- How to build a shed by yourself diy all steps included start to finish. Diy shed build. A lot of the same steps can be used for a cabin, tiny house, greenhouse, playhouse or any small building. Ever dream of a man cave or she shed to work in or play in? These buildings are so handy to have, you could even live in one! This one is rustic rough cut board and batten. I love how it turned out!
bit.ly/RuggedWood here you can get the RUGGED wood treatment for the siding.
I LOVE how it turned out on my shed siding!!
bit.ly/ShedDoorHandleLock here is the locking handle I used.
bit.ly/HeavyDutyHinges here are the heavy duty black hinges.
bit.ly/DoorBarrelBoltLatch here are the barrel bolt latches for the door that mostly stays shut.
bit.ly/CarriageBolts here you can check for carriage bolts but you may be better off getting them at a local place.
bit.ly/CordlessTools here you can check out some nice cordless tools if you want some to make the job easier.
bit.ly/TapeMeasureMax if you need a good tape measure these are my favorite.
bit.ly/Window24x24 here you can find a pretty cheap window as well. Otherwise I would recommend the Lowes one.
There's probably more I could add but all I can think of for now.
www.csgnetwork.com/foundations... here is the one calculator I liked for squaring the building.
www.blocklayer.com/square-lay... here is a second one.
Here is the video timeline if you want to skip ahead since I know it's a long video. You can't have a very detailed shed build without it being long. ;)

Hey guys what do you think would you like to make a shed like this too?
bit.ly/RuggedWood here you can find the RUGGED wood treatment stain if you want to use it too. Good luck with your build!!
I LOVE THE STAIN FINISH! I WANT TO DO MY TINY HOUSE IN THIS COLOR!
Thanks I’m glad you like it!
It’s been a year. How do you like the shed now? Wish it was bigger? Anything you would have changed? I’m thinking hard about building this to use as a wood working shop, but using a slanted/lean to roof…most vids call for that T1-11 siding..:but that’s $30 a sheet where I am. I can do zip sheathing for that price point
It’s actually been 2 years now as it took me a while to edit all that footage. Overall I love it! I didn’t want to make it bigger because I wanted a shop. I didn’t want this to be the excuse to never build one. Lol. Overall it’s a really nice size for what I do. Storing stuff but also have a workbench on one side. I use most of the attic for storage too. It’s amazing how much you can fit in one of those.
Actually looking at building the same size with a 6' porch and more of a cathedral ceiling. Mine would be on a slab 16x16 tho. I'll let you know in 2035 once it's finished....lol
I'm one sick dude! I sat and watched this whole thing, and have no plans to build a shed. But you did a wonderful job, and in a professional way, made it very interesting. Great job for sure! You sure know your stuff!
Haha that’s awesome. Wow it’s a long video to just sit and watch. I’m glad if you enjoyed it. Thanks for letting me know. 👊
@@SmartEasyDIYer better then any home improvement show on TV thats for sure.
Lol. No. It is neat to watch someone build from the ground up. Maybe will do this one.
I did the same. Watched it right through with no intention of building myself shed at any time in future. Agree a fantastic, thorough job
Haha thanks! 😁👊
By the way, I forgot to tell you because you threw me for a loop with the Tiny house comment. You did a great job, not only on the shed but the video and information in the about section including the indexing. Excellent my man!
Hey thanks so much for letting me know! I appreciate it. Are you thinking of doing a tiny house too?
