| Make a pencil mark where each bolt will touch the bottom of your walls. |
Measure the distance from the edge of the board to the center of the bolt. Mark this distance on the bottom plate of the wall. |
Use an electric drill with a forstner bit to cut shallow holes at each of the marks. |

| Set the first wall into place and put the bolts into these holes. Once the wall is level and plumb, affix a supporting brace to hold it in place. |
With the wall temporarily braced,use the nail gun to attach the wall to the sill. |
At the bottom of each exterior wall, nail the sheathing directly into the sill plate. |

| With all the walls in place, it is now time to install the roof trusses. Make sure that they are evenly spaced. |
Lay the stringer into the truss notches so that it spans all four trusses, and nail it into place. |
Hold the gables in position and nail them to the trusses. |

 |
| Attach the door to the shed and apply the decorative trim. |
After laying down the fascia boards across the trusses, install a drip cap along the roof's edge with the help of a nail gun. |
Staple down sheets of roofing paper at the bottom edge of the roof. Add overlapping layers of paper in rows until the peak is covered. |

 |
 |
| Use a nail gun to fasten a double layer of shingles to the bottom edge of the roof. Overlap a single layer of shingles just above this row, so the new shingles cover the nail heads in the row beneath. Continue this way to the peak. |
Turning to the solar roof, affix strips of double-stick tape to the top of the trusses. |
Lay the windows into place, making sure that they adhere to the tape. |
