    Hi all

    I'm hoping to find someone who can help me put together basic construction plans and materials spec for a self-build wooden shed for storage and a workbench. I have planning permission for a 6m x 4m monopitch design, 3m high sloping to 2.2m. Timber frame and cladding, profile metal roof, foundation pads. I am keen on a combination of Segal and Irish Venacular (http://www.irishvernacular.com), both of which are within my capabilities provided I have a plan to work to and advice on which materials to use. It would be perfect to have something like this: http://www.irishvernacular.com/step-by-step.html adapted to suit my design and extended for the whole build.

    This is part of the development of a larger rural site as a smallholding, including an offgrid strawbale house. I therefore have a very tight budget for both materials and fees, but would of course be happy to pay a fee for support.

    Anyone game...?

    PS I'm in Scotland

    I've seen reference to both but so far haven't seen anything as specific as you mention. I need to adapt the design to suit a monopitch roof on a non-residential building.
