Riassunto

Become a citizen of Shed Nation!

With hardworking advice from Popular Mechanics on designing, building, and customizing a shed for any yard, this is the ultimate inspirational handbook for every homeowner.

 There are innovative plans for building several sheds, each with a different practical use, as well as contributions from Popular Mechanics readers who share their own designs.  

The sheds include:

- Small Is Beautiful: A 6&; x 8&; shed with solid framing, plywood sheathing, and cedar siding. It&;s big enough to hold a variety of tools, but won&;t dominate the backyard.

- The Groundskeeper: This 9&; x 13&; shed with a spacious layout and a crisp, no-frills design is ideal for the beginning DIYer. 

- The Big Red Shed: This handsome shed is a multi-purposer&;s dream; a 10&; x 12&; tool shed combined with an 8&; x 10&; open bay that&;s great for firewood or tractors. 

- Classic Colonial: A stylish, multipurpose garden shed with decorative trim and architectural accents. Includes a 12&; x 12&; general storage space, 4&; x 12&; potting area, and a small loft for seasonal storage.

- The Greenhouse: Complete instructions on purchasing a kit greenhouse in a variety of sizes (7&; x 9&;, 8&; x 16&;, or larger) allows for a big-league growing season. 

For additional motivation, beautiful photographs present a wide variety of sheds, from tree houses to eco-friendly buildings
