I still have some finishing touches to add, but we are moving stuff into it already. I am working on some shelving using the wood from the forms and some left over 2x4s from the fence we did last summer. Some might call this "cheap" I prefer waste not, want not. I'll add pictures of the shelving on Tuesday provided I finish them by then.
My thoughts on the shed

After finishing it up, however, I will say it is somewhat stronger than I would have imagined. I know, and some reading this do as well, these sheds will collapse under the weight of a good snow storm. I am betting I will not have to worry about that here in San Diego.
