Here’s a how-to video produced by the folks at Jamaica Cottage Shop, a company in Jamaica, Vermont that builds shed and cabin kits. The video is a bit of an infomercial but it shows how prefab panelized kits are assembled. I don’t have any personal experience with this company so I can’t provide any kind of recommendation but their product sure seems like a good way to go for owner-builders that want an easy to assemble kit. The price seems about right for a kit of this kind too, but like any project the more work you do yourself the less money you end up spending.

great site. solid designs and extremely reasonable prices. I think it is worth your time to check this site out.
I don’t know why, but I can’t seem to locate this particular cottage on their website. All I can really see are sheds.
Here’s a link to a house that looks similar. It suspect it might be the same house. http://www.jamaicacottageshop.com/images/featured1.jpg
Click on the oval logo ‘Jamaica Cottage Shop’ and then on design portfolio. There’s lots of pictures and good ideas!
