Just wanted to share how I built my floor a week ago, the back of the shack is 16" the front 4". The pad is 3" reinforced and it rests on 6 sonotubes @ 41/2' deep. It isn't going anywhere.

Looking good. Isn't it exciting to think of boiling out of the elements next season. I'm putting the finishing touches on my shack and my regular "helpers" keep stopping by saying how much they're looking forward to being warm next year during "Maple Church".
