I built this garden shed to hold potting supplies and lawn tools for my bonsai garden. It was a fun exercise playing with the nail gun and I didn't even stab myself. The shed definitely is not plumb or square, but it hasn't fallen over yet so I'm pleased.

If it's as sturdy as it looks, you've got an excellent shed for years to come. This is way better than what people in my country usually build for similar purposes. You should not compare your DIY work with the mass-produced designs.

Thank you. It's framed with 2x4s and placed on ground treated lumber, so I hope it'll last five or six years.
