Howdy Lloyd!
Thanks for your interest in my shop build.
Just wanted to thank you for the knowledge you shared in Shelter, specifically about typical spans for girders and joists. I didn’t grow up with any building experience, and your work really helped me wrap my head around my first structure, pictured below.
Dorothy Ainsworth, Larry Haun, Scott Wadsworth (from the Essential Craftsman), and a whole bunch of local knowledge filled in the rest.
My instagram @philjacksonphoto has a whole story highlighted about the build, too.
Thanks again, Lloyd!! Hope to cross paths some day
Best,
–Phil (Jackson)

Real nice job. Well done.
A beautiful little building and very well made, but why the funny cut-outs on the rafter tails? I thought that something interesting was going to be fixed there.
Great video! Thanks for sharing
Congratulation!
Thumbs up for your advanced little workshop.
Very good proportions and a beautiful colordesign.
Love your tin roof skylight and the unique rafter-end design.
Shurly you will have great time working in and outside your shag,
as well the chickens will love to sneak underneath to cool down.
Thank you for sharing.
