What am I in for?
>>2986081Wishing you just bought materials and built a normal shed.Or bought an old box truck and just set the box on blocks.
>>2986081What's your next project after this? Burying a shipping container?
>>2986085Why
>>2986090A water closet/bathhouse/sauna to keep my 55 gallon barrels from freezing and to shower and do laundry and dishes
>>2986081Cover in stucco.
>>2986148>>2986148That sounds...like a lotta work, something a goyim might doNot God's Chosen Superior Master Race.Oy Vey. It's anudda shoah.It's just gonna be for storage anyway goy, are you mesuga?Oy Gevalt this antisemitism is making my fibromyalgia flare up I need my daily allotment of matzah balls and gefilte fish spoonfed directly to my Jewish tummy
>>2986081wuda retardedass design. the walls have no vertical strength plus a perfect buckle hinge in the middle. so even if you used posts to support the roof like a pole varn the pallets wouldnt be anything but essentially siding except with more assache. plus good luck insulating inside them thus completely defeating the purpose of a wall voidand you obviously havent hauled many pallets bone because youd have figured out they are not ever the same size so each would have to be stripped and cut to fit amd those corkscrew nails they use are an absolute bitch to pull and usually bust the board in the process. oh and youd better have a case of new saw blades for all the random nails and staples youll hit t. knows better than to try and build shit from junk pallets
>>2986121Breaking down skids is tedious and sucks. The wood is often contaminated and already splitting.You could unironically just buy osb and barn paint and make a shed that would last just as long.If you don't care about how it looks, and I assume you don't since your asking about pallets, then I'm telling you, just get a old box truck and remove the box off it and put it in your yard. I've had one as a chicken coop for like 10 years. Before I owned it, it was a shed someone else used for like 15 years. Its a old keeblers truck. I use skids to stack firewood on so it doesn't get muddy or rot prematurely.
>>2986090>Burying a shipping containerIf anyone gets any ideas from this, don't. Not unless you want to get crushed to death from the walls or roof collapsing. Dirt's heavy, and sea cans are only made to take weight on their corners, not their panels.
>>2986121>water closetIf I ever catch one of you animals pouring out your shit bucket at the fence line again, you're gonna have a bad time. Keep away from your neighbors. Build your shed as far from others as possible and pour out your shit buckets close by and I won't bother you unless garbage starts blowing across the fence line. Toilet paper will dry out and blow along so use it sparingly. Also, shit inside your shed. No one wants to see another human being living like an animal, that's why we left the city in the first place.
>>2986189>>2986188It's just for storage but I need 10x20. I have 2x4s for framing but I didn't want to use them on a temporary storage shed, GPT told me the pallets could be used for framing. No insulation necessary. If the design is as flimsy as you say I guess I'll order some OSB to be delivered and build a 10x20 frame and some additional metal siding but that's not free...I guess I might insulate it and make it a long term storage building I can hang out in maybe at night with a camp stove so I can keep doing gamedev high on Vyvanse while dogbert sleeps in the house. Any advice on just a frame style shed that won't fall apart?
>>2986237I don't want neighbors and it's annoying how most land is in subdivisions now. I of course am looking at the most forested, isolated properties so that's not going to be an issue. The WC is just for storing my water supply so it doesn't freeze until I can afford a well, it also operates as a sauna and a bathhouse thanks to an enclosed room with a stove and Japanese Style bathtub where I'll do my laundry and hang it up in the next room where the water is stored. I'm just going to shit out of sight deep innawoods in a home made toilet with a deep hole dug and cover it up every time with ash so no risk of TP and I have a travel bidet as well>>2986238If it's going to cost a lot I might just buy a shipping container for storage but I really do want to hang out in there at night...but that probably isn't a good idea for most of Winter anyway to keep both a tiny camp stove and the wood burning stove fed while I'm trying to concentrate on gamedev, maybe I'll skip cold nights altogether? Fuck idk. Yeah I really don't want to waste that framing I'm going to build an Earthship with it.
>>2986081Perfect for your imitation crab meat if you have too much
>>2986254It's just for totes and boxes. Maybe a bed to chill in with my laptop coding late into the night while the dog sleeps. It's a hell of a lot cheaper than a shipping container that costs $1200 before delivery plus the pavers. I want to build it on some old decking I have which will be placed on pavers on a leveled area I pay for alongside a 10x20 I purchased to live in. I just can't afford to waste a single cent nor any framing or building materials I have saved for my Earthship that I will be building basically from the start of living there. I also need a well and septic so if I can save on framing, siding, roofing , etc just to have a temporary place that ensures my main living shed isn't cluttered then yeah it would be similar to storing imitation crab meat. Of course it's gotta be covered in siding but I'm thinking just some cheap rusty old metal sheets or hell, scrap to cover the gaps and tarps to keep out the rain and snow. GPT and Claude said that using pallets as framing isn't such a bad idea and there are YouTube videos of people doing that too. I don't know about wasting money anymore, the pallet shed is basically $0 cause I already have tarps and scrap to keep out weather and rodents and it's only temporary until the Earth ship is built, then I'll just smash it with a hammer and burn it before it dilapidates
>>2986238My advice?Buid it on high ground, not a ditchBulld it so the entrance is away from the weatherKeep it stupid simple (less to wrong wrong and less complications in fixing stuff)No windowsOne doorFlat angled roofDirt floorSheet metal roof.Leave a vent under your flat roof to allow heat to escape.If it's actually temporarily just slap up OSB and paint it. My neighbor has had a temporary shed of OSB for almost 3 years now that's just starting to warp, rot and decay. You can get an extra 2 or 3 years with some fence or barn paint.If it's permanent, get a box truck or shipping container. Level it follow my advice and just build a false wood wall and door at the entrance if you want.Skids are probably free cause you pay with your time. I also think about how insane and stupid it is have a split around the entire structure midwall (where the 2 skids stack for a wall)Pic semi related.
>>2986257Shipping containers are usually scam priced.You should be able to find a broken down box truck relatively cheap. Remove the back and place it in your yard. Cut out the roller door and frame with wood doors.If your talking about keeping life in there and not just inanimate objects. Everything changes. Also running power..everything changes.Now you will need to insulate and weather proof and add lighting.
I'm not fucking around about this.You can't build a barn this cheap anymore.I hate it lol.
500$s.A single piece of cheap foil sheet metal is like 20$.
>>2986313>>2986317>>2986318Zamndoe.
>>2986313>hipping containers are usually scam priced.They can be. But, they are way more structurally sound than a box van. So as long as you aren't paying assrape prices for them you do end up with an overall better end product. I live in the absolute middle of no where in the middle of the U.S. As far away from any sea ports as you can get and can get 40' high cubes for less than 4,000 and more like 3,000 if you find the right deal.20' ones come up.for around 2500ish, but they are in higher demand for people with less space to work with.
>>2986383I agree with you. I'd take a shipping container over box truck. But you can sound them up easily with 2x4 bracing inside.Honestly you got more to worry about with water leaking eventually. Mine is a old keeblers box truck. Its probably 30 years old from the time of it retiring.Its still standing perfectly and the inside has metal lattice. Its unironically a castle of a chicken coop. I was trying to balance everything. But Ideally, I agree with you. I rather a shipping container and then modify that.I think op wants a club house. In which case he just needs to run power to a tool shed. You can barely make out that is use to be a truck from the top portion under the roof, on the corners.The wood panel is just a wind block for the birds to exit.I been adding to this over the years with whatever scraps are around. Its just where they sleep at night. All the birds free range.
