- If I can do it... you can do it! This simple build is not only easy to do, it only uses:
3 each pressure treated 2x4x8's (base)
3 each 2x4x8's (ribs) you can use all pressure treated if you like
2 sheets of tin
some screws or nails
Tin screws with washers
3 pieces of tin ( 3ftx9ft)
1 piece of plywood (we used 3/4")
Paint (optional)
Cut one of the 2x4 in half.. these are the front and back of the base. Assemble the two treated 2x4x8's with the two treated 2x4's to form a rectangle.
Cut your arches. One is solid and one will have a smaller arch hole cut into it for the entrance. I just eyeballed it.
Using screws (I find them more reliable than nails) screw the arched back and entry to the short 2x4's that you cut to form your base.
Paint if you like.
Starting at the middle top of your arch place a 2x4x8 vertically to span from the front arch to the back arch. If it seems too short, don't worry, your screws will snug it up!
I chose to add the first sheet of tin to the top at this point. Center the tin on the rib and screw down to the rib. Then, using where that top piece of tin lands, I eyeballed where the next ribs would go. It's ok, the pigs won't complain.
Put in the next side rib and line up your tin, then screw that side to the rib. I also fastened the side tin walls to the bottom. If done correctly the tin will hit the bottom base.
Lastly, attach the next side rib and screw down your last side wall just like the other side.
There you go! Simple!

Thanks! The kids love it
Cute hut! Do they like it?
They LOVE it. One of the best builds so far!
Looks great. I like the design of it. Will it be movable?
Yes! I purchased 2 large eye hooks to screw into the front base board. I figure I can use a strong rope and pull it around with my ATV. Thanks for watching!
I wonder if we could leave the side open where you attached the 2nd panel and enclose both ends to use as a farrowing hut? Hmmm, you've got me thinking. Thanks!
I don’t see any reason you couldn’t!
