I'm right in the middle of a DIY shed project at this time. I decided to on building my own mostly because I wanted my son to know a little bit about framing. As a kid from a large middle class family we were always adding on to our home - and always DIY. For whatever reason I wanted my son to know how to drive a 16d nail...
Dimensions are 14W x 7D with a 6'2" doorway and a fairly tall "attic" area. When finished, it will be stuccoed and covered with a red tile roof - both to match the existing typical So Cal home exterior. The door will be a sliding barn door. Gable vent on either side, two $80 windows in the front.
About $600 into it so far. Will have to pay others (or barter) for roofing and stucco.
I lent my truck to a friend for the weekend - wife did not appreciate this...
