Final build cost for lean-to #1 is in, $1,960!!  Works out to $3.77/sq ft of usable dry storage area (520 sq ft).

That’s a lot of money for a basic structure!

The real question is how much less  and how much faster could someone else have done it for?
wow

You didn’t miss them. I haven’t posted yet. Still have some metal roof panels to put on and I need to paint the posts. Since I have everything purchased i just had to know the final $$s

Should have slapped an emoji or two on there! The sarcasm was very much lost on that one. Oops!

Ok so you I ran out of screws for the metal panels, so after buying more the total build cost comes in at $2,020.

Here are the completed pics.  I will be repairing/painting the shop in the summer/fall time frame.  When I do, I plan to add an overhang over the garage door and paint the trim black to have it all match.

That sure is a nice place to keep the trailer.  Well done!

Holy cow. I bet painting those rafters was the worst part.
