Every Tool Needs a Shed
Garages are for Cars
We just recently bought a house. The house has a front yard and a backyard, each of which has grass, trees and shrubs. A lawnmower, hedgetrimmer, weedeater and various other implements of vegatative destruction are thus required (not to mention my wood-butchering tools)
SO
A shed is required.
Back Gate
The gate is open and the 'tuff-shed' guys have arrived. At first I thought about building a shed myself until I checked the prices. It's actually cheaper to buy one that make it.
One guy, the one bending over, pretty much assembled the pre-fabricated shed by himself. The other guy is his helper. The helper didn't do a whole lot.
First...the subframe for the floor.(treated lumber)
then cement blocks to sit it on and make it level
then the floor
Then the walls
(that one kid is STRONG!)
The boss-man's other worker showed up...they went into hyper drive. They had other jobs to do when this one was done.
and it's
DONE
Elapsed time from when they arrived until they left....about two hours.
I talked to the 'boss', the strong kid who did most of the work He said he was a contractor for tuff-sheds. He was about 19 years old and said he and his crew were they youngest of about 40 crews that Tuff-Shed had working for them. They were also the FASTEST (did good work too...I inspected it). He said he usually did two or three sheds a day, he liked to make about $1,000 a DAY...(he gave his helper $100, the other worker got paid more)
Not bad.
Best I could tell all he had invested was a pickup truck, a two axel trailer, and about $1,000 dollars worth of tools (maybe less)
Other millennials could take a lesson from him.