Smart Easy DIY, LMAO... YEAH SURE. I’m on it
😂😂

Best DIY shed build in all RUclips. I watched and not even building shed! Just really enjoyed it ~ Thanks
Thank you I appreciate you letting me know! 👍
Not often you find someone around here willing to take you through all these steps without trying to sell you something. Thank you for taking the time to share this :o)
Thank you I appreciate you letting me know! I’m glad if you enjoyed it. 😊
That, sir, is one beautiful shed!!! I can easily see one foot taken off the length of that, a different door, two side windows, a tiny fireplace, a bed, a table, a couple or three chairs, a portapotty, a four foot claw foot bath tub/shower and dang, my own private Walden. What a beautiful build!!!!! Thank you, sir, for the inspiration!!! Me and mine wish you and yours all things great and good!!! Take care, be safe, all my best and God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas, USA. 🤠🐩✝️🖖👍
Hey Chuck thanks for the very nice comment and kind words I really appreciate it!! I can see it as well! That would be a beautiful setup. That’s the beauty of a building like this is you can make it however you like. 😊 blessings to you guys as well. 🙏
I just finished my own version of your shed design. Thanks so much for making this video, it was incredibly helpful. By the end of the project, I couldn't tell you how many times I rewatched it. It was a lot! Ha. From beginning to end you taught an excellent course in shed building and really carpentry in general. I'm a total rookie at this stuff and was able to pull it off. It took me forever and I spent more than you did, but the end result is a really great looking shed. I could go on and on about the mistakes I made and lessons learned. I'll refrain. Mainly I just wanted to say a big thank you for taking the time to film your project in such a clear and thorough way. Awesome video all around.
Hey Andy thank you so much for letting me know!! That means a lot to me. I’m so proud of you for not being afraid to make mistakes but learning and keeping on going!! Is there a chance you would send me a final picture of your shed? Fb or insta or my email which is in the (about) section of my channel. thank you. 😊
My pleasure. I'll email some pics, but here is one for those reading these comments: i.imgur.com/Y9iWJg1.png
Andy Ros
@Andy Rose, we all make some mistakes starting out. That’s how we learn. As long as you learn from those mistakes, you’re on the right track. Even if I learn 1 or 2 things watching these videos, I greatly value them. 👍
no way.. one pic'd is ur build.. WOW
awesome.
I haven't watched every shed video, but I've watched a bunch. This is the best of all I have seen.
Thank you I appreciate that! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Best shed build DIY ever! I'm so envious of your shed!
Thank you so much I appreciate the feedback!! 😊
Brilliant video on building a shed. I know it ended up taking way longer to build it because you were having to docufilm everything step by step but man is this appreciated. Your video is clear, concise and the explanations provided make it easier for the average diy person to follow.
This is the best shed building video I've come across on RUclips.
Thanks for doing it!
Thank you so much for the feedback AB I appreciate you letting me know! Overall I’ve gotten some very good feedback on this from my watchers which helps me know for future videos. 👊
I like watching someone who takes care and pride in their work. Great Job!
Thank you much appreciated! 😊👊
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed watching you build this shed. I really liked the little pointers you gave in cutting the wood and the sheet metal. I know these videos take a lot of time to make, so thank you for sharing it. Also, that stain is fabulous.
Thank you so much for letting me know I really appreciate it!! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊👊
I've watched a LOT of shed builds on YT the last 8 months while I've been building my shed. I have to say, you do impressive work sir.
Thanks so much I appreciate you letting me know! Good luck with your build.
One of the most thorough shed builds on RUclips. I enjoyed your video immensely and found it incredibility informative. The descriptions for all your steps and your demonstration of how to build the shed with one person was excellent. Thank you very much for the video. Keep making them and all the best to you. Wonderful.
Thank you so much I really appreciate you letting me know!

Spent my first hour of fathers day alone drinking coffee and watching your video. Thank you and happy fathers day
Thanks Bryan I’m honored! 😁 happy Father’s Day to you!
Really cool work!
I'm going to build one for sure
Thanks Jerry! Good luck with building it!
You, my friend are amazing to take the time out of your life to make this video and be as detailed and informative as can be! thanks :)
Thank you I really appreciate that! I’m glad if you enjoyed it. 😊
The truss jig is gold! Simple and brilliant.
Awesome thank you for letting me know! 👊
Wow I love the detail and thoroughness of this! Thank you!!
You’re welcome. Thanks so much for letting me know!! 👍👍
If there’s ever a hurricane or earthquake it’s good to know you can all run to the shed for absolutely safety. Beautiful work. Love your meticulous attention to details.
Haha thank you! It’s on skids so not tied to the ground but it’s solid! 😁
@@SmartEasyDIYer built proper and heavy duty, when i saw the 10'x10' shed at home depot for $1000 i was not impressed with the lousy 2x3 construction.
