The 12' x 8' 3-Wall Deck Sukkah

I built this Sukkah last year. It was intended to be easy to put together, compact to store, strong enough to take a beating from the wind, and durable enough to last many years. Probably, it is over-engineered.


It is made from plywood panels and 2"x2" pine lumber, joined with bolts and screws. It has 7' high walls, and is the perfect size inside (about 12'x8') for a 6' rectangular table and 6-8 chairs.

It is a 3-wall design, which uses the door-wall of the house as its main entry and 4th wall.

I didn't record how much the materials cost, but at the time I think it came in at around $250 for everything, including the pre-manufactured bamboo roof material.
