Lets Get It Started, Lets Get it Started...




2x4's and Concrete Piers from Home Depot






Supplies are much much less expensive @ Habitat Re Store !(http://hfhsloco.org/restore/products)
$1.20 for a 2x4x12'


This is my first post on my first blog. I created this to track the progress of a "Blazona MD100" shed I am making in the summer of 2010. It is a 10'x10' shed and I am trying to use as many recycled materials as possible. Fortunately I have a Habitat for Humanity Re-Store on my way home from work (and I volunteer for them) so I am able to easilty stop in and see what they have that will help me out. I did quite a bit of research on this before choosing the MD 100 and found it to be the most straightforward (and smooth, modern looking) shed I could make given my time and budget. It's really more of a "Cabana" than a shed.

I hope it also helps anyone who is building one as I have not found out too many references for this shed on the Web, just some pictures. I will try to post some tips but probably can't respond to too many posts as I am just barely fitting this into a busy schedule!
