Canada’s Go-To Shed Plan Library

So forget the archive for a second. Here's all you actually need:

Walter's Shed-Builder's Shortlist — the 12 old workshop manuals I'd pull off the shelf for any outdoor build, with my notes on exactly what to take from each one: squaring and foundations, framing joints that don't sag, reading your lumber, and making the whole thing outlast you.

Take the Shortlist for $24.95 — and because I'm not going to split up a library, the other 135 books come with it. Free.

Everything is still included:

  • Walter's Shed-Builder's Shortlist (12 manuals + Walter's notes) — start here
  • The complete 147-book archive: all 13 subject areas, 1826–2012
  • Instant digital access — any device, download, keep forever
  • 60-Day Iron-Clad Money-Back Guarantee

No thanks — I'll figure the old-school tricks out on my own

No thanks. I'll pass. I understand this is my final chance to get Walter's Shed-Builder's Shortlist and the complete 147-book archive for $24.95, and that once I leave this page the archive goes back to its $596 retail price and the Shortlist won't be sold on its own — at any price, even if I wish to pay more later.

PLEASE READ THIS DISCLAIMER:

These plans are published here for educational purposes. Some of the older plans here will often need modifications for modern materials, and may need modifications to update them to modern safety standards. They provide conceptual information. Periodic changes in the National Design Specifications for Wood Construction, changes in building materials, snow load variations and the serious impact of deviations from the plan make it imperative that professional services be utilized to tailor these plans to your situation. The creator of this makes no warranty for these plans. You are solely responsible for how you use them. To summarize, we don't encourage anyone to build some of the major projects shown here "as-is" unless you are experienced enough in construction to make allowances to modernize some of the older plans. If you are interested in creating projects from these plans and don't have the requisite knowledge to bring them to modern safety standards, we insist you consult a professional.

Material quantities listed are indicative and intended for preliminary budgeting only. They should not be considered final totals. Minor variations or omissions may exist. Always verify with your local supplier or a trusted building professional before ordering materials.

Do not purchase materials or attempt to build this shed project unless you have studied the information provided thoroughly, and have verified all dimensions and material requirements for yourself. Also verify that the plans conform to local building codes and practices. Although every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information and design, the user is ultimately responsible for the use of this information. You, the plan buyer and builder, assume all risks and responsibilities associated with building this shed/barn.
