The shed is up on what I hope is a somewhat more secure foundation. There’s a heavy concrete block under each corner and in the middle of each side, and a thick piece of timber runs under frames along two of the outside walls and down the middle. I could have run timbers around all four sides and criss-crossed two through the middle but honestly I think that’s way overbuilding it, even for me. What I’ve got here seems to do the trick just fine. At the very least, it won’t be settling into the ground again for another 15 years or so.

And the wasps never bothered me once, even though I was climbing in and out of the shed all weekend long.
