This Winter was not kind to the prefab steel shed that was on the property when we bought the house and it's not in a crumpled mess, still mostly buried in snow. I've recently been pondering what to do for a replacement. We don't require much outdoor storage, but typically we have push-mower, a set of car tires, some garden tools / shovels and anything else that needs temporary shelter in the outside. A comparable replacement steel shed can be had for ~$500, but I've been thinking of building one instead. I don't have much construction experience, but I know my way around a saw and a tape measure and I really like the idea of taking a pile of wood and making it into something.
Financially I'm not sure I can build a cheaper shed out of wood than the pre-fab, but skill wise I'm also uncertain, albeit ambitious. The existing shed is 6x9 and I am fairly confident the floor is intact and I could easily ( maybe easily) frame a wall on it. Can anyone offer any advice?
