And I'm sure you have some kind of plan BUT you might take it easy on what you put in there before you move it to your new land, because with everything you talking about putting in there I'm afraid it will be way too heavy to move to your new location. Just a thought, might check into that aspect of it! Hate to see you have to unload it all again when it's time to move! But I know your so HAPPY, everyone can tell..... Your just bubbling with excitement and that's cool to see! Enjoy it, you lucky lucky guy!

The idea of using the 75 inch tv as a brace for boxes behind it will damage the tv screen. Please go get a thin plywood board cut to the same size of the tv or bigger as a backing to the tv to protect the tv from pressure that can damage the screen as they did not build those tv's to allow anything to be against the plastic back or front!!!

Ok Eric, I'll play devil's advocate here. You're making all these plans (that's really great) but what happens if the closure is delayed or doesn't go through? If you load all your stuff in the shed it will be so much harder for the movers to get the shed to your property and placed. It might damage the floors or you might have to empty everything out before they can move it. What a bummer, having to move everything two or three times. Been there, done that! I know you want to have all your stuff in one place but give yourself some time to get ready for the stuff before going to Illinois pick it up. I'm just thinking about how much stress you'll be under if things don't go well. Give yourself a little time, take one step at a time and you'll get there. Good luck putting it all together.

I really like everything you do and have been following you for years. I do have one suggestion though. You mentioned "bungying" in your TV to hold the boxes back. That statement made me nervous because if your load shifts then it will push out stretching the bungy cords more and more thus perhaps breaking. I would suggest a dynamic rope or webbing, "something that does not stretch at all". I would hate to see the video of you explaining why your large screen tv broke loose using bungy cords.

Apple drains has great videos on KZitem how to do drainage yourself.
