The Gods have spoken...

Build the man den in the tree.

That'll buff right out!! :D

Seriously though, sorry to hear about the shed. It's sweet lookin' :tu

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

Sorry about the damage! Glad it didn't deposit that bad boy through your house. :ss

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

That sure sucks... On a side note - there are no trees over my man-shed... :D

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

That sucks man. It shows how impressive mother nature is though. Be glad it was the shed and not your house. Good luck with the repairs.

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

sorry to hear it!

Just putting it out there, your homeowners insurance will cover that under your other structures coverage, might be one way to go...

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

That's what us hillbillies call ventilation.

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

Watch out. I might take you up on that.

They did. And were very nice about it.

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

On account of it being a 12' shed and the gutters only came in 10' sections and Home depot was out of the connector pieces, but the downspout piece could be used as one, and I didn't want to leave it for any length of time without gutters, so this is how it ended up and I am just a wee bit defensive about it because I think the same damn thing every time I look at it.

But it is just a shed, after all.

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

So why'd you put the downspout in the middle of the wall and not the corner?
:D;)

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

Cuz I had one 10' piece, one downspout, two endcaps, and one pice cut to bring the whole shebang to 12'. I didn't have a piece to connect the two gutter pieces other than the downspout. The endpieces didn't fit on the downspout, so it couldn't go on the very end anyway, at least without cutting another small section of gutter to use to connect them. So I used the downspout as the connector.

Now I definitely have to redo the gutter. And now it bothers me more than the hole in the damn roof. :fl AAARGH

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

If I were you I would redo the gutter.

IMPORTANT SHED UPDATE

I had a free weekend where the weather was right so I have begun to fix my shed. Yes, I know it was damaged six months ago. That's how I roll.

Day 1- We Begin:

Mrs. Tikihut paints/protects the wood underneath the siding in preparation for the cross-hatch installation.

I look at the doorway and ponder steps.

Tomorrow: Steps are finished. Cross-hatch installed. Tear-down of damaged section begins. I make a third (and possibly a fourth) trip to Home Depot for another little tiny part that I forgot, but without which the project is at a stand-still.

Don't miss an episode.

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

Good luck! Missed this- glad nobody was hurt! And, at least it was the shed, not the house!

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

Alright!

Re: Holey shed. Rats.
 

Day 2:

Finished steps using composite decking material. Added cross-hatching to the bottom so Mrs. Tikihut can put in flower gardens at her leisure. (This is NOT my man cave. That's the Florida Room.)

Removed the debris from around the puncture wound and exposed this:

Day 3: Went fishing. Caught a dozen perch. Didn't look back.
