What is best way to erect shed under existing carport using interlocking panels and U channel for base? Is it necessary to build entire wall first and then raise into place as interlocking pans need at least 90 degrees movement to interlock correctly?
Problem with trying to use rollers is that the new shed will be attached to carport roof and floor, hence no room for using rollers. Also, there are too many items in way to completely build the shed and then put in place. I’m guessing that building a wall at a time and then sliding into place is best way to go. This, even if I have to put U channels (top and bottom) in place after. I think they will slide into place and still be plenty of room to attach to roof and cement floor.
build in driveway first, then use rollers to slide under car port

Plastic outdoor sheds are cheaper than wooden sheds, but costlier than metal sheds.
I recently bought a plastic resin storage shed (10 x 10) for about $1600. A similar metal shed would have cost one-third that price — but I stay away from metal because of durability & maintenance issues.
All the sheds I’ve built / bought over the past 15 years have been either plastic or wood. They are easy to install and very durable.

Hmm. Was thinking of furniture or suitcases, so maybe on the wrong track there..
Actually a bit concerned as someone I know has been storing a hoover in theirs!
Depends entirely on how the shed was built. Because most sheds are unheated, condensation can be a problem, so moisture-sensitive products probably shouldn’t be stored there. Shed construction is usually not good enough to keep out small wildlife like mice.
What do you want to store?
I store stuff like holiday lights, miscellaneous hardware, pet crates, lawn furniture, tools like shovels and spading forks in ours.

We are wanting to build a shed ourselves but would like some plans so that we know what specific supplies we need. It needs to have a Gambrel (barn style) roof, and we are putting it on cemented in post.
Try googling Mother Earth, not sure of actual URL address. Or, use either google or yahoo with search words How to build storage sheds.
As with other answer, you can usually find the materials and some very basic printout plans you would need by going to a big box home improvement center to the building materials department and looking for the Design It Yourself kiosk. That is a computer that asks you what you want to do then guides you along its program.
The Mother Earth thing is a holdover from the old days when you could buy the Mother Earth catalog, which was chock full of a wildly varying type of subjects and articles. It was a valuable source of information back then. Am not sure they still publish the catalog, but do think they may have converted to a magazine of sorts. In any case, the site does have lots of testimonials and how to articles, you just have to search.
Finally, your library reference section should have books you can check out that will do two things–first is show you all the various sheds you might like to try out then buy the plans, second are some books on actually how to do it and what materials you will need.
Good luck. BTW, Wikipedia does have similar material and you might find something there too.
