I didn't see this posted anywhere, my apologies if it is. My buddy sent me a link to this thread. So much awesome. Do we have any CPers in the area who can snap some pics?

You have to read the thread before watching the videos, allow for at least an hour.

Scariest part about that to me is, I built a 'fort' when I was about 12, with salvaged materials from back alleys etc, that makes that it look really bad.

It's so funny watching him try to lift that piece of plywood into place near the end of the first time lapse.

How does a guy, that obviously has no idea what he is doing, decide to try and build a 16' square shed from scratch?

If you don't know how to do it, it always seems easy. "Why I could design a bridge for like, $10,000 and it would only take me an hour!"

I just sent the Shed of Doom twitter to Mike Smith (Bubbles from TPB). I figure they might be able to do something with that
