I'd certainly vote for just getting a retractable extension cord on a reel that you can tuck away and unwind when you need it, over burying an extension cord, but that's just because I know I'd personally manage to burn something down by accident.

As an added bonus, if you ever find yourself in Victorian England you'll have no problem finding a job!

Is it too late to consider a steampunk shed?

Looks great IMO — a fantastic start

Man I've got a big enough pile of bricks that I really should think about copying you.

And the bike goes underneath?

That looks sturdier than my house. Good job!

Reading through this thread and I wish I’d taken the time to pour a concrete slab for my lovely $1000 home depot “workshop” shed. Instead we put down a square foundation of pavers over crush, then bolted the shed to that, then put down treated plywood as the flooring covered with linoleum. Basically a horrible decision at every stage. I’m going to spend the first few weeks of usable weather next year tearing out damp and rotten plywood and replacing it with something, I’m not sure what, but basically my plywood flooring is turning to soggy mulch. Surprise surprise — a budget plastic shed is bad at keeping out melting snow and rain.

So yeah, I think I can do that. I'll have to revisit how it's bolted down to the concrete but I think for sure I should be able to figure something out to add an airgap. Thankfully when it's not bolted down I think it'll basically be weightless so should be super easy to lift to repair the foundation. I'm also going to see what other options I have for flooring itself. Plywood looked ugly as sin but MAY have survived if I didn't cover it with something that locked the moisture in.

This is INSANELY amazing. I can't believe how good that looks. Having stood up a rickety home-depot plastic shed and turning it into a bike workshop, I now have an appreciation for what a sturdy, well built structure will afford you and I think you're going to be super happy in your new workshop. Really makes me want to take a summer and re-build mine, except lumber prices mean I'll probably pay twice what I'd want.
