Im am tryin to build a shed as cheap as possible my idea is to have a few posts in the ground and build around them using pallets and other bits and peices is this a good way or does anyone else have a better suggestion thanks a lot.

That would probably work OK. Doors are good for walls. You can get treated timber for the posts quite cheaply and either concrete them in or metpost them. If you put shelves up inside it will help to brace it all.
Sit the floor on treated timber too - on slabs if possible.
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

hello!

heres my 12x10 pallet shed. ok the front isnt and the door isnt, but I did find the wood for the front there.    :lol:

I made panels and then secured them to an old stall frame.

only had to pay for felt and screws to hold the thing together, and the stain/preserver. its all one colour now, with lights AND radio  :shock:

I hope to be getting a plot soon, and i am a complete newbie regards growing anything!!. Good reading on this site and nice folks too.

heres some pics of it when being built.

thanks Shaun.

The stall frame could be troublesome to lay hands on in hindsight, but a simple wood frame with decent uprights could just as easy have been used and would probably be better for fixing to :)
