Down Came The Shed

The new larger shed has been ordered, with tentative delivery scheduled May 16th. So, it's time to get cracking on the old one.

While cleaning it out, I found these little b*st*rds making short work of the lumber I stored in the shed.


Doors are off. Time to get serious.


One of the tools for the job, my 25 year old Sawzall. Also, an 8lb BFH, the Jeep and the JD.


Time to rock n' roll.


That didn't work so well. Missed a stud. Moved the shed about 3' while Mrs. C split a gut.


Next try did the trick. Set the Jeep up ninety degrees to the previous pull and gave a yank. However, it started raining about this point.


Now the hard work starts. Did I mention it was raining.


The only real casualty in the whole operation was the trash can in the above pic. The shed rolled over before splitting apart and hit the can. I spent the rest of the morning busting up stuff into smaller sections and dragging those with the JD to a future bonfire site. Need to cut up the floor today then start site prep next weekend.

I'll need the week to recover.
