When looking for plans to build shed structures, we need to find a source of accurate blueprints and plans. Yes, I say that in the plural sense... after all, when was the last time you heard of anyone finding just one set of shed plans and immediately getting into the building of the shed?
You have to look through quite a few in order to find just the right one that will do best to meet your needs as far as yard size, yard shape, the purposes of what you re building a shed for, and so on.
There are really two things that you can do when you are going to build your own shed:
* Waste time and money
* Do it corret by having a shed plans in your hands
There are many different ways for the variety of sheds that are out there. You need to decide what type of shed you are going to need for your own use. Draw it out on a piece of paper just to get an idea in your head. Now let s talk about what not to do and what you need to do to save time and money
If you want to build your own shed there are a few things you need to consider. I can speak from experience here because I built a shed a few years ago and did not have a set of plans, a material list or even an idea of what the final project would look like. This is not very smart because I spent a lot of money on trial and error not to mention wasted weekends because I was trying to design on the fly.
My next shed project was different. The first had to be torn down because I did not get a building permit nor did I get permission from the home owner’s association and it did not conform to their guidelines.
First lesson, check local building codes and if you belong to any type of home owner’s association get their approval as well. In order to do these two things you need a set of plans. I’ll tell you right now that the time and trouble saved by just purchasing a good set of plans versus creating your own is well worth it.
Make sure your blueprints come with a complete material list as well as a cut chart showing you what size to cut your wood. This is pretty cool because you just buy your material and cut it all to size before you ever nail in your first nail. This is not something you can do when you do not have a professional set of construction plans.
Now, the next important thing to consider is the location of the shed and exactly what you will be using it for. Will it require an electric source as well? It is a good idea to design your shed to match your house or other out buildings on your property so it blends into the overall landscape.
Taking some time to consider these things will help the overall project run smoothly and will save you both time and money when you decide to build your own shed.
