Building a Workshop Shed In The UK From Scratch

  • Building a workshop has been a life long dream for me. Now, back in the UK. I'm building a new workspace from the ground up from scratch.
    For those with questions watch this Q&A too get more info: • Building a Workshop In...
    Any Questions you have please leave them in the comments and I'll do my best to get back to them plus I'll add them to and tips video that will come in the future.
    Tool & Material List: bit.ly/35P8Rg0
    Airtable: bit.ly/35RQ1ok
    Blender Precision Series: bit.ly/37WyGNB
    Questions:
    How much was it and how big is it?
    So keeping tools our of the pricing In total it came to around £1200 But this includes extra wood to make workbenches too. It's 2.9m by 2.9m . Has a close to 7-degree pitch and highest point is 2.49m. Keep in mind that I have completely over-engineered this workshop for 3 reasons. 1. I'm in Scotland and I get a lot of rain so I had to have a pitch on my roof. 2. I'm close to the sea and there is a field with an unobstructed prevailing wind so I get gusts of wind up to gale force 9 pretty regularly. I had to keep room for 100mm rockwool to make sure I could stay warm and more importantly that I would not bug the neighbours too much.
    Where is the power?
    All electrics are now in using office conduit. I got a pro for this as I'm not going to take responsibility for electrical work till I've got some real training. I'm sure you can see the conduit in some of my other videos. It goes right around the workspace.
    Your Door is upside down...
    Funny story really...
    Yup that is pretty much how I got the door plus I only really had one option to mount it as I wanted it to open outward to give me a little bit more room for larger projects in the future. Thanks for the heads up thou. I did spend about 20 minutes just looking at the door to think of which way round I should mount the freaking thing.... but oh well it works and it only cost me £5 so beggars can't be choosers.

    It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.

    As a quick insight to my background and knowledge of coatings, I was a spray painter at Disneyland in california for a decade or so but with the paint department for twenty-six years.
    If you can get your shop at least three or four feet high and it can be SAFELY blocked up and secured I recommend you rent an airless spray painter and apply the coating that way - we used bitumastic on the lower exterior surface of the 'submarines' we had, and inside of the trains steam tanks as well, and several other areas where deterioration due to water/rust or rot were a concern.
    But two things to know is, NEVER "test" the pressure of an airless gun like painter's do with an air supplied spraygun - YOU WILL LOSE YOUR FINGERS! as the pressure will flay (cut) your skin from the bone and this happened to one of our "Journeyman" painters no-less.
    The second thing is some people are VERY sensitive to bitumastic coming in contact with their skin so make sure you use a heavy duty spray suit, rubber gloves and proper spray mask if you decide to do this your self but if you don't want to spray it, get a brush similar to the ones used to wash a car with because they cover much better than a mop and will be much more manageable than a mop will be.
    Best of luck and if you have any questions contact me at:

    Jonathan, in all the years of extensive daily youtube viewing, you're the second producer I have contacted. I hope you are using your workshop for video production. Never have I watched such a potentially prosaic video where the production has been so marvellous. A little attention needed to splice the music seamlessly, but, nevertheless, a pleasure to view. So much so, I have lost the thread and will need to watch again, and perhaps again. I am smiling from ear to ear as I listen through headphones. Awesome! Watching again will be far from a chore.
    Not forgetting to mention how good your workmanship is on the build. Very impressed that you actually showed the dismantling of the old shed, which is an excellent touch - seeing the build process in reverse.
    Gonna watch again now, and my wife's invited this time. She's a real rock fan, so don't know how she'll react.
    Thanks a lot.

    @Stemlocksecurity 4 года назад +4

    Excellent workshop mate 👍🏻 bit of friendly advice though that codelock is not suitable for that purpose ideally use a 5 lever BS sash lock, codelock Is ok for interior office door but not for exterior door, Also hinges need replacing for more heavy duty. Sashlock will provide a lot more security. Other than that it's absolutely spot on what you've done as your first workshop

    Don't want to be cheeky, but just want to put it out there...
    I watch a LOT of maker content. And I know most people are doing it as a passion. But I learn SO much and it's all for free. So when there is someone/ something I like I always try to support them by using their affiliate links. In your case, I've checked the description for the blue thing on your driver, the Permavent and the tar paint and you don't have any. So just wanted to mention in case you want to look in to it.
    Also, although it's slim on details, the editing is fantastic!

