This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the iron badge in Dimensional Lumber Woodworking.

For this BB, you will build a skiddable lumber storage shed!

To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
- inside dimensions must be at least 8' x 8' x 12' long
- racks to store lumber
- must have five foot eaves to protect it from the elements
- strong enough to handle being dragged by a tractor while 1/3 full of wood
- no treated wood
- no paint

To document your completion of the BB, provide proof of the following as pics or video (less than two minutes):
- the wood you're starting with

8x8x12 + 5ft eaves.  Does this mean it needs an 18 ft x 22 ft roof?
