Dont forget The Beer Fridge !

I might even think of a plastic urinal on the wall, with just a poly drain hose heading out into a covered sink hole in the woods.
Adds a touch of class.( just not High Class)

I envy your more than generous space! I used to have one whole basement room for my studio. We moved to a new (old) house, and my studio is now confined inside a pantry cabinet in the laundry/utilities room.

We have a good sized backyard and I wish I had your building skills to build my own shed. I look forward to seeing the finished product!
I have a friend that set up his studio in his big 35' rv. The rv was only $1000. I see trailers with bump outs for a few grand. Could make for a decent space. Maybe w a shade structure over it for summer? Not real soundproof but a cheap place to play.

Siding done. I had to shrink the photo a ton so it looks funky.
Now I just need to mud, paint, and install the flooring

Exodus of stuff to the upstairs to get out of the way to do downstairs is underway

I'm treating for bugs before continuing hopefully this weekend. Bathing in OFF too.

Chickens. They will keep the tick population down. Might stop laying eggs if they hear a few power chords though.

Actually getting chickens is on my agenda though this area isn't fenced in so they might not last long as we have foxes too.
I do plan on getting some for my fenced in back yard though

Thanks
The fence was my summer project last year.
I've painted the outside of the beds white recently to try to get a couple more years out of them (I built them early 2020 and used non treated woods of course).
Back in early 2020 a 2x4 was 2.50ish, so they were only $25ea bed.
I made some benches out of 2x4s too. Also about $25ea back then. The chairs were pre-cut, I just assembled them.

Very nice, Tim!

But I think you´re short on guitars... :D

Haha. I´d be happy with just 10% of what you have - I´m kind of minimalist about guitars -, but I admit it´s nice to see all those guitars together!

Enjoy it! - your shed and your guitars! Very nice job building it -.

:)

Haha, thank you. I had the shed built in November of 2019 so besides the frame and plywood, the rest has been a weekend project going on 4 years now. I took way too long.
As far as guitars, i've actually got my 10 acoustics upstairs too.
I have some overflow guitars on rack stands on both sides of the stairs too, about 10 or 15.
I plan to at least sell the stuff that doesn't have a space on the wall so I assume I'll sell about 20 eventually.
First I got to make pickups for the ones I'm keeping.

First rate man cave you have there. I had one on the farm that I put together myself, but since selling and buying our new home I have no man cave. The garage works okay but I am contemplating having a stand alone garage built but it is so hard to find someone to do it.

Not only that, but then you gotta deal with the permits.
I was lucky I got it prior to the 2021 hike in wood prices.
I wish I had done the foundation and frame/roof myself too but I knew that part needed to be done quick so I just hired a company to do it

Permits and higher property taxes kick in due to the improvements. Don't get me started. LOL

Dude - I thought that was a pic of a small music store!

Looks awesome!
