Project Budget $250.00

Project Summary

This building is a makeshift mini house / shed / workshop/golf proshop. Materials were primarily acquired free - craigslist, roadside junk, or bartered for. The cost of this project in dollars is currently at about 150$ tools and materials. plus about 15 hours bartered for pallets and screws/paint. I am an avid disc golfer so i hope to allow this to be a proshop for my yard course which is small but good practice. Winter's coming fast so hopefully it will get a roof and much caulking applied soon. . sliding deck was influenced by a picture i saw on yahoo of a sliding roof for a shed planetarium. Roof trusses were built out of a frame pallets that were previously used for storage of granite counter tops...also free items off craigslist. An old chimney from a tear down was painted black and placed on top for ventilation. Storm door and double insulated windows were also acquired free on craigslist.
