I'm in now.

Looks like a good project and a lot of hand labor. Are you sure you are not building one of those she sheds? I don't know where that concept came from but it's sure catching on. I'm afraid next summer after my shop is built I may be having to build one. She calls it a gazebo but it is to be screened in and my grill is prohibited, sounds like she space to me.

Finished up a restoration of an old wheelbarrow. I used parts from 2 of em, and bought a double wheel kit and new metal handles. I used some teak for the wedges....
