I just turned my 4×8 deer blind mounted on a trailer into a chicken coop
I was thinking of doing just that. I can just see the damn thing tumbling around my pasture.

Ours is going on another piece of property that should never get sold. Doing it so we have something to sleep in incase the property we hunt now gets sold. Going to insulate it, solar, loft for storage and a few cots.I just turned my 4×8 deer blind mounted on a trailer into a chicken coop

I pulled mine to my side of our place. It was over on my uncles side where it floods during hunting season and is a bitch to get to it and my feeder so now I really don't need it. I have a few 40ft power poles I kept when they changed them out here. Im going to cut one in half and bury 5-6ft of it in a group of trees a few hundred yards behind my house and mount my bow stand to the remaining 15ft instead.

My shed is not on a pad and therefor not a permanent structure, if you put it on a concrete pad it classifies it as permanent (at least here it does).

Ordered a couple 6'x2' Fleximount shelves for the front wall of the garage. Need to get this thing organized and get everything off the floor. Also need to hang the WallControl panels I've had sitting in a closet for a year and a half as well as the storage bins I've had in the box since Christmas. Shelves wont be here until the end of next week but maybe I'll get the rest of it knocked out this weekend between the other shit on my list. Still need to get up in the attic and finish running the electrical for the wall mounted fan as well.

Nice! I was eyeing up portable garages prior to covid. Something like 12' x 26' just to get by and avoid taxes.
I outgrew my 10x10 in a couple years. Even with the 4.slow being moved out of it last year and put into the truck I still figured out how to fill it so I can barley walk in in.
Same here. Freaking tax man.
I also pulled a permit so it's now on my plot plan....well kinda. In one swoop I had a rubber stamp put on drawings showing my "new deck" that was already built, deleting a 4' tall chain link fence and putting a 6' tall wood fence to the front of the house (chain link ran to the back), and my shed.
Also if I wanted to go any larger than 10x10 for a shed I'd need a variance. Luckily I can do a portable garage but it need to be under 400sqft and no taller than 14'. I'd hate to drop it on a stone bed because we have termites pretty bad up here, but I pay enough in taxes as is. Prob never happen anyway, but I dream of a garage someday even if it's a portable small one.

If my shed ever goes flying I fear for whoever it lands on. Any chemical I don't want to store in the house goes into the shed. Along with all my compressed gas, charcoal, firewood, oh and about 30 gallons of gas along with a bunch of fertilizer and bug spray. Also all my used motor oil, paint, and I store all my camp fuel out there. Been letting the old Tacoma gas evaporate on it's own so that keeps some of the bugs out of it
When I crack open the doors I make sure I do not have a lit cig in my hand for fear of..........

Its still a work in progress. The deer blind will be where I build the nest boxes. I'll make it so yiu can open the windows and reach in to grab the eggs. The front section is 20×20.I would like to see pictures of this

Ok, thanks. I will definitely have to use some thicker wire, damn raccoons and the foxes here are destructive.