Thanks. I agree
2 minutes into this and this is the best video I've seen! Excellent! Master builder with a Docttorate in education! Thank you.
Thanks dad I appreciate it!
Sweet shed man! Those 2 little rascals are gonna enjoy your hard work for many years to come.
Thank you! Yes they will and I’ll get to enjoy them too 😁👊
Your work is second to none may God continue to bless you and your family great work bottom line
Thank you so much Patrick! God bless you and yours too.
I had zero intentions of watching this entire video, & yet here I am @ the end. Great video & great job on the shed! Thanks.
Wow it’s quite a long video to make it the whole way! 😁 thank you!!
Whats really cool is the aged look from real age. because there is contrast between the wood that is exposed and wood that is more sheltered. Love the stain and how it instantly adds that character.
Thank you for the feedback! I appreciate it. Yes I still love it too. It lightened up a tad and is a hint more brown now which i really like.
I've seen a lot of shed building project but this is by far the best one I've seen on RUclips! Your photography is excellent and you explain each procedure carefully and thoroughly! Excellent job on the shed too.
Thank you John I appreciate that a lot!! Thanks for the feedback! 😊👊
@@SmartEasyDIYer . M
M&m?
You are the MAN By far the best explained video I have seen anywhere on building sheds. Also having the cost and material list is by far the best ever... Thank you
Hey man thanks I really appreciate you letting me know! It means a lot and makes me want to do more projects. 😊👊
That's a "extra cool" she'd, because it's made to be rustic, it's the best she'd ever!, It brings back she'd building memories, to be woodsy is where the hearts at
Thanks! 😁👍
As a old carpenter/ drywall hanger, and pretty much all around construction guy. I am totally impressed with your video as it was so well done and well explained. The old saying that you can't teach a old dog new tricks, well friend you just gave this old dog a ton of new ideas. God bless you and yours, I think I have the gift for my beloved wife of 36 years. Once again Blessings!!
Wow thank you so much that means a lot to me!! I really appreciate you letting me know!! That’s so nice that you’re going to spoil your wife I’m sure she will love it!! Blessings to you! 😊
Such an excellent build, I had no Idea the video was slightly over an hour!
Thank you CJ!
Thank you for this very informative video. Some would cringe at the length, but I appreciate every small detail. Explaining even the small stuff helps DIYers like myself. With this guide, I feel a lot better about attempting a shed build of my own.
Thank you so much I really appreciate the feedback!! I know that was my intention of making it so long and very detailed because I got tons of questions on a previous shed video I did and they wanted more information so there’s lots of it. Lol. Thanks again and good luck on your project!! 👊
You must be an architect, a math professor, a Carpenter and a movie director all combined! Congratulations!
Wow that’s a pretty tall order. I’d feel really accomplished if I was all those. 😁 Thank you!
By far the best DIY explanation I have ever watched. You sir are T.V. Grade quality. Thank you for sharing. I am doing my 😅win shed build in the spring. I was so so worried about the trusses. Not any longer, because of your explanation on this video. Thank you.
Thank you so much. I appreciate you letting me know! I wish you the best with your project.
Thanks for taking the time to make the video - I’m scouting the internet for tips to make a tiny cabin as a temporary home while I renovate a house and this video is saved for future reference. Love the attention to detail and explanations. Thanks again!
You’re welcome I’m glad if it was helpful! Good luck with your research!
This is actually the best video I found in youtube and also giving out all the ideas for free without selling something. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much I really appreciate the feedback!!
We are looking for the best guide to build a shed .... I agree this is the best of many.Now,let's put my husband to Work 🧐
@@belindaaquilino9580 Yes put him to it! :)
I don't know the first thing about building but your video makes me feel invincible!!! I can do it!!!!
Awesome you go! Good luck with your research and planning. 😊
I've just gotta say.... That is one sexy shed. Your attention to detail with the trim work really paid off, it looks amazing!
Thank you I really appreciate you letting me know! 😊
I'd simply like to say, "thank you" for doing this video. Excellent and most of all inspiring!