    Excellent build of your shop, and although several people commited about your editing I would have preferred to have seen less of the 'showcasing' where each completed item was shown four or five times longer than necessary - ever since some of the game shows where models wander around the stage and point out the obvious has this become accepted even though not really necessary.
    I built an 8' by 15' shop in the backyard a few years ago and even though it was built on top of a 4" thick 16' by 20' reinforced concrete pad I applied two thick layers (four coats) over a two coats of roofing tar or 'bitumastic' coating over a two day period to protect the baseplates/baseboards from being infested by insects later or rotting due to water damage, and I offer this in hopes it will save someone some throuble with problems like this a few years after they've been built; several years later my Wife had a 10' by 12' by 13' high gambrel roofed shed with a mid- level loft built because she felt it would better suite my needs instead of my single story shop which at 8' wide proved to be too narrow to do some of my projects inside of.
    And the one thing I was proud of was it took two days of strenious work for it to be torn down - partly due to the 2"X10" steel connectors which were used during it's build - build it right the first time and they will treat you right, meaning they will stand the test of time, which yours will because of the care you took in building it.
    One question, what is the required "set-back required from your property line to where you can erect a structure (?), here in CA. It is 5' and I ask because it looks as though the distance from the sidewalls to the fence was about 3' or 4' so out of curiosity is why I ask.
    As I said, overall a very nice shop and thank you for sharing your expertise.

      Hey Larry, I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
      I appreciate that this style of video might not be your cup of tea. Considering I was aiming for a montage I thought I would go all out.
      That's a decent size build you made there. All I can say it that I love the stuff.... I really wish I coated my base with bitumastic paint too. In a few months time I'll be doing a 1 year review of the build and who knows I may add and fix some things what have been mentioned. I may have to jack up the build and paint the underside with a mop 😅.
      I happy to hear that you think i've built it "right" first time round.
      In regards to the set back. The UK is rather interesting.... *Please anyone reading this do not take this as legal advice and please do you own research* In my area as shed that is less than 12 m2, no higher that 2.5m can be right up to boundary lines within reason. Must be set inline or further back from the front of the house and must be a minimum of 5m for a public road. Once you pass 2.5m high. Then you start going into the realm of really pain in the but building code style stuff.
      and once again i'm so glad you enjoyed the watch 😀

    2. Was she available at your local industrial supplies depo or was she special order only?
    3. Was clothing an added cost?
    4. Did she come with instructions?
    5. Did she come with an extended warranty or did your have to pay extra for a life time guarantee?
    6. Does she follow directions?
    7. Would your recommend one like her to others or is she cost prohibitive?

    your going to want to put some kind of edge cap on the felt. you also need some end bits in each corner of the exterior to hide the end grain of the tongue and groove. things will move in winter especially those little tac nails. trust me u will be re nailing or even screwing in a year or two

    • @Keep-Making
      @Keep-Making  4 года назад +1

      Hey Welsh Maniacs,
      I don't know about the caps as it's all pretty much sealed off. As for the tacks holding the cladding. Ya I have a feeling I might have to screw them in too... I did have a little problem with cupping wood. But once I added my topcoat of sealing oil that pretty much stopped 90% of all my warping issues. Fingers crossed for a cold winter tho. It's been through once already but I would not really call it a "cold" one.

    @iamneallyons4263 4 года назад

    I think it's a solid effort mate - I would have maybe fitted the insulation boards in the flooring flush with the top of your timbers before covering it with ply - an maybe do some vertical batons on the outside of the breathable membrane before and attach the shiplap to them so you give a little space for the inside to breath out! Overall seems decent through, roof should be alright to as you've got a gutter up etc.

    • @Keep-Making
      @Keep-Making  4 года назад

      Cheers Iamneallyons,
      I'm glad you've seen the built form the point of view as a growing lesson for myself as it really is. The vertical batons for sure were needed but by the time I realised it was too late. I did talk to a joiner or two about that and they said I should be ok but to just keep an eye on it. As for the insulation under the floor I have had both advised to me form joiners and I did not know which to go with. So, in the end, I went with the one that I thought fitted best into my way of thinking. If to surfaces are super close then it can turn into a beautiful condition trap which Is the last thing I really wanted. As for the roof i'm more than pleased with it. I was a little worried when it was just the felt but once I put 2 layers of all-weather bitchumen paint on it I gathered it would be more than fine. Thanks for the kind words and letting me know for this I should watch out for in the future 😊
