shed up where?.......

 
the goal was to get this shed up on this trailer....but how one may ask? with the use of concrete blocks, leverage, gears and pulleys, and of course uncle Nate's help. Story line: this shed was donated to Anderson Property's by sister #4 and her hubby, it seems they had no need for this outbuilding having plenty of storage elsewhere. being that daddy Dave has a few rentals he thought this would be a great bonus feature for a renter. the problem is how to relocate to the property with minimal cost and frustration.

as darkness sets in the process is well  underway. here the front of the shed is lifted and blocked. this was done with just some 4x4's and leverage.

once the front sleds have reached trailer height, the trailer is backed into place and a winch is attached. this went well for a couple of feet but we needed to lift the back to make the process easier, so back to the 4x4's and leverage.

here the back has reached trailer height and daddy Dave ditched the winch and just hooked it to his truck, pulling it the rest of the way.

here's a pic from the back

finally its up and on the trailer, with a couple of things left to do. replace a couple of 2x4's along the bottom and patch a spot on the roof then a pressure washing and strap it down, then a trip across town for a drop off. but as of now it will sit high on the trailer, until daddy Dave grabs a spare moment to do some repairs. its as if the trailer was made just for this shed it fit exactly, length and width.

how did i attach the tow strap someone may ask? well i drilled a hole with a spade bit the same size as a couple of scrap pieces of pipe i had lying around. stuck the pipe through the hole and then looped the strap around hooking it to itself. in this pic you can see some of the 2x4's in need of replacement, but overall shed is in good shape its even wired for electrical.
