So with lumber prices doing what they are doing, and my budget doing what it has done, I need to keep costs down on my shed / shop build. I had been saving for a Tough Shed 12x16, but life happened.
I have seen a few cabin builds using lumber from stripped down pallets. I have access to a good number of sizeable pallets, and I have the pallet breaker tool that allows me to disassemble a pallet without knocking my brains out, or destroying the wood...
Anyway, just curious what I need to watch out for. I know to keep from needing HOA approval, and / or a building permit, I will need to stay under 200sq / ft, so the 12x16 is ideal, and I need to stay under 9' max height.
The biggest question I have is how do I connect to electricity if the building is a "Temporary shed".
IF I can pull it off, I am thinking insulated walls and ceiling / roof, with some peg board wall coverings. And an 8-12K BTU AC / Heater.
