This is a small storage shed project I did to replace an old dilapidated plastic one that was falling apart and leaking. It was a fun on and off week long project.
Total cost of wood and material was around $200.00. All cuts can be done using a circular saw however I used a table and miter saw for simplicity and speed. The basic joinery for the frame is glued hardwood dowels (1/4" and 3/8") however you can use pocket screws or simply glue joints (screws for the 1x2 trim as they will move). All of the trim was hand cut using my pull saw because, well, it's just so much easier cutting 1X2's by hand than running back and forth to the miter saw each time.
A good rule of thumb, be prepared to use a weatherproof sealant on all cracks and openings that might let water in prior to finishing. For a finish I am just using two coats of outdoor primer and 2 coats of outdoor paint. I may end up brushing on a coat of water sealant (Thompson's) along the bottom half to prevent the skirt from soaking up any water.
Overall dimensions are approx. 7' tall X 3' wide X 22" deep with a total of four shelves and a small attic you can use for whatever you like.
The whole build is documented by pictures and text upon request, just send me an email if interested. Enjoy :)
