I just got the same one took me 3 days to put all together, it came with the floor frame kit but I prefer a concrete foundation... well done!

@lU2BE2 the floor frame kit is kinda redundant as you need it on something solid such as concrete anyways. Plus I figure it would be to tempting for mice and hornets and other pest to make a home under there. Thanks!

I have purchased the Canadian pent shed, 8x4. The illustration isn't too clear? Is this a French thing or Canadian. Looking at the instructions makes me wonder! I do appreciate your kindness and your time to show your video but it isn't enough for me. Happy new year!

@D000BY if have any questions I'll be happy to answer. You can also see the finished shed in part 2 if it helps at all.

@thedriver02 Hello there, I'm Carl. I was just looking at your shed video and was wondering if that is patio stone or patio pavers you used for the floor? I my self just purchased a metal shed, don't yet have it assembled. I was considering 16" or 12" patio stone as the foundation but not sure how many I'll need. It did come with the floor kit but would rather have something solid. Look forward to your reply.

@carolinakid99 Those are 24"x24" patio stones about 1.5-2" thick. This one also came with the floor frame kit but I definitely prefer the solid patio stones. And after one winter there is no noticeable heaving or cracking of the stones.

Word from the wise. I went through 2 steel storage sheds...this one. I finally decided to by an aluminum shed from Wally Watt, down here in Florida. They will make any size you want and deliver it assembled and place it in your yard...and take the old one away. These sheds will never rust.

[carolinakid99]

Well hello there and thanks. I believe thats what I'm going to use for the foundation on mine. Well thanks for the reply and info. I'll keep this handy.

I have now got my head around the 2D illustrations, it looks complicated because of the illustrations they have sent. Like yourself, I had to abandon the build due to rain so I'll try again tomorrow. A fine start to the new year but I did manage to get all the curtain poles drilled and plugged.

@iannve surprisingly all the holes lined up very well with this kit.
