How to make a shed using recycled materials

So I have recently moved, I have no storage space for tools or an office.

 

I do have two slightly damaged sheds, I intend to make this into one large shed, make a small office and storage area.

 

Has anybody any experience in this?

 

I think once I put a base down, the only problem will be the roof, as I need to change the direction. I just hope it does not cost me more than buying a new one. (i am sure it will in labour)

  • I'm in the same boat mate. My landlady said i could put up a shed....but didn't specify a size. I think the size of a double garage should cover it.....muhahaha.

    Ready bought sheds are annoyingly flimsy so it probably will cost you more as you strengthen/replace bits. But it will be done to your specs so probably last a hell of a lot longer!

    Put some pics up so we can see the progress...

  • If your friendly with any local builders merchants ask for them to save some pallets - The stretcher bars off many palets are brilliant for building sheds (3inch x 1.5 inch thick). Some larger pallets ahve 2m bars to use.

    The pallet planks are also usually good quality wood - usually untreated though so you will have to oil it. Ive used pallets to make benches and a lockbox on my allotment.

  • Have a look online at sheds made of pallets (not just pallet wood), some are quite amazing! Type in 'pallet sheds' on google images and you'll see what I mean...
