Shed

[peterk123]

I've taken on a lot of DIY projects over the years. Multiple bathrooms and kitchens. Plumbing and wiring. Flooring. Siding. Heck, even did two gas insert fireplaces.

This is my first shed. Totally over building it. But omg is fun. Learning a lot of new things.

Why is it so small?

8x12. 8 feet at the eave. 10 feet at the ridge board. Plenty of room for my stuff. I'm trying to simplify my life.... nothing extra.

Looks good. If you'd like to see a shed build eerily similar to my last shed, google "shed of doom"

sheds are like gun safes, whatever size you "think" you need, triple it.

I assumed this was the shed he was building to hold his tools while he builds the real shed. Afterwards he can keep his Barbies in this one.

Some towns whack you on property taxes if the shed is over a certain size.
The town where I live it's 120 square feet, an 8'x12' is only 96 sf.

Anything less than 40x60 is just a tease

In my town o think anything over 10x10 or 10x12 you need a permit AND your taxes go up.
That's why I'll get a 30-40' shipping container and drop it on at the treeline and paint a tree mural/camo on it

No Simpson hardware?

If it’s on wheels it’s not taxed. Old 53’ trailers work mint!! Especially if you can make the grade work to back them up to an at grade entrance….

I dontvthinknit even has to be on wheels. My father has 2 old box truck bodies easily over 120sf no taxes on them. They are sunk so deep I don't even think its movable. Also has an old roadside coffee shop about 10x10

ROFL that is easily one of the best threads in the history of internetting.

If ya want to get really fancy, put multiple containers side by side, then cut out the walls and support and seal the roof. Still just containers as far as anyone else is concerned.

Phf, over building , your using 2x , lol
Nice, I built this shed almost 20 years ago. The money saved went to tools which I use to maintain everything else.
It is very satisfying doing so many things yourself. Especially if your not finacially well off.
I could not afford to pay someone else to do all the things I have learned to do.

How much does a shed's worth of lumber cost these days?

I am a cheap yankee by default , yet pallet shed does not compute.
Pallets to heat shed , thats more like it.

A friend turned one of his sheds into a bar room. Pretty cool.