Thank you I appreciate the kind comment!
Wow , awesome video! Thank you for making this amazing video. I just completed a 5 week carpentry/ construction course and you reinforced everything I learned, we made a similar shed but using plastic siding and exterior doors. I'm following your plans because I like the look of wood better. I want to let you know how much I appreciate you taking the time to video all the steps, with complete explanations and then time stamped it. You're awesome, you must love what you do, it shows! I will definitely be watching for more videos, thanks again.
Thank you I appreciate you letting me know! That’s great you are learning all you can. Good luck with your build!
Great simplistic build and FINALLY someone else who prefers to not suck up VOCs off of toxic OSB. I refuse to use that also and don't like the off gassing of chemicals for anything I'm sharing breathing space with. Plywood or Bust! Cheers and Peace Out
Thanks man! Yes I don’t like the smell or off gassing from it at all. I avoid it as much as I can.
@@SmartEasyDIYer Allot think it's approved so it's ok, ya so was asbestos and later urea formaldehyde insulation. 25-30 years down the road will tell the damage. Not that plywood is not also chemically fastened together but the amount is night and day compared to OSB and the different particle woods they push out these days as safe plus the fact plywood off gases during the curing process.
Nice! I am looking to use up a bunch of scrap wood that came with my house when I bought it - this gave me so much information I wish I'd had when I built my tiny house too!
Thanks for letting me know. Better late than never I suppose. Good luck with your next project!
So grateful for this video! I’ve been learning as much as I can as I plan a pretty big treehouse for the kiddos. No building experience at all, and I’ve had such a hard time finding clean, clear, videos that aren’t in context of residential codes or using CAD software for design. I watched this whole video while taking notes and learned so much. Thank you! 😁👍
Hey Aaron thanks so much I really appreciate the feedback!! I’m glad if it was helpful. That was my hope in making it because I got so many questions about little details on the last shed video I did. The other one I didn’t wanna make it too long but I got so many questions I decided I don’t care how long it is this one is going to have details. 😁 thanks again!
The quality of this video is excellent, a pleasure to watch and very informative. A true craftsman. Thanks!
Thanks so much! 🙏 😊
Great video. Know for sure the two inspectors that showed up are very proud of your job. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thank you so much for the feedback! Yes the inspectors still love it to this day. 😉
I would never have thought you could do that kind of a job alone, good job...
Thank you!
This is absolutely the best video I have ever seen on building a shed, you covered every detail and how you solved any problems as they came up. I'm about to start building several sheds for locations throughout my property, so I'm saving this in my Watch Later file, so I can come back to it anytime I need it. Fantastic work!
Thank you so much that means a lot! I appreciate you letting me know. Sounds like you got some fun projects going. I hope it goes well! 😊
love my watch later file!
👍😁
I’m really glad I stumbled onto your channel ! This episode is perfect timing and you made it easy to follow and understand !
Thank you so much! Good luck with yours.
For sure a lot of people are going to have a Bad Case of "SHED ENVY"!!!! I know I do :-) Excellent job of explaining step by step...nail by nail and board by board!!! I have watched a lot of video's on sheds, general construction, etc. and I must say your VIDEO is #1 that I have seen. You even supplied a material list and suggested products as well. GREAT JOB and thank you so very much. God's blessings. Totally amazing.
Wow Sandra thanks for letting me know! That means a lot I really appreciate your feedback and kind words!! I’m glad you enjoyed it and that it was helpful.
Very nice. You have good attention to detail and your presentation is excellent. Good job my man and thank you for sharing.
Thank you for letting me know!
Beautiful work! Love your meticulous attention to details! This has got to be the best video on building a shed out there to date! Thank you for covering every detail and how you solved problems as they came up. Keep up your great work and know that you are a great influence and inspirations to many DIY-selfers out there, I know that I am one of them.
I am about to start my out large shed/garage project, and will let you know how it turned up once it is done.
Thank you so much I really appreciate you letting me know! I hope your project goes really well be sure to let me know. 😊
An excellent video. I'm getting ready to build a shed for my church, and this video gave me a lot of good ides. Thanks.
