Got the shed painted this weekend. Next weekend I hope to seal the deck and get back to the car working on the jig!
July 8th, 2012 Update
No updates – been busy with other projects. Currently working on painting the shed (hope to be done next weekend), then need to seal the deck. Been trying to get out to the garage to work on the Camaro as time permits, but any serious work is at least a couple of weeks away!

Still need to paint the shed, but the shingles and everything else is done:

Got all of the posts measured, dug, and in-place… After the two of us using a post-hole digger on one hold each for about an hour, we rented an auger to do all of the rest in the same amount of time!
For the shed, here are the 8×8’s leveled out for the floating skid foundation:

Memorial Day Weekend
We received 1.5 inches of rain within an hour this weekend. Some came in the basement which I was able to wipe up. This is the side of the house I need to build up to improve the drain flow:
I also had another limb fall off my tree. I plan on having the tree cut down as it is right beside the garage. This was on Saturday and I was able to cut it up and haul it to the recycling center for disposal before they closed for the holiday weekend:
Last but not least, I realized my regulator was bad on the air compressor, so I re-did it adding a shut-off valve, water trap, and a new regulator all from Lowes. Checked it out to ensure it all works properly and am ready to go now! That is why I had trouble with my tools is because the psi was wrong!
Next weekend will be working on the new deck and shed!
