It is a start, but you are going to need to add on next year once you see how much more room you need. When you get a bench, shelves, chair/stool and a skinning beam and some fur on the floor it will be kind of tight. Not much height for a skinning gambrel rig.

Too small for a burn stove, you will need a space heater of sorts to keep it warm. Looks to be about a 4' x 8' area?

An 8' x 12' would be a much more practical starter size for you. Just looking out for you. Been there done that a few times.

Thank you! We don’t have a whole lotta room. I’ll be happy with this for now! That shed will fill up quickly! Basically I want to access my stuff easily and he doesn’t have to deal with me skinning a critter in our basement!!!

Hopefully we will be dead by the time that happens. The tree is a source of spirituality here and has brought us nothing but blessings thusfar

^^^imagine a koi pond n the midst of it all! That is there too. We have buds and leaves and we try to keep it as maintained as possible and it works out. I hope nothing drastic happens and we can enjoy our little getaway!!

Appears you have a good Man that is trying to accomplish that.

Keep it up Chucky cool

That’s so cute! Slow but sure I’m getting him into trapping! We seen a coyote on our game cam and he says “well I guess I’m gonna have to catch that big guy for ya!!!”

You speak well of Chuck. I admire that.

Through thick n thin.

I've always said, as long as "" $$"" isn't a huge problem, let your spouse try and fulfill their own path.

You seem to be frugal yet motivated. Great combo in a relationship. cool

Anybody who speaks ill of their significant other, especially on social media, should be boiled in his own pudding

Very Nice Smasho.

Kidding aside it looks great and you have it well organized to fit your needs.
Maybe only needs a big rubber removable floor cover so if you’re skinning and fleshing in there you can clean up easily after. Floors can get awfully greasy. Good luck with it!
