I built this 10 x 16 barn style shed to store lumber and some tools. I built it for less that $700.00 But I dont think you could duplicate it for that. I got some great deals on wood. The 2 runners under it are 4x6 creasote. The floor joist and studs and rafter are all glued together. Basicly I built frames or ribs. I built the first one and used it for the pattern for all the rest. As I stood them up I nails 1x4s on the inside untill I nailed the T111 plywood siding on the outside. Every place wood touches wood, it is glued with yellow wood glue. The floor is one layer of 1" toung & groove plywood. The roof is 1/2 plywood, tarpaper and 3 tab shingles and it has a 12" wirly bird vent. The 4ft french door unit was donated by my employer. All the rafters was made from scrap 2x4x4ft and the truss plates where scrap 1/2 plywood. Every crack and seam was caulked after it was built. I did this because I was going to be storing cabinet grade plywood in it and I didnt want to have a bug/tree roach problem. I think it could be built fairly cheep though.All I want is a 12x16 gambrel barn with a loft..