Awesome I’m so glad! That’s so great you plan you do that. Thanks
Can’t stress pre drilling enough! That metal roof is beautiful until a rogue driver bit gets loose on it!
Yes!
Thank you! Perfect example of a very efficient how to video. (71 year old carpenter)
Thank you I appreciate that! 👍
I only have 2 words "Thank You"
Thank you that means a lot! 😊
I've always tried to figure out how to build a shed for my kids. I tried several plans but always got stuck along the way. I'm glad I found this Ryan's shed plans [ Go Here >>> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. It has made the work become as easy and simple as I never thought it will be. Thank you Ryan!?
Thank you for sharing this video! I was able to finally build my shed thanks to your help. You earned my sub!!
Hey thanks so much for letting me know. Great job!! I appreciate your support too! Send me a pic on Instagram if you have it. 👊
Living the dream, Heath, living the dream. Be safe & I'll catch you on the next one, absolutely!
😁👍
I have watched all kinda of videos. And i appreciate that you took that one little extra atep in describing why you did that. That thinking turned on the tetris part of my mind.
Thank you Henry I appreciate you letting me know!!
Very detailed, and very well built. I would say overbuilt for a shed but that's how I like to do things myself. Most commercial sheds just seem flimsy.
Yes most of the ones I seen were not built well at all. Thanks for the comment slim.
I agree with Stanley Smith this is an awesome video. Covers every little pea picking detail.
Quality workmanship for sure. I would have mine left natural and natural color.
The size is perfect also and I can see a full-width workbench across under the window.
Congrats man it looks fantastic.
Thank you so much!! Yes it’s each to their own on the natural color I didn’t want mine to Gray unevenly and I really like the color that I chose I’m very happy with it so yes each to their own. I like the workbench idea. 😉
The amount of knowledge I gained from this video is priceless. I am building an off grid shower house and can't wait to apply what I've learned. Thank you thank you!!
Thank you for letting me know. I’m glad if it was helpful! Good luck with your project. Sounds like a fun one
That shed is easily 10 times the quality of anything you could buy. Also a fraction of the price. Nothing beats some do it yourself ingenuity! Awesome job 👍
Thank you! I agree it’s so much better quality to build your own. 👍
This is the best construction video I watched that covers pretty much everything in a very uniformed and orderly way. My only dislike is just a matter of preference on the aged patina look on the wood. I prefer painted or a freshly stained look.
Thank you very much for the feedback I really appreciate it!! Yes the look of the rugged wood treatment certainly isn’t for everyone but with my setting and being in the woods and liking rustic type stuff I love it! You can certainly paint it or stain it however you want. You could also just use T111 siding or some thing. I just wanted to show how I did it with the board and batten since most of them are t111 it seems. Thank you.
Loved the aged‼♥️
Smart Easy DIY k
stanley smith lol, the ONLY reason I clicked on this video is because I wanted to know how he got that awesome color/patina. Everyone has different tastes I guess
Marcia Mc Clean Thank you I’m glad you like it!! 😊
This is the most informative video I have ever seen. All the tips and explaining why you're doing things certain ways is priceless!
Thank you so much I really appreciate you letting me know!
This is the most informative video I have found on building a shed! Thanks and Great Job!!
Thank you!
So clear foundations tips like crown down and walking on joust etc. Etc. It's a good learning for me. God bless you. Thanks
Thank you I’m glad if it was helpful! God bless.
EXCELLENT! I cant wait to build my new shed/tiny home! Thank you so much for listing all of the materials & tools you used!
Thank you! Good luck with your build!
You're very talented Drew, the very good-looking shed and you explained everything very well. Nice job.
Thank you very much I really appreciate the feedback!! 👍👊
Built like the pyramids... built to last. First time I've seen a shed buid that could stand up to our northern snowloads ! Fantastic !
Thank you! Yes it’s handling snow like a champ 😊
Excellent tutorial on a shed build. Very clearly done and I encourage you to do future builds.
Thank you.
