After successfully creating the foundation, I was very relieved but also very impressed at the progress of the project. I was a little worried that due to the lack of experience in our group, we would really struggle when it came to the construction. Thanks to meeting with different people and Wyatt's previous experience, along with the supervision of his dad, I was very impressed with what we had done. The walls were a lot of fun to build and once they were up, it finally began to look like a shed. Putting windows in the shed, it made making some of the walls more complex to create. Wyatt's father was extremely generous and oversaw the creation of the first wall to make sure that we knew how to do it for the remaining three. While it took a while, we were able to successfully create 3 of the 4 walls on Friday. While we initially planned on completing 2 walls a day, we worked extremely hard and grinded out 3 walls. It has been nice to see the efficiency of our group steadily increase throughout the building process. We are all getting better using tools (Even through I still struggle screwing in screws), and we are working at a more efficient rate. Finally after constructing the 3 walls, it is finally starting to look and feel like a shed. I was amazed at the size of a 12 by 12 shed. It is a lot more specious than I initially expected and will provide a great deal of space to hang out and store things for the Beck Family
