Was the departure permanent? They tend to have multiple dens and move as they feel comfortable.
Here is layout….
It hasn't come back yet. I intentionally haven't repaired the obvious damage as it will just rip things apart again (and maybe cause irreparable damage). There are no trees it can climb to gain access. It is climbing the house and reaching around the eaves. I haven't found where yet (but exact location isn't all that important as there are many similar locations). On that note, I need to move a camera. it hasn't found anything where it is, maybe it will have better luck looking at a different face.
Kids playset is in the way. Don't fret, I have a spot cleared ready for it!
When I had them in my last attic I covered the entry with poly then made the attic hostile with noise and firing mothballs around with a sling shot.
I sealed the original entrance(well installed a one way door so the could leave but not enter). They busted another entrance. Sealed that one. Busted another one. Death to trash pandas. I tried to be friendly. It didnt work.
Heavy suckers aren't they? I used to store mine on a mezzanine at the shop, using a worm drive boat winch.
That is genius! I need something like this to free up space.
I had mine on the lift last summer. Tried something different this year to free up room on the lift. It is in a tent that is supposed to be for bicycle storage shoved in a dead corner of the yard.
That's def an option that's better / cheaper than a brand new shed. However, we looked at the current shed...and it's in a spot where it's literally out of the way and takes nothing from the yard.
Sorry to ruin the fun. Current shed location is probably no bueno. Minimum exterior side yard is 7.5m. Definition of exterior side yard below. Municipalities have so many unenforced by-laws it's crazy. It would be better if they enforced by-laws (and purged the sections they don't want to enforce).That's def an option that's better / cheaper than a brand new shed. However, we looked at the current shed...and it's in a spot where it's literally out of the way and takes nothing from the yard.
So I may just make it smaller to meet regulations, and then build a 110sqft shed in a corner of the lot where it's out of the way.
Get 220sqft of space with no issues, but I will power that newer shed with a 40-60A line in case I want it.
The outdoor office / gym is slowly becoming a non-starter
Obviously trying to save floor space. What fits underneath?

Hmmm...not sure I understand. But dammit.
You are correct...this is the cheapest option.
Where's the plywood rotted? Bottom of wall from splashing water? Chalk line, circular saw, prybar and the rotten part is gone. Replace with a new strip of plywood. Finish strip with stucco to match house treatment.
