Comment on Building a Shed under a Deck by Alan Lilly

I can’t honestly say. It’s been a while since I built it. If I were to take a guess … I’d say, I spent more to build the small deck above it and that was about $1700. Having the concrete pad poured for the shed was the most expensive. There isn’t much to the shed as you can see… just some 2×4′s, plywood, a cheap window, vincyl siding (second most expensive), some cedar for the doors and a bunch of nails, screws and misc.

of course amazing, I love cnc machines and cnc workshops, although the machines are old but look amazing. Especially the pic of Chuck make me think my past.

Originally I was going to do a manual crank on my wall, but the electric hoist was so cheap and the engineering and effort is the same with either manual or electric. Wall or ceiling … you need to span a board across multiple studs or joists to spread the load. The other advantage to ceiling is the entire system is invisible. A manual crank takes a surprisingly long time to crank because you have to turn it a bunch of times to lift from the floor to the ceiling.

Hi Alan,

I am thinking of copying your nice design, except I’m considering using a manual hoist. What made you decide to go with a motorized hoist instead (besides convenience)? I’m thinking it might be a little tricky to sturdily mount the manual hoist to the wall. I suppose I could lag a large eye into the concrete floor and attach the hoist there, but then I’d lose the floor space and mobility in that area…

Cheers,
Brady

Great job with the lift. I made a trip to Harbor Freight and Lowe’s today to gather the required materials to build my own. Thanks so much for the pictures and instructions. What brand of trailer is that?
