Beyond the fact that there's absolutely no reason for you to post this, I'm not sure what you're looking at. I'm not a pro but I've been building sheds and things for decades and based on the pictures here I don't see low quality. Maybe I'd put more joists in the roof but Portland doesn't get a ton of snow so I'm sure it's fine. $2k is a fine price for that slab, especially compared to the pain of lifting 80lb bags of concrete yourself all day. People shouldn't be afraid of spending the money on a pro if they've got the money to spend.

Maybe he could have saved a few thousand with different subs (maybe) but your comments are nonsensical. I see tons of janky builds people post on Reddit and this is not one of them. You should spend your commenting time over there.



That you think HN is any better than Reddit is funny.


That you don’t is a problem.

The expectation is higher.

PS I was saying that $20k is too little to spend for this type of thing - not a great price for this result.


i think it is pathetic that your rebuttal to a comment you dont like is go back to reddit

youare the same type that tell foreigners to go back to their country because you dont like being called stupid more than you dont like actually being stupid20k for this is a joke like yoi


And he built a $20k shack with asphalt shingles and T1-11 siding. A fool and his money are quickly parted is the current state of building in America.

It looks poor, it is poor.

But we also have a whole nation who thinks paying rent, an HOA, who can take your home from you, is a good idea so everyone can look equally poor together in lower middle class homes with textured walls.
