What type of shed do you want?
I have just finished a 21ft by 12ft workshop / shed.
It is breeze block construction on a concrete pad which is 4inches thick on
the floor and 8inches thick at the edges for the walls, which are 9ft at one
side and 7'6" at the other.
The roof consists of 12 lengths of 6X2 timber with 20mm OSB board on top and
finished with torch-on roofing felt.
One non-opening window.
Two double doors
Gutters, electrics and redering and tyrolean finish on the exterior.

Materials = £2500
Labour = 2 men for 7 days = £???? :-p

OTOH you can buy a self assembly one from B&Q for about £90, which would be
full if you hung up a pair of hedge clippers.

There are no limits on the amount you can spend, nor on the design you want,
materials you want it built from, how secure you want it or how long you are
expecting it to last, you've got to decide these before you do anything.

If you intend having a felt roof my advice is to use heavy duty roofing
felt. This should last 10 years plus, whereas basic shed roof felt is
unlikely to last more than 5 years.

Dave Fawthrop dave hyphenologist co uk Google Groups is IME the *worst*
method of accessing usenet. GG subscribers would be well advised get a
newsreader, say Agent, and a newsserver, say news.individual.net. These
will allow them: to see only *new* posts, a killfile, and other goodies.

The message

That's what I went in for - nine years ago.

10X8 is the size, not the construction type, nor a design.
