I am buying one of these 10'x10' Duramax Plastic sheds: http://www.leisurebuildings.com/storemore/sheds/duramax/
I am putting the shed on a flat dirt area. I need to build a floor of some sort to put the shed on and need some ideas. At first I was going to use 4"x4" lumber to build a frame and then put 1/2" plywood ontop of the frame and then put the shed ontop of that. But due to the standard 4'x8' plywood sizes, this would make it have lots of seems on the floor. The second option I was thinking was just to again get 4"x4" treated lumber. Build a 10'x10' square, and build the shed ontop of that. Then for the floor, just to get quary gravel or some other rock and put that inside the wooden frame. This would prevent animals such as groundhogs from getting underneat a wooden floor, and also prevent a wooden floor from rotting.
I was just wondering what you guys think the best way for me to go is, and also the CHEAPEST and EASIEST. The shed is only $900 and I didn't want to spend much over 1K if possible.
Thanks
