Well, I assembled a thing at least, an 8’x10’ vinyl shed. I went with a prefab job like this, because I hope to be able to add a stall onto my garage someday, so I wanted a shed that I could move.

It went together pretty well, a few hiccups. I did most of it myself, but thankfully a neighbor came over and offered to help when it was time to put the roof panels on (that really would have sucked by myself). All told it took 5-1/2 hours.

What’s the floor made out of? I placed concrete for a 10x20 shed for my sister about a month ago.

How much was the shed, minus the slab of concrete?

It was on sale for $900, but regular price is $1000.

The shed has a reinforced plastic floor, so I just put a leveler row of solid concrete blocks around the perimeter, and leveled put the middle with dirt and sand I had on site. A slab definitely would’ve been better, but I didn’t want anything that permanent.

Nicely done. Does it have cable or a dish?

No dish, just shovel.