Thank you Ron I appreciate the feedback and encouragement! 🙏
Back in 2011 I rebuilt my shed taking out an old 7’ X 10’ (old fashioned hand built, probably 25 years old) on a weak concrete slab, upgraded to a 10’ X 14’ and 8’ tall on a 4” concrete slab with a 10’ X 10’ approach on the alley side. It has a service door opposite end of the alley end that has a 7’ X 8’ roll up door (motorcycle access) and a horizontal long window on each side wall.
I watched your video to see how someone else might/would build their own..
I must say the attention to detail you showed and narrated was impressive. Also talking about how others might convert it into a tiny home or cabin and preparing the subfloor for insulation was totally unexpected but welcomed.
I’m now afraid you have a new subscriber in the works...
P.S. with my full size Goldwing Motorcycle, Snowblower, Lawnmower and other small items in the shed it’s amazing just how fast it filled up...
Haha thanks I would appreciate the support! It was fun reading your story. Sounds like you got a much better setup now. Yes if I was to park a motorcycle and a bunch of other equipment I would run out of space very quickly. Lol. Thanks again! Take care.
Wow I really love look that rustic wood treatment is the best, I almost want start a project just justify using some
Thank you! I really like how it turned out too. You could probably think up some project. 😉😁
A great video and a great-looking shed, but darn, this sure makes me _not_ want to build a shed myself. I'm not worried about the hard work, but there's so much to know and so many opportunities to screw up!
Thank you so much! Well at least you know and can make an informed decision.
you just break down each element like a kit or cooking recipe. one thing at a time and you have a shed.
Best shed build ever!! Nice work. Thanks for a great video, very detailed and complete. I'm building a shed house just like this next week.
Thanks so much I appreciate you letting me know!! Good luck with your build!!
Great video. Just got a small piece of land that has an old shed / hunting camp and want to build a new one that i can camp in. Thanks again for the video.
You’re welcome. That’s exciting!
Everytime I see such sole man workmanship and I know the guy has a young kid I tell myself: damn this lucky guy has a good wife.
Haha thanks! I sure do have a good wife.
You had my attention from start to finish!
Wow thanks that’s a loooong video for that! 😁
tha's was clear and simple lots of details de best that y saw in years. thanks and thanks.Gerald canada quebec.
Thank you Gerald much appreciated!!
I will probably never build a shed but really enjoyed watching. Good entertainment.
Thanks Maggie I appreciate that! Never say never 😉
Wow nice thank you to learn somethings to build shed thank you for sharing your video watching from San Diego CA USA and I'm joy watching your video
Thank you for letting me know!
Hi - Honestly this is the most comprehensive video on how to build a shed that I have ever seen......great teacher! Very helpful and I just started the build :) I was thinking of making the walls alittle higher maybe 9 -10 foot but wanted to get your thoughts on any concerns or changes to the process. Thank you Rob from Wall New Jersey
Thanks Rob I appreciate you letting me know! Yeah I don’t see that it would make a difference for the rest of it if you make your walls taller.
Hello from Oklahoma. You're very knowledgeable in construction and did amazing build quality. I'm a new subscriber.
Hi Wayne thank you for letting me know I appreciate the feedback and support!! 😊
Where at?
Thanks so much for the video. I really enjoyed the entire video. I really enjoyed the lack of background music some folks add in. Thanks for leaving it out. I have yet to compare the rough cut boards with T111 or similar panels but I think they are cheaper - and I really like the look. It reminds me of the place the old blacksmith lived in around the corner from our farm. He lived in a place about this size for all the time I knew him. He had a boxwood stove, a small table, one chair, a rocker, a curio cabinet, a single-size bed and not much else. Henry Fisher. Thanks for the memories.
Thanks Neil. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for letting me know. The blacksmith sounds like a very interesting guy to know to hear some great stories. Good times!
31:12 why we stopped using plywood 25 years ago :) the smell of OSB does not last forever :) Nice shed!
Haha yeah i know what you mean. I know it’s used in everything. To me I can still smell it no matter how old it seems. To each their own 😁
Thank you for doing this video. I'm getting ready to build my first shed and this was a great help!!
