Build a 12x16 Shed on Steep Slope

I built this 12x16ft shed from the ground up from scratch. It was tricky because it was on a steep hill. All wood used in this project are pressure treated, ground contact rated. I built it extra strong especially the foundation. It has 18 posts and as you can see all the extra cross beams. The “”professionals”” gave me a quote for $15,000 for labor and materials. They use cheap materials and normally place cinder blocks for footings and would just rest the posts on top, which could easily shift over time and ruin your shed. If I can build it by myself with no experience, you can too. Don’t pay double or triple the money for inferior work. If you’re able, do it yourself.
