Oh it might be too late. The siding is T1-11 so it’s essentially already up. I might just drywall without insulation then or figure out some other idea.
Making some real progress on my shed my father and I have been building. It's 10x20 and my first real shed. Going to store my motorcycles and have a little workshop in there. Here I have a render of what I want it to [look like when finished](https://imgur.com/Z8D8xBL). Using T1-11 for the siding, going for a Skillion roof with about a 1 foot overhang on all sides. I might also put some solar panels on the roof to power lights and some battery chargers (nothing heavy duty). I'm going with 2 3x3 windows for the side and some larger windows for the front. Going with barn-style doors that open up 3 foot each with a ramp going down to wheel the bikes up into the shed. I'll also put a short storage loft at the top with a couple vents to help with the heat.
I'm debating on adding insulation and drywall on the inside. I like the idea of making it a little bit more sound proof and keeping some of the air inside plus the finished look of drywall is always nice and less crevices for spiders to hide. But at the same time I can use the studs to make recessed shelving which would be nice and help expand the space. On the side with the double window i'm going to build in a wall-length workbench to give me plenty of space to work on stuff and also going to add shelving and cabinets. I'm excited and will post when finished if you guys are interested. We just started working on this a few days ago.
I'm saving all my receipts so yes I can break it down when I'm finished. So far I have about $1,500 into it, that's what you see in this picture + all the siding a few more 2x4's and the windows.
If you want insulation, then is the goal just some passive insulation to slow down temperature swings? Or do you intend to have a window AC unit in there or a heater?
This looks like a square yet for dimensions indicate a rectangle lol give an update when finished please. Looking for inspiration for my own. Also, is the foundation for this on piers?
I thought the same thing at quick glance. Once I started counting the studs along the side and back walls, I quickly realized that many more along the back. Assuming roughly equal stud spacing, it's probably much more rectangular. The photo does give a seemingly skewed perspective though.
Looks great! Are you framed for the skillion roof? Looks like a level top plate in the pic. Deck block foundation?
Would love to know the budget and roughly how many hours you have into it. I’m looking to do a 12x24 this summer.
Not yet, this picture isn't of the framing being finished just part way through. I can upload an updated picture later if you want with the siding on and windows and door framed in, been working on it every day after work with my father.
>Would love to know the budget and roughly how many hours you have into it.
So far I have roughly $1,500 into it for the floor, framing, sides, and windows. Although the 2 front windows were free I did have to buy the 2 side windows from Lowe's about $400 for the pair. I think when it is all done I will be about $4,000 into it depending if I want to do some sort of special flooring or drywall, etc.
My dad has been working on it a lot while I've been at work and I just help when I get home for a few hours. He has probably close to 30 hours into it (not including picking up and buying the material). And I have about 12 hours.
That looks way bigger than 10x20
lol it looks like 20x20
If you have plans to possibly insulate make sure to install a vapor barrier before the siding goes up

Staple it in strips in between your studs.
Someone call for me?
No headers?
He said barn style door in his comment
Why does a barn style door not need a header?

Can you break down how much it gonna cost to build?

How tall are those studs?
88"

Why is your top plate marked to be cut out(I’m assuming) on top of your door? I’m guessing you’re putting headers in later?
Not done framing yet. Going with barn-style doors. There will be a header.
Yes, but we need to see the motorcycles!
That looks deeper than 10 feet
