I'm thinking about doing the same basic thing. Building an 8x10 or 10x12 shed in the backyard and build it as if it were a small cabin  - as a dry run/ practice exercise before building a 20x34 in a few years!

As you size this up, don't forget the rafter ties  ;)


Kris

i added some collar ties, simpson hangers, and i am adding some base rafter ties to hang some stuff on.....thanks for the input though....

thought a painting would help blend the shed to the yard...

If I could get one of these close to my garden with the artwork i might stand a chance of not having the rabbits and ground hogs eat all of my veggies !!
