What other options do you have for supplies (sawmill?)? Just helped a guy put up some rafters made of 1x6's nailed together with 2" blocks (doubled 1x6's) as spacers. Gave him a 4x6 rafter that is stronger than a 2x6. Set 1 meter oc and and covered w/ 1" boards and roll roofing. Sides were sawmill slabs on a building that needed a little security and tarps on two shelters. Corner posts, stringers, and side framing was 4-6 inch pine logs (real easy to get in our area). We put up 2 13'x 20' 3 sided (tarp) shelters and a 13'x13' slab walled w/ door and the cost was 200 bucks tops... Of course wood prices could be different for you.
