I never use plans for my furniture projects, but I find that I may need some for this. I want to build a shed in my backyard and I'm looking for some detailed plans (willing to pay for them). If you know of any that you tried plase let me know.
For the CAD-heads out there if you have any shed CAD drawings you be willing to share please let me know.
More information please! Form _and_ function.
Not meant to be insulting, but aren't you dumbing down a bit.
A furniture builder asking for shed plans is like a Nascar crew chief asking how to change a tire, no? :-)
Gamble or saltbox roof.
Gable not gamble.
Should a professional piano player be expected to know how to play the tuba?
No, GAMBREL
No , gable. I don't want a barn.
Not a valid comparison.
A professional piano player shouldn't need sheet music to play scales on a marimba.
Now THAT almost got a snort of tea out of my nose.
Actually, putting together a shed economically does require some planning and knowledge or appropriate materials. When I thought I could make some money a few years ago by building on site sheds and shops (I couldn't) I went with a guy that subcontracted the building of the sheds from the vendor.
His plans were so well thought out, he could put an entire shed together including hanging doors, windows, and installing the roof in a day with a helper. His average shed (their best seller) was an
8X10, and at the end of the job he had less than a wheelbarrow of scrap left. To me, that was a thing of beauty.He built sheds and stand alone rooms built like these:

Yep I googled too. Probably a lot of crap plans out there. That's why in my original post I requested info on plans that were "tried".
You might find something in 3Dwarehouse...
How about a hammered dulcimer?
I went to your site and I'm impressed.... and jealous of your table saw.
I'd say it's like Lionel Hampton asking for sheet music to play chopsticks.
That's supposed to be a compliment, but we can agree to disagree.
I could probably make one without plans. It would look normal from the outside and would stand the test of time. However, when you went inside it would probably look like nothing you'd ever seen. I want to be conventional here. And thanks for the compliment!
Would gambrel work? :)

Forgot to add, do not set a footer unless you want to pull a building permit, meet codes and add to your property tax assessment.
Place shed on some concrete blocks at the corners and avoid the hassle.
Have fun.

Thanks Lew. I think I still might need a permit here in NC. I need to look into this (probably depends on the size?).
