There are also many disadvantages of choosing free plans. You need to spend time to choose and research. Most plans offer very basic blueprint and you have to work out the rest of them. If you just want a storage space, this is enough, but if you want it stylish, you need to come up with more design details by yourself. If you want to construct beautiful and complex shed, you have to figure out the details like how many skids and studs, material list, positioning plan, clear drawings of your shed, etc. The free shed plans won’t include those details and you have to spend more time for details. However, I prefer to use my imagination to make my shed individualistic, with my personality on it. If you want to be more professional, there are software dedicated to put them on computer.
