Hello and good evening to you all !

Here’s my first attempt at starting to build a shed out of completely free wood this so far has not cost a penny even the screws were gifted kindly by my dad

It’s 6ft x 4ft (maximum im allowed unfortunately) by 6foot high but it will have a pitched roof 90degree pitch 3foot wide, so it will be tall. If u can’t go out go up 
There are windows as such but white grape vine will cover that (with bit of luck)
As for light I’m a big user of solar panels so I’ll get a 40v one of them and hook a light up

I made a back out of pallets broken apart (took longer breaking them down than the whole shed so far  )  in a kind of over lap. I still need to paint it put some sealant on it just in case then paint it, not sure what colour tho I don’t want normal “shed” colour anyone got any ideas ? Any artist in Hertfordshire I’ll paint it white and crack on 

I also put in a floor ( from another skip) and I got some Lino that I’ll lay over the top and seal it so if anything is spilt it won’t damage the pallet base

(This has still been completely free so far I had to cave in earlier and got 1500 screws from 1 inch to 4 inch for 30 quid
Thanks for reading

(Don’t know why the pics are sideways sorry ... )

a 6x4 shed has plenty of space for the essentials.  I look forward to seeing the finished product.  But looking good at the moment.  Might be worth putting a preservative on all the wood especially on the floor wood, prior to painting it.  check with the allotment organisers what colour the shed can be.

Hey Snow White I hope your well, yeah I’m excited to see the endo product quote please so far as I am far from a builder don’t even know any builders for advice trial and error at the moment lots of errors
To be honest management is really flexible with me my plots right at the very back corner so unless you specifically go there you can’t see it from 3/4 of the way down the main path.
Would outdoor paint not preserve it then ? Or would I need 2 diff pots if that’s the case I’ll just go straight “shed” colour hard finding free paint lol
Thanks for the reply
