    It will be a good time putting it together. I think the build on slab will be a nice touch as opposed to building on concrete blocks. My yard is not flat in that area so having someone come in and do that slab and make sure it was level saved me quite a bit of time and effort.

    yeah, thats one of the things that has been holding me back, where I want to put it, there is a good 3+ft drop in the area from one end to teh other, need to bring in a bunch of stone first and then get someone to pour the slab, and its a tricky place to get a truck even close to it
    so, keep saying, Next yr I will do it LOL
    but it needs to be up sooner than next yr I think
    never have enought storage space it seems

    I had roughly 36" of drop that had to be corrected. It took two tri-axle loads of fill dirt plus digging out the top soil to get the area leveled out and looking half way decent.

    sounds liek we had /have about the say pitch then LOL
    and I was guessing it was going to take 30+ ton to fill it in to level as well
    , I plan to use 2A stone for fill, cheaper and well, was guessing it would pack tighter and hold overall better with lots of rain and snow
    I just priced it today and its 5 bucka ton, NOT counting delivery
    so, will see about gtetting the project started here sooner
    working on rebuilding a trailer now, waiting on an axle,
    so, one thing at a time is what i SHOULD do, but who know';s

    holla the electric will come later so I can avoid code inspections. I plan to build to code within reason.
