Thank you so much!

For your sliding doors, put the second latch on the inside of the post, make it a cam that hooks into the door and rotates to tighten the door against the post. We used these at a historic sawmill I worked at years ago, they were made from threaded rod, and could be tightened with a nut on the cam, cheap and secure. Beautiful building!

Thanks - that sounds like a great idea.

Thanks so much! We put out about 400, give or take.

Hello! I am currently building a sugar shack (syrup shed) and would like to see your interior configuration...especially your cement step down around the arch. I want to build this right the first time. The step down seems like a good addition!

[@GardenHands]

Feel free to send us an email at: [e-mail] and we can get you the dimensions of our sugar shack. Exciting build!

Thank you!

Nice sugar house. Where did you get the black brackets? Are the black brackets in lieu of traditional post and beam joinery?

[@GardenHands]

Thanks for watching! The black brackets were from Menards and they are mostly decorative as there are larger screws under them that function as the main fastener.
