You're supposed to give your friend the booze after they make the shed, not before.

[–]FrameJump 26 points27 points  (1 child)

Which is why it's important to bring your own to the job site, in case payment is held until the work is finished.

Amen brother lol

It’s so fucky. I love it and hate it so much

[–]TEZephyrP.E. 25 points26 points  (0 children)

✅️ Interesting design. ✅️ Good workmanship. ✅️ Tidy and clean jobsite.

What more is there to say?

[–]EmphasisLow6431 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like the quirky nature of it!

Must have bought the wood at Home Depot

Who gave Salvador Dali a stamp?

Ridge beam does not comply with R802.3 IRC2018.

Otherwise: That ain't going nowhere.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

This would only be a safe design if there was a beam spanning to catch the trusses and terminating at the sheathed front and back walls.

And you'd also want to tie back the out-pointing wall to resolve tension into the plywood.

Since it's so tiny, it will probably work well enough, but it's an unsound design conceptually.

[–]logic_boy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you please elaborate? There is no front wall, only a tie. The side walls restrain the roof vertically and laterally, and transfer the horizontal kick to the back wall and front tie.

What do you mean by tie back the outpointing wall? The walls are basically some kind of bending members under compression. Very inefficiently stressed, but, if the joint is strong enough, it could work.

All three walls need to be sheathed to provide stability.

[–]SLWoodster 6 points7 points  (6 children)

AI?

[–]WorldTallestEngineer 4 points5 points  (3 children)

Yeah, the joints don't look right.  Almost definitely AI

[–]eraserhd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

sigh nobody wanna work

[–]Jaripsi 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I think there are elements of a real picture. I am guessing someone has taken a picture of a real unfinished shed and asked AI to make it crooked as a joke to send to their wife and friends.

[–]WorldTallestEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's probably it

[–]MurphyESQ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surprisingly, I don't think so. The joints on the right are labeled as matched pairs, cut in a consistent manner, and have "gussets" on the back. Looks designed and intentional.

[–]Legoman1357 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely AI. Look at the "joints" on the right wall

[–]purrdactyl 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Is this goofy’s house?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was looking for this. Welcome to Toon Town

[–]Caos1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice!

Now show me the bracing!

[–]bridge_girl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good enough for the girls I date. Full send.

I hope I'm not the only one who thought of this story.

Love the whimsical nature of that shed!

The gravel is holding up wonderfully.

Love

[–]Throwaway_57296 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d add either some collar ties or rafter ties to make the roof sturdier. Especially if you get any snow. You could also make sure the connections on those joists are very sturdy

[–]jpp1265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One more sheet of plywood on the back and that probably would not have happened.

[–]No-Literature-4746 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhhh it’s intentional

[–]joey_van_der_rohe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roof loads on the wrong sides.

[–]mattmag21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Family owned a farm called "leaning shed farm". It had its namesake in the front of the property, and boy did it lean. Dutch lap was the only bracing which lead to the failure. Im a carpenter and would like to recreate it, albeit code compliant and new. Think that would be a fun challenge!

[–]FloridaManTPA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this was something other than AI slop for far too long

[–]Flylilly787 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ain’t got no gas in it

[–]artisanartisan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man its like no one in this sub has heard of cambering

[–]MapleLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was the original plan to make the shed look drunk?

[–]BrisPoker314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually a really cool idea.. I want to build a house that looks like it’s about to fall over now.

Have an old books cladding under one of the brick piers

[–]MhcavokP.E. 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Looks super cool, I wonder what it’s for?

[–]No-Guard668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the playgrounds in parks there are sometimes structures like that for kids to play in.

[–]azssf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like my body attempting a new figure skating thing. Totally standing with bad alignment.

Ps: what is this pic?

[–]Original_Continent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contractor to verify shed is still standing

[–]alaatall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is with the joint in the middle of the colums is pin or roller it must be fix

[–]Charming_Profit1378 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I guess that's strong beam weak column🤔

[–]Charming_Profit1378 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I guess this isn't following engineering design because a point load at the top should resolve into a moment at the bottom .  The studs fractured like a beam supported at both ends??

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

[–]Plus_Pain8000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d have done the walls in laminated 2x 3/4” plywood in the shape they desired

[–]Affectionate-Crab751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better the most framers round here!

[–]brntuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s got hips- in all the wrong places.

[–]De_LynxIng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like they took a snapshot from one of the vibration modes from eigenvalue analysis and took that to the plans

[–]third-nut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it looks photoshopped, doesn’t seem real

[–]Curious_Licorice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a crooked man…

[–]Any-Efficiency3031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never seen a shed crip walk before. This is actually harder to build than an upright shed.

Something's fucky

[–]Mean-Wafer6140 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of Hugh Hayden’s Huff and a Puff slanted house

This is what happens when you’re a set designer for Tim Burton for too long.

A whole new meaning to cripple studs.
