The Pros and Cons of Free Storage Shed Plans

You will see many offers of free shed plans online. As with many things in life, however, free is not always the answer to your problem. If you are an expert at preplanning, producing your own blueprints from basic plans or diagrams, making a comprehensive materials list before starting your build, as well as being an experienced woodworker, then perhaps free storage shed plans will provide sufficient guidance for you to make a good shed. But that is a big IF. We show you a much better way of doing things to get a really professional-looking shed.

portable garage34 How can i store my bike?

amoshin 91 asked:

well, the thing is, i have a garage. however, it is filled with dust, spider webs, mildew, etc. therefore, i only use it for storage (lamps, couches, desks, etc)

since im might get a bike (after i take the safty course thing) i dont know where to store it… i was thinking of getting one of those “portable garages”, but iono if my bike will be okay in there for the winter…

i also came across a thing called a “cycle shelter” which is a cover for your bike, but iono if i should use that instead of a portable garage…

getting a POD is also an option, but it’ll cost me like $125 every month, but i dont wanna spend $125/month for storage…

can anyone help me? what kind of storage should i get?

maybe i should just build one out of sheets of plywood from Home Depot… =(

Insulating garage, but still too hot?

portable garage21 Insulating garage, but still too hot?

Darin A asked:

Here are the numbers:

Garage is 24 X 20 with a 12 foot ceiling
2×4 stick built,

I insulated the walls with R13 fiberglass. I insulated the attic blown insulation recycled material at 6 inches deep.

My garage door is cheaply made, and has a few small gaps to the outside along the top.

I purchased a direct vent portable 10,000 btu AC, it really puts out some cool air.

Outside it is 94 today, kept my AC running at full blast for 5 hours and the temperature inside my garage stays at 81 degrees? At 94 degrees, it stays at 82 or 81 with no AC? So I’m getting no temperature drop to speak of. what gives? could the door be causing this much loss? Any tips? Thanks!
