Borton Shed

Ah - the MIGHTY SHED! This has been our latest project... 10' x 16' work shed in Doug's back yard. It has been keeping us very busy over the past couple weekends and at the pace we're going it is going to keep us busy until about 2012. It has been built primarily with recycled lumber from a great place called "re-use hawaii". Bargains galore at that place - we spent MAYBE $300 on all the 2x lumber you see here. We did pay top dollar for the 3/4" T&G ply for the floor and the 1/2" ply for the roof. And we will also buy new T11 ply for the siding - but overall, it will only cost something like $1,200 to build this thing. Pretty good deal for 160 sqft under roof...

Here is a cheesy little video showing our progress



and a picture you can actually see (gotta love those high quality videos!)



Dig those multi-colored studs and rafters! One beauty of re-used lumber is that some of it is already painted :)
