^^^ you call that a shed? This is a shed:
Still have to paint and caulk the outside. Only hit my thumb hard with the thumb detector once. I'm a real crapsmen.

outside
Office table for 2, along with wings mounted to the wall. I also built the shelves from scratch as well.
I've been building things like this on my driveway, as I don't have proper shop space.
Also built 4 of these for the wife:
And then I made this with my 3d pen:

My wife and I broke our Ikea bed 
So I re-purposed the slats into a picnic bench for our kids. It was a bit wobbly so I added some angled braces after this pic was taken.

Nice work! Now I need more lumber to build one for the grandkids. It probably won't come out quite as nice as yours.
Entertainment shelf with lots of storage, and barriers to ensure nothing falls behind. You can't see it from the photo, but there's a screened-off ventilation cavity in the back that vents out the top. Currently rockin' a Switch, Wii U, xbone, and xbox360... also, I think I might take apart that AC unit and retro-bright the front plastic.
Built-in tables for the patio that I'm enclosing. These are built low, as they're primarily for my smallest children to do art projects on... although I'm also putting a couple of small CRTs on them for retro video games. Still more cleaning to do before I'm ready to open the patio to the kids.

Finally finished the fire pit I started in fall of 2018. I'm too old to be hauling around all that rock.
Been working on designing some hand tool holders as I had a bunch and then there was a sale and I picked up a whole bunch more Wiha screwdrivers and such... After a few revisions and orientations, this modular system has been working pretty well. I've got one more design printing now to get some larger T handle socket wrenches in stands, then I will probably share the models. Each layer is its own part with press fit tabs, then there's a front and a back, so you can stack them up in whatever configuration to hold the set of tools you have, though of course, they won't work for all brands or all shaft lengths etc.
Nice. Always good to knock off longstanding projects! (If we go on permanent lockdown, might be time to finish mudding my basement guestroom drywall.)
Chairs will go there, or planning on sitting on the wall?
