Doorshed in the back (bonus feature). The shed is all re-used and leftover stuff, with the exception of four treated 2x4s and two 16' 2x6s. Floor is chimney bricks and RR ties, walls are doors, framing is reclaimed, roof sheathing is used subfloor, siding is fence, windows are from a double-hung, screens are resized, shingles are excess from the neighbors house, drip edge is ReStore, paint is CleanSweep. I think I spent $50 in total. The shed was briefly featured in the documentary Your Environmental Road Trip.
