subject: DIY Shed - Free Plans Recommended [print this page] Are you ready to build a shed? "What kind of storage shed do yo want to build?", I ask. "A do it yourself storage shed", you answer. Other natural questions to follow would be, what is the purpose of the storage shed? And what type of building materials are you going to use? I remember reading about a man that built a shed from pallets. He used pallets for both flooring and walls. Then he used plywood for the roof. I had mentioned this story to my husband and he replied with, "not in our state". Sheds built in the state of Florida have to meet hurricane codes. I thought it was pretty cool how he built his shed with pallets, but...check your local building codes before starting to build your do it yourself shed and I would also recommend that you start with a free shed building plan.
