Nice shed build. I have watched several of your videos and just finished the 3 part on the ballast box.

I知 doing the exact same thing.
I to have a slope down into the pad. Did you do anything special for water runoff like a French drain or stem wall in the outboard end?

Edit, after watching the video I see the details for drainage with the drain system.

👍 Yes and the French drain has worked well.

Looks pretty good. How did you flash the roof to the existing building?

I've quit using treated 4x4's for anything taller then a deck railing, and even then it's iffy. I've found that it's too big of a gamble on which ones will remain strait and how many will bend, bow or twist on you. I went up to 4x6's for a project and had one of them bow on me so badly that I had to replace it in only 3 months. Now I only use 6x6's so I never have to do it again. They also allow me to notch for my beams and not rely on bolts to support the load.

I cover that in the video, but basically it’s a piece of flashing made for this application, ordered with the panels and sealed to the siding with flashing goo.

I hear you on the 4x4s. These have been fine so far. I used 6x6s on my front and back porches and only one developed a very slight bow.

I dont watch videos, so I was just curious since the pictures didnt show it.
