Build a 4x8 shed for under $900 and flip it for $1,600 using this complete action checklist.
Based on: Build 10, Sell 10, Make $10,000 - How to Build a $1,700 Shed For $700! + Free Plans by Andrew Thron Improvements
What if you could build a shed this weekend that pays for itself ten times over? Not a vague idea — an actual, proven side hustle that Andrew Thron of Andrew Thron Improvements has already tested with a real Facebook Marketplace ad. The result? People are willing to pay $1,600 for a 4x8 shed you can build for $700 to $900. Do that math ten times and you're looking at $10,000 in your pocket.
Here's the frustrating reality most people face: shed prices at big box stores are absurd. A basic 4x8 shed runs $1,500 to $1,700, and it's flimsy. You know you could build something better for less, but you have no idea where to start — what foundation system to use, how to frame the walls, how to cut rafters, how to hang a door that actually works. You end up doing nothing, and the opportunity slips by another summer.
Now picture this instead. It's a Saturday morning. You've got your materials staged, your framing nailer charged, and a step-by-step checklist in hand. By Sunday evening, you're rolling your power washer into a brand-new shed you built yourself — or better yet, you're texting a buyer the pickup address. That's not a fantasy. Andrew built this exact shed on camera, solo, in about a day and a half while filming. With help and a clear plan, you could do it in a single day.
Andrew Thron is not just a YouTube creator — he's someone who has built multiple sheds, installed deck foundations, laid asphalt shingle roofs, and tested the resale market firsthand. He ran a live Facebook Marketplace ad to validate the $1,600 price point before recommending it to anyone. He made the mistakes so you don't have to — including installing a metal roof he now tells you to skip entirely. That kind of honest, experienced guidance is rare.
This checklist takes everything Andrew covers in the video — every measurement, every product name, every tool tip, every cost-saving workaround — and organizes it into a clear, sequential action plan you can hold in your hand on the job site. From marking your foundation to hanging the door to installing shed ramps, every step is here with the specific details that actually matter.

Every checklist item comes with actionable notes to guide you — things like "Don't forget to do this before you start," "Avoid this common mistake," or "Set a reminder for 30 days out." Nothing vague, just clear next steps.
