I've made several for myself out of opensided pallet crates given away free by my local tile store (they get their tiles delivered in them). I simply turn 'em on their sides, whack a plywood top on & waterproof with off cuts of tarp. Don't look pretty but do the job and cost next to nothing. However they can harbour false black widow spiders!!!

Here's mine, built out of pallets and some old slate that was lying around my old mans. it's now had a further extension:001_rolleyes:

Hello,

 

Apologies for resurrecting this fairly old thread, but to answer the original question - I don't buy in log stores flat-pack, but build and install flat-pack stores for customers in my local area.

 

I've found the cost of haulage of these items to be fairly high when shipping to customers further afield. Smaller stores holding approx 1 cubic metre can sometimes fit on a single pallet and the cost is usually reasonable, but for anything larger - which is most stores - the costs become prohibitive.

 

Some of the stores I build are shown here... Log Stores | Things From Wood

They look good. Made two the same shape & design design out of some free old decking planks that were being thrown out . Had to spend on the screws & the lap larch roof though.

 

Also fitted a tarp on front to pull down when its wet

 

If I had to buy all wood would of being too expensive to make for me

Thanks face cord.

 

I've found the raw material costs to be not too bad, but certainly more than free decking boards. You can't beat a bit of recycling

Im thinking of much the same design but planning on a clear perspex roof with a 'hangover' at the front to try for a bit of solar assistance??
