Hoping someone on here has some experience. I have been trying to put up an arrow 8 by 10 ft metal shed. Been trying to get the roof panels up but a lot of the holes are not lining up. Following the instructions right. I don't understand why. Since anyone done one of these and had this problem?

The most important thing is getting the floor VERY level and square... (that's perfectly matching measurements at both diagonal cross corner measurements...measured at the same time... they MUST be all within 1/8" of each other.)

What if it's a round shed?

I have three methods to get this kind of thing done. I will list them from most-effective to least effective.
1. Pay someone to do it.
2. Cry, kick, and scream until hubby gets upset and does it for me.
3. Put on a dress and makeup and play the helpless-woman to see if any man will do it for me.

Hope this helps.

I tried hiring someone to help me, but the guy who runs the outfit fail to send someone with experience! I knew more than he did. THAT'S BAD!

Well it is finished. It took only 2 guys and at least 26 hours to do! It's not pretty but it is up! One the hardest jobs I ever tackled!

Female curiosity. Did you scream, kick and yell to get the other guy's attention?


I am proud for you though. I know when that itch of "I got to get this done" hits, the huge victory when it is done.

Gotz pictures?

Didn't yell to much! Sorry no pictures, don't have a smart phone. This a dump one! When the holes didn't match up we made our own with a lot of weather proofing tape!!
