Build Rust-Resistant Shed

Here’s a storage shed that won’t rust through and will hold up longer than most metal storage buildings.

Constructed of rough-sawn exterior-plywood siding and cedar shingles, it measures a spacious 8-by-8-by-12 feet. This structure features a securable window and door to help keep your valuable tools as safe as possible.

The plan includes step-by-step instructions and drawings which guide you from pouring the slab to raising the walls to shingling the roof. To obtain Utility Building, Plan No. 713, send $5.50.

This color guide contains ideas for 65 designs, including storage sheds, cabanas, garbage can enclosures, studios, animal shelters, barns and more. Ask for Backyard Structures, No. SD5, $11.95.
