That looks like a pretty easy build if we have all the materials. It said there was a materials list included. That is very helpful.

Yep...my question is how hard would it be to extend it to 8x4. And if someone could meet me at the post road lowes tomorrow cause I don't think I can fit a whole sheet of plywood into my van lol. If I can safely cut them in half I'm fine.

Hey I am in to!!!!

Omg. I think I figured out the roof problem of making it 8x4 instead of 6x4! Gonna check it out now.

Ok I can buy everything for the coop and run. ..I just need someone who can drive those green fence posts for that...

Anyway, I can buy all the materials tomorrow, and as I said if I can cut the wood I can haul it myself. If not I will need help. I am thinking of putting that corrugated plastic roofing on top of the plywood. I can buy it in 12 foot long pieces so that would take care of the overhang and I could even have a little porch sticking out. They also have it in steel or pvc. Whatever will work best. I'd love if someone could come to lowes with me

Anyway would you guys be available Friday Saturday or Sunday? If I could get a couple people to help I don't think it would take us very long to knock this out. I might be able to get some stuff pre cut at Lowes too. Save some time. I would need someone with a circular saw, a jigsaw, a wood staple gun thingy, drills, hammers or nail gun. I have a sad little black and decker lol. Anyway please let me know! Hugs! You guys are the best.

That's a good looking building.

I've never assembled or disassembled that type of shed, so maybe someone who has done that could advise if the fasteners are such that it could be taken flat for transport.

Surely it be feasible to replace the roof with something that can hold the snow load we get here.
