Hard to visualize the end product given only this photo. What’s the whole plan look like?
 
The block is for a sub floor? That’s always super handy for routing and re-routing of electrical.
 
So bout a 12'x10'... not bad wish I could change my 12x8 shed to a 14x20 to 24 but cant do it due to bad property line :nag:. Would cost a small fortune to fix.

They got tons of snows in the sierras as well its a good thing you guys are in some kind of epic drought.

Looking really good bill, you do some nice work :up:

What are your plans for the roof? Probably just the camera angle but it looks slightly slanted for flat?
