I have some I knocked up on the computer but they are in the Sketchup format. It is of my shed/workshop which is 24' x 13' with a front veranda. (Looks like a summer house/log cabin type of thing but in shiplap. If this is any help I can e-mail it to you. HTH.

Edit; How do I send a private message to someone? most forums I'm on you just click on their name and it gives you the selection to send a pm.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?"
She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

I managed to send the plans by making JPEG's of each section which should help. Here is a picture of the finished item.

Thanks Argyll, I have just sent the plans by ********, you should have an e-mail to retrieve it. All the best. Let me know if it works as it is the first time I have used this method, thanks.

Shed from reclaimed materials
Post by trumpetmonkey »
Talking of sheds, if anyone's interested, I built a small shed/summerhouse out of almost entirely reclaimed materials in my parents' back garden a few years. It was kind of an experiment, see what I could do with reclaimed materials (so i was raiding skips basically I'm afraid).
Looked pretty good in the end and saved a lot of money! I have pics of all the stages of construction, would like to share them but can someone explain to me how I post images on the forum?[/img]
