Question:

Help building only the front of a barn?

It's for a display at my job.... I just want the front of the classic barn look.... any ideas on how i can do this?? Also I want to make a couple of silos to go with it any suggestions on this would be great... Thanks!

Answer:

Make it from 1 x 3s or lumber according to the size (width) you need. The attch some 1 x 4s to the back to hold it together. Paint it barn red. Then paint some other boards white for the trim. Fo silos, cut 2 pieces of plywood to the diameter you want. For each silo, use firring strips or 2 x 4s (depending on how sturdy you want it) cut to the height you want. Place at least 12-16 around the outer edge of the pieces of plywood and screw or nail together.
