I really like the shed plans. Can probably build this in my backyard, yet, no money for timber yet. Does one happen to know anything about building apprentice I beam saw horses. They can hold a lot of weight. And can be modified to have a tool tray in the bottom. Just an idea. Thats all.
thanks
for the plans i will be able to construct this with all the layout plans and materials
