    Default I want a shed, a big one!

    I had Tuff Shed quote me a 12'x20' Pro Barn today. Anyone who is licensed want to give me a quote? I'm in Littleton, thank you.

    Not sure what it costs to buy one but you could build one in a weekend depending on what you want

    Building one is cheaper and sturdier.

    FYI there is no real license for this kind of work in colorado. It's just a business license to be a general contractor. Look for insurance.

    Yeah, my brother and I were looking at tough sheds this weekend (he's in the market), after checking a few out, I mentioned to him how easy it would be to build one ourselves.

    Thanks guy's. I'll look into that as well, maybe one of the kits since my framing skills are non-existent.

    A few YouTube videos and tools and your all set. Get a chop saw and a framing nail gun then have at it

    Tuff Shed quoted me $8,500 for a 12'x20' Pro Barn, installed with tax and a permit. I can do a Home Depot kit for about half that, plus beer.

    Go look the Tuff Sheds over real close, and take a bunch of photos inside with your phone for ideas how to build one. A TS came with our house and I use it a lot, but there really isn't much to them.

    I just built one. I bought a set of plans with a cut list. If I remember right materials were about 2500 from Home Depot. I'll take some pics here in a bit. If you want I can pm you the plans. If you take the list into Home Depot and have them put it in the bid room you can save at least 10% on materials.

    Go all Huck Finn and cast it as a learning opportunity for anyone thinking of doing a similar project -- they get to learn from your mistakes. Meals and beer provided.
