Sawmill Shed

Michael Watson

Project Description
Looked for a shed design after mentoring with a friend and getting an idea of what is needed. Couldnt find a design that incorporated features I wanted. Especially wanted to saw in the dry without having poles in the way that I could (probably would) knock down as I loaded logs. After looking online, combined features and elements of other sheds/buildings and came up with my own design. Had several builders look at it and they all thought it should work, so I came up with material list and began sawing. All of the logs came from my own farm.

Finished Dimensions
Twenty feet by Forty feet

Money Saved
Estimated $1,500 when I first began design, but considering the rise in lumber prices, that amount has probably doubled or tripled.
