THE PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTING OF A WOOD SHED

THE BREAKDOWN

Over the Summer of 2023, me and a group of my friends travelled over to Knoydart, located in the Scottish Highlands. This was a trip ran by our school in order to help out the local community there. We felt as if a wood shed would be most beneficial for them as many tourists come to camp. This would improve the experience of travellers who came as they’d have a place to store firewood. This experience involved a small team of us deciding on how we were to design the shed and then build it. This experience strengthened my skills massively in not only building but 3D design.

THE CONSTRUCTION & PLANNING PROCESS

We began by placing four pillars down replicating the shape of a rectangle, making sure that they measured perfectly against one another. After doing this we assigned a few members of the group to begin sawing the wood for the others to place whilst a few others nailed them into place. Over the period of about six hours we were left with the final result which we were all very pleased and proud of.
