This is where I tend to hibernate when the wind somes sweeping down the plains and the temps. get too cool to enjoy a beer and a cigar on the patio! I call it my 'Gar Den Shed!
I'm in the process of putting up some paneling over the insulated walls, installing some electrical outlets, and building a bar, I mean, a "storage shelf" that is L shaped on two walls and merges into some shelving on the other wall.
It is only 10 x 12 but I have had as many as 4 guys in here and although it gets a bit smokey it's better than sitting out in the cold!

Thanks! I started building this this thing over two years ago but just couldn't bear to put junk in it! It has finally started to realize it's true calling!

It's got a couple of soffit vents, and the window can be opened a crack even when it is cold, so it is not too smokey. Maybe when I'm installing the fireplace and hot tub I can also add a new vent!! For now I'm on the lookout for some small leather rocker/recliners, or some comfortable bar stools!

Very nice shack! Pretty much along the lines of mine but I have more other stuff in there... :-)

LOL! I've got a good sized back yard. The slab/patio that the shed is on one corner of is 26' x 50', it was built as a sport court, but I converted it into a large patio, built some decking on part of it and had fake tile work sprayed into it with some kinda spray vinyl/cement concotion like they put around pools. I spend alot of time out there!

Very nice.... that would be awesome for the cold... I get the garage for my winter place of peace!
[Reply]

Awesome bro!

Very Nice!! I have a shed that I want to convert to "Cabana Havana". Currently such a mess no room to stand. :-)

Enjoy yours!

I just saw this... Great job! you even have a good sized patio to spill out onto when it gets warmer.

Exhasuting through the roof might work out well. Good for you!
[Reply]

Nice.:-)

Are you going to install anything for heat? My garage is unheated, and although it beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick, it can still get pretty chilly when the temp bottoms out. Something like your Gar Bar might be worth looking into. I'll loose some space but at least I could feel my toes.

I have a small electric heater in there and it takes off most of the chill. I still need a coat and my Harley blanket when it is really cold though! I was thinking about one of those table top propane heaters but I'd rather not worry about CO poisoning or burning the shed down!
