Publisher's Note
Do you find that you need places to keep the things that make outdoor bring so enjoyable? Any one of the seven projects you'll find here are worth the price of this book. Begin with an all-purpose, large utility shed for a quiet, out-of-the-way spot; it also works well as a potting shed or small workshop. Next comes a handsome pole barn with vertical posts and a gravel floor instead of wood (great for storing lawn tractors or motorcycles). A small open-sided shed is right for storing firewood, while the ingenious garbage house is raccoon- proof, easy to clean, and charming. There's also an attractive shed for pool or patio that offers both storage and a tiled countertop for serving hot food. And if you're looking for a place to relax and sip a drink while watching the sun go down, the gazebo is your project -- it's so attractive you can put it wherever the view is nicest. Finally, don't miss the delightful children's playhouse -- it's spacious, dry, and airy, looks great to passersby, and is big enough to store bikes, skateboards, and lots of other kids' outdoor stuff. The complete instructions cover the basics of small shed building that are common to all the projects, along with practical tips on planning, selecting building materials, and choosing a style and color scheme that looks so good that they increase the value of your home, as well as technical aspects of selecting a site, dealing with grade levels, and water runoff. Construction techniques come with hundreds of photos that show exactly how to lay foundations, set up framing, put on roofing, install siding, and finish doors and windows.
