- To construct a new storage/implement shed. 12m x 15m shed design plans are attached. 30000 for the shed kit. Price is not including construction or a concrete floor to be done. There will be no need to clear any vegetation for the build. In discussion with PKB builders located in kapunda sa, to build the shed on my land. Depends on their costings to erect the building. If they are not used to construct, it will be a self build. Picture attachment is from Google earth screenshot of approximate lo407 YORKEYS CRSG WAMI KATA SA 5700Decision Made
