a-frame build is a nightmare!

[elizabellastarr]

So I decided to go with an a-frame style coop.
Reasons why.
.thought it would be easier
. Take up less material
. Be moved easier
. Not take up as much room.


Boy was I wrong!
The angles are a nightmare when all u have is a table saw, square, and measure tape!
The material reduction was minimal and not worth the aggravation.
And what I estimated to be a few hours has taken all day and still not done.

Any way I think my chickens will like it! ;-).
The next one will be square!
It's a.4x8 but won't let me upload!

Lol. Welcome to my world. It's always the fast,easy and cheapest projects that turn in to the biggest debacles. I feel your pain!

That's what ours is (8 by 8 by 8). I had very little waste.
