Cool its yours, Ill be around tomorrow other than going skiing in the morning if it snows a bunch.

 

It was at my house in show low. More of a joke as @prise was headed up to hangout and work with me for the weekend.

 

A big thank you to Alt-Alt for the recommendation of campsites in the ironwood forest. The area is great and to my surprise completely empty. FYI Silverbell Rd was recently repaved.

 

This group has not let me down on a site recommendation, once.

 

It is part of the key.. it uses a Toyota G chip key.

 

random question. .Any carpenters or framers here? I am looking to do a shed in my yard and looking at tuff shed and some others. Seems expensive and a relatively easy build. Just wondering if anyone here does that stuff as side work

 

tuff shed very expensive. There are some free plans on the internet. HOA? What part of town?

 

x2 on using free plans on the internet.

I went the home depot assemble your own shed route and was pretty pissed at myself I didnt save the money and just build it myself

 

yeah as the boys above said. If you have the know how and tools definitely build it yourself. You are paying inflated costs for lumber and really high labor rates for the tuff shed.

 

X2 on building yourself, I went with steel stud and some siding myself also fabed up a Big ass 40" door and some windows from a bargain place out here in The J. What part of town do you live?

 

As for windows, roofing and siding you can find on the cheap too. If you hit some of the roofing building companies such as ABC roofing, builders first source etc they may have windows the ordered in wrong sizes and are stuck with so will cut you a deal on them and roofing shingles companies end up with a couple dated bundles in colors that are no longer available so once again will give you deals to get them out of inventory.

 

Hey @llibrm Looks like they got around a foot of snow up near sunrise. Going to be good for some sledding and playing this weekend.

im up in north phoenix not too far from desert ridge. Did you build yours on a concrete pad or do a frame on blocks?

 

Treated 2x6 fame on blocks with 3/4" TnG plywood floor

 

@micah323 Here are a few from my phone. Found some plans online and went to Homedepot!

 

Soooooo close. Just need a few more hours then a trip to the exhaust shop.

 

Anyone know a good electrician near north phoenix/glendale area? Looking to get a run installed for a hot tub.

 

Nicely done!!!

@llibrm

 

Yeah, I saw this, but I'm not in a position to wire anything up at the moment. If @apexed wants to do the pipe and wire, I can help terminate it. But currently, I cant bend pipe or pull wire.

 

I'll PM you. Going to just be running it under the eaves and it's basically a straight shot to my panel. I don't mind running pipe and wire, I'm just not comfortable doing anything else with it.
