Shed I built

[Kevin Johnson]

Hi,

Here are some pictures of a cedar shed that I built.  On this shed, the customer wanted beaded cedar siding so I ran the cedar siding through my router table to form the bead on the edge.

I made the window, the cupola, flower box and the doors in addition to framing and everything else.  On the doors, I had wished I had a domino, but that wasn't in the budget.  So I clamped the stiles to the side of an MFT and routed mortises for loose tenons.  I of course, did the same thing for the rails.  I used the TS 55 to cut the cupola from MDO and applied cedar to it.

The door lock was a full mortise lock set and I used the OF 1400 to plunge route the mortise for that.

working in minature makes the task that bit more exacting

this is the sort of project apprentice carpenters ought to be given, it teaches almost all the techniques needed to build a house

good work

Hi,

  Cool doors.  Is the shed about 4' x 8'?

Thanks for the compliments. The shed is 6x10.

Great job! You should consider making play houses for kids. And I liked the gratuitous inclusion of the Systainer in the shot!
