Odd shaped shed built

[Ilya]

Hi, just wanted to share my recent journey. Took me exactly 3 months on weekends minus some weekends off travelling.

I had a rather awkward spot behind my garage that is a bit shady to growth anything, and I also needed a space to store my garden tools, wheelbarrows, etc.
So, buying was not an option.
I started with digging a shed base, filling with aggregate, compacting, paving.
Then moved on to the simple framing style top, bottom and walls. The challenge was - building it close to the fence, hence had to clad it in situ Added some vents on the back walls, as they are pretty much shaded from wind and rain by the fence.
Was cladding a painting the back walls bit by bit, as I would not be able to do that once a wall is complete.

Finished off with felt and added some gutters.

Again, not a piece of art, but a rather odd shaped structure with not a single pair of walls at right angle))

I did similar but open ended for a neighbour a good few years ago. It was a right pain.

A good dry storage area now!

That is excellent work and great use of an irregular space.

How did you manage to install/secure the external boards after putting up the verticals?
I had a similar problem on my own shed, and the only way I could come up with, for me, was to construct the back wall outside the shed, and then to manhandle it into place. Which wasn't ideal. It was HEAVY and it was AWKWARD and it wasn't as rigid as I'd hoped which made it doubly so. Makes me cringe and judder just thinking about it...
