Looking good! :thumbsup:

What do you use for the floor on these? I was trying to come up with a few ideas for mine.

Pressure treated 2X4's frame. Left one with green painted floor, also has pt 3/4" plywood. Regular 3/4 plywood on the right one, to be painted. Did'nt see the need for P T plywood since it's covered. Used plumbers tape to attach frame to base. The bases were made in 3 sections, and nailed together. The one on the right I think is 3+ years old. On the left started ripping in under a year, Mfg sent new cover n/c. Tent kits, new covers, and floor cost about $200 each. I got them at pep boys when they went on sale. The whole kit with all the powder coated poles, cost the same as a new cover. They are 10' X 20'. harbor freight sells one 10 X 17, might be a little tight. I cover them because sometimes a bird will get in and poop a lot, and set the alarm off. One year I put 2 cars into storage, and spent $1000. Saving money this way. Hagerty charged me a sur charge when the cars were stored off my property, only $11.

Thanks for sharing! I have a higher end 10x20 portable garage I bought of Craigslist years back; it's been setup at my friends house for quite a few years and is holding up great. If I ever get it back from him I'd like to build a floor for it.

Yikes.

And I literally just called my insurance agent, and had my Mark taken off or "storage" status. Hopefully that weather misses me up here. I still don't have streets that are quite clean enough to meet my standards..
