wooden garden sheds
I was wondering how much work would be involved in turning a wooden garden shed into a micro cabin?

I was thinking about using this plan as a basis for the micro cabin.

16 feet wide by 12 feet deep is larger than some of rooms in boarding houses that i’ve lived in before so it wouldn’t feel cramped.
Plumbing is called an outhouse and heat would come from a small wood fireplace, air would come in through the window, electric would be handled by solar & wind power, insulation is put in during construction, besides a mobile home would be able to make it where i want to build the micro cabin.

It’s going to be rustic, but I think it could be done. A major impediment could be local building regulations.

I see the biggest issue could be that it’s not airtight. Housewrap and insulation may cure that. Get a good foundation and upgrade the window(s) to multipane.

Sounds like a wilderness adventure.