Thank you I’m glad you found it helpful!! Good luck with your shed!!
Great video, sir! Thanks for the level of detail. So many people gloss over details that would be a great help to others.
Thanks William! Yes I got lots of requests on my last shed video so I decided to include all I can in this one even if it makes it very long. Lol
@@SmartEasyDIYer We appreciate it. :) I noticed that your treated 2x stock was incised all over, like railroad ties. Is that common practice in your part of the world? Our treated material is all SYP here in the Southeast, and I've never noticed it.
Thanks. Yes that’s common practice here. I’ve noticed in the East that’s it’s different.
One of the best DYI shed build videos I’ve ever seen. Great job!
Thank you so much for your feedback Mike! 😊👊
People don’t realize they could build their home by themselves with almost no cost, no mortgage, no nothing like our ancestors! Today most buy expensive houses from bank and are tied to the financial system so they need high income jobs where they are mostly slaves. I sincerely have a lot of respect for guy like you showing the way to go!!! Thanks!
Thank you I appreciate that! Yes you could do something pretty inexpensively to live in if you really had to.
There are a lot of “how to” videos out there and I wish all of them were this good. Ty for the excellent tutorial! I do have a floor question-what type of plastic and at what layer would you add a vapor barrier for an insulated floor?
Thank you I appreciate that! I would probably do at least four mil maybe six mil plastic. I think the best would be to put it on the bottom underneath but that would be really hard to do on a shed like this so I would at least put it on top of the floor joists before you put the floor down. Unless you do spray foam which can seal off for vapor barrier if it’s closed cell foam then you wouldn’t need to worry about plastic. That’s my thoughts
What a fantastic shed. You have great knowledge sir. Thank you
Thank you Steve much appreciated!
I remember when I lived back east, (Ohio), in our 2 story house, and we would have snow storms/blizzards that completely cover the 1st floor. Our older brothers would throw us off the 2nd floor back balcony. We would sink a little, and then dig our way back to the path.
The best times was, when we would build snowforts and have the GREATEST snowball fights with all our neighbor friends. Everyone had two huge forts in their front yard. Thank you guys for the memories!
That sounds like a blast when you’re a kid! Thanks for sharing.
Long video but once I started it I couldn't stop watching. Excellent job sir!
Yes it is quite long but I got so many questions on the previous one I did. Thank you!!
Great job. Your step-by-step instructions became clear after watching the video several times. Thanks for your material list, parts, and possible upgrades.
Hey Tim thanks for letting me know! Good luck with your build! 👊
I’m so glad I found your video! We’re gonna have to rebuild our well shed and the house is board and batten and looks just like your shed. Great detail just what I needed! Thanks and I will be subscribing to the channel!
Thank you Leslie I’m glad you like it!! Thanks for the support I really appreciate it and best of luck with your shed rebuild! 😊
I can’t get over how awesome this shed is . Wow!
Thank you so much!
They have plastic paint now that’s pretty durable, good enough to match the siding panels. Really good video and a really nice job on the shed.
I haven’t heard of that. Thank you!
This has got to be the most informative build video I've seen thank you!!! I know it is a ton of work
Thank you Max I’m glad you enjoyed it! 👊
Excellent! Thank you so much, just what I needed- I have a plan for a 10 x 16 shed I want to build, but no where near the detail that you provided. This is my first build, so your video is greatly appreciated!!! Very clear and thorough and easy to follow.....and I love the rugged wood finish, will be using that as well. Thanks again!
Thank you so much I really appreciate it! I wish you the best with your build!!
Great Job. You should be proud to show your work.
Thank you so much Phillip I really appreciate it! 😊
I just wanted to say...thanks again for building my house.
XOXO,

Haha i’ve heard that before.
Pro tip on moving a shed like this. Drill a 1” hole in your skids on the inside, not the end. Then if you have to wench it up on a trailer you can use 3/4” steel pipe and a chain and it will keep it from digging into your siding and right up on the trailer.
Thanks for sharing!
I can't wait to understand what stuff like this means 😂
I feel another shed coming on . 👍
haha awesome! 😁
