This is an announcement to the world (or the five people that read this blog) that commencing sometime in early 2008 will be the ground breaking ceremony for the ManShed. Is it a shed? Is it a small house? The ManShed will be a communal studio, music making, man-hang-time, woman craftiness explosion, guest room in our backyard. The ManShed will feature a sliding glass door, two vented windows, electricity, and a small deck and patio. You can find out where I stole the idea from here.
Manliness will be required of me to build this shed, and manliness I will give it. Commence saving money….now!
you building a pool to go with it?
yes. we need this. everyone.
Awesome idea.
(pool not included)

Dude.
I want to slap you across the mouth.
Nice easel. WTF!?
A manshed is where a man “does stuff”. Not where he lounges in fresh linens. Christ!.
Where’s the tools, sawdust, extension cords, MINI FRIDGE WITH BEER and WINGS? Where’s the over-sized 3-way house speakers?
I’ll give you props on the wood shell but that’s about it… And the location is all wrong.
It should be at the furthest corner of the property, preferrably near a drainage ditch, creek, pond, alley, or neighbor’s garage so you can toss your crap out and keep your area clean. Not right on top of the damn pool where the kids, wife, friends, party, noise is.
Man sheds are for getting AWAY from all that. As long as you can get power and a hose to your shed you’re fine. You don’t need a pool.
A manshed should have AC/DC or Deep Purple blasting out of it, not Yanni. There should be beer-can art you’ve crafted yourself everywhere, not a well-placed bottle of merlot.
A bed wastes precious space for a pool table, foosball, dartboard, or table saw- a Murphy Bed would be more appropriate.
Most importantly, it should be inpenetrable. Your manshed should double as a Panick Room for you and your family; a bomb shelter of sorts.
Take a look at this.

Maybe after viewing it you’ll get back in touch with your testes…
