Ideas for building a platform for sheet metal?
I got a 8'x10 'metal shed in good condition for free (Only cost me 5 hours to remove and a lot of elbow grease). The original owner, mounted on untreated wood placed on the bare ground, which ran as well as you can imagine. I like to build a proper base. The location is on a gentle slope so that water spilling from the forest to her backyard. Because this, I think it must raise from 3 "to 6". This will also allow air flow to help dry the bottom after a rain, I think. I have read some items, but would like some advice on the design community. Brick or cinder block piers? Spacing? Plywood or 2×4? Horizontal or 45 ° tilt? Casita contain push lawn mower and other common tools of outdoor activities – no charge especially high. Thanks for any insight it offers.
With a little work you can do this really cheap with wooden pallets. It used to be wooden pallets were always taken a copy of the freight companies – now just leave you with the delivery and did not want him back. Look for some good paddles -* They are usually oak. This is the so just need to cut to fit 2 sides of the ship. Not even need to screw. Now place sheets of plywood grade 1 / 2 "exterior on the top and screw the plywood onto the pallet. Have been built in air space under the shed of about 4." Works great!
