one man's scrap is a another man's perfect fit.
corollary.
"you have a huge piece of thick underlay that would easily fit that entire area! Why don't you just do it in one piece?"
"why would I do it in one piece when I could use up 10 pieces? 😆"
ground is level or at least as level is it is going to be under my supervision lol. Laying down some gardening cloth to keep out blackberries mostly. Next I will put down drainage rock which will bring it to the right level to put down the rubber horse mat, which will then be the same height as the other shed

just cleared some of the rocks I had stored along the edge of the pond. Use them for some of the rocks under the shed since it doesn't matter if they're dirty.
At the same time doing the scariest thing in pond making.
Cutting a liner away.
It's sort of like taking off training wheels. You're not sure if things just gonna collapse lol but you're pretty sure it's OK
