Saltbox plan?

[greginshasta]

I picked up lumber for a 10x12 footing today and will get that framed out tomorrow. My current thinking is that I really like the appeal of the saltbox style of shed, and am headed for that form of structure.

Does anyone have a plan for a saltbox? I've seen a couple online, and one is a shed-building book, but I'm curiouis what others might have before I get started.

Thanks

No plans just get a picture and go from there.

The carpentry program at my local high school makes salt box sheds to sell, he has two in there right now...I think they are even 10 x 12...maybe you could email him, ask if you could buy a set of plans from him?

Of course you wrote this in July, now that I've looked, so it probably doesn't make much sense in September!!!

Ignore that last comment...you registered in July!

I'll shoot them a note right now. Thanks Cheryl. (Starting to frame the foundation today. The only part I'm not real clear on is how the roof is best framed.)

These are the only reference pics I've found.

Build the profile you want on the end walls, tack a ridge board in place, and then set the rafters.

Interesting. Thanks Mac.

Hey, I made a dump run yesterday and went shopping in their lumber / brush pile. Found a gorgeous wood exterior door which will work nicely into this plan.

Also found a garage sale for a guy who is leaving for Peru and he has a huge pile of lumber for which he wants $50. Gonna drop by today and look closer to see what's in the pile (It was all up in the rafters of his shed when I saw it yesterday.)
