Why Build a Shed with 2"x10" Wall Studs?
We often build sheds and outbuildings using 2"x10" or 2"x12" LVL wall studs to create easily-configurable, built-in shelving. We chop up the scrap plywood sheating into supports and shelves. The shelves are set loose on top of their supports so that they can forever be removed and added to customize as desired. No tools necessary to configure.
