Help! 12 x 12 Storage Building Material List? Cost?

[brunner]

I am going to be building a storage building soon behind my new home. I was hoping someone on TBH has an accurate materials list on exactly what I need to buy for a 12 x 12 storage shed with a slight pitch (not sure on pitch ratio). I will be doing everything myself and it will be on a foundation. If anyone has a list or examples of what they have done it'll be greatly appreciated.

It will need:

- double doors that open out to drive my lawn mower
- two standard windows
- 16 on 16 studs (preferably)
- OSB siding (I'll add additional siding with old barn wood and tin, rustic look)

Something similar to this link: http://www.betterthanmostbarns.com/B...le_2-2014.html

Any help it greatly appreciated!

I would go to Lowe's, they have a system program that can generate the B.O.M. and some renderings of what you want.

I thought so but the lady working the project desk at Lowes told me a contractor had to give me a material list and then they could draw it up as well as price. I thought that was strange because most people said they can give you a rough estimate on exactly what you want to build

You should talk to the guys in Millworks..Doors and trim...when I worked there we were the ones to do this..the PRO's desk, was more like a joke

I am looking to build a 20x20 or 20x24 builiding for tool storage, cleaning and butchering shed, man cave, etc room. It will probably be turned into a pool house in the future.

I am wondering how much this will cost also. Is it cheaper to use a metal framed building or a use studs and frame it all up?
