PostHeaderIcon I want FREE blue prints for building a shed where can I get them?


The main place I look for free information that is good would be the public library. Usually there is a help desk that can guide you to any books they may have on the subject

PostHeaderIcon Developing a Field for Horses?

We have a field that is approximately 3 acres and hope to have 2 horses housed there some day. We will likely have a combination of wood and electric fence. We will have a turnout area with a shelter, as well as a small riding area. We’ll be building a small barn (2 stalls and 2 storage areas for feed and tack), as well as a storage shed. We have also figured out how to run electricity to the new horse area.

My dilemma is water. We live in an area that gets pretty cold in the winter, way below freezing. We have a well which supplies our house but is at least 100 yards from where the ‘barn’ will go. Since we can’t afford to dig another well, suggestions have been to either run a line under the frost line from the house to the field, or have a water holding tank in the barn. We will want water supplied in the barn as well as a trough outside as we plan to leave the horses out as much as possible.

Would love any ideas or suggestions. Thank you.

I had the same situation on my new property last year. After hauling water for awhile, we finally just ran a water line to the barn. Let me tell ya, it is definitely worth doing. They can just tie into the main waterline coming off your well pump, but the line does have to be buried about 6 feet deep, which requires quite a bit of excavation.

We put in a hose spigot and an automatic waterer. I don’t know how I ever lived without the auto waterer–it is the best. I don’t even have to worry about water at all in the winter. It’s SO nice.

So I suggest just sucking it up and running the water line down to the barn. It’ll be worth your investment.

PostHeaderIcon How much should someone charge me to build a shed that is 12 feet by 16 feet?

it will be made of metal

Well personally i’d build the shed yourself. Its cheaper and much more customizable, seriously! I’ve build many sheds in my time (Carpenter) There’s a couple of guides you can get on the internet (Shed Blueprints) to help you out with this. Head to this site i think its called – http://www.howtobuildashedguide.com

PostHeaderIcon Garden Furniture?

We have a lovely wooden table and chairs but would they spoil if i left them out permanently for the summer? Theyre treated with something – ie they came like that. We hardly ever use them cos its a pain getting them in and out of the shed, but if i felt safe to leave them out we’d use them more! Its been so wet lately ..

I have wooden furniture out in my garden year long. If they are sealed with a non-yellowing polyurethane, you will need to add extra coats every other year or so to continue protection. Also, I purchased covers for my furniture that keeps the leaves off of them and adds protection during our rainy season. I have the ones with vinyl on the top but fabric underneath against the furniture. The ones that are only made of vinyl can trap moisture between the cover and wood which causes mold or mildew.

PostHeaderIcon What is the max span of a two by four and a two by six? I am building a shed roof eight feet long .?


well if you mean that the length of rafters are 8 feet then it would really depend on the pitch of the roof, space of the rafters and grade of the lumber. on a roof slope 4 to 12 or higher a 2×4 at 16" oc can span 9 feet if it is grade 1. if it was me I’d use the 2×6 at 16" oc build it strong and it will last for years.
