Free Shed Plans And Discount Building Materials
Once you download your free shed plans and see what material you will need, here are a few tips to save even more money.
Consider using "rough lumber" for your framing. Rough lumber or rough cut lumber is lumber that has been milled but not planed. Typically, a rough 2"x4" is 2" thick and 4" wide. A planed 2"x4" is 1.5"x 3.5" and so on. Call your local sawmills or salvage yards. Ask salvage yards if they have any used lumber, you may be able to save substantially on your shed building materials.
When it comes to roofing, siding, windows and doors, a little shopping around can go a long way. Check classified ads under building materials. Ask at lumber yards about slightly damaged inventory or returned special orders. If there is a nearby manufacturer, ask about discontinued products or returned custom orders. They will often sell these quality items at a big discount just to free up storage space.
Ebay is a great place to find deals on everything under the sun.
A little leg work or a few phone calls will save you money. Do the labor yourself and laugh all the way to the bank.
