The Shed Saga

I've had a couple of friends spending a lot of their time over here helping me out with the shed build and clearing up a load of my junk, and there's a lot of junk. The shed is now fully insulated, and all joints have been taped. The doors have not been insulated with the foil coated bubble wrap and will be insulated with polystyrene to help add a bit more rigidity and thickness. This should enable me to fit more effective draft excluders instead of the stick on strip of foam type that eventually just degrade.
I'm waiting on their next visit to have them come to the store with me and load up the sheets of wood that we will be using to board out the majority of the shed. I'm thinking about using some more substantial sheet over the bench area to enable me to hang french cleats to utilize for more shelving, tool hangers etc.
I did have a message about the front axle assembly that was supposed to be here before Christmas, that it should be getting here at some point in Feburary, still no major rush as we aren't anywhere near finished with the tool shed.
Hope fully there will be more interesting updates coming in the not too distant future, but for the mean time, sheds, health, family commitments and the imminent arrival of chickens are taking president leaving me with little time.
