- This video I’m building a 12x16 shed. So I can finally get the rest of my stuff out of storage. I built this shed in two weeks. I took off work so I could get it to the point where it is dried in. This is a time lapse of the build. I spent $2,800. dollars so far on the shed.
Concrete 4yds $900.00
Dirt $200.00
Materials $1,700.00

Legend is he is still waiting for his brother in law till this day.....
Lol. He did show up. I just didn’t film him helping because it was just real brief.
He stopped over for the free pizza and beer , he ate , drank then wished Johnny Goodluck
😂
As a contractor that does a lot of one person work I’d give you a couple of pieces of advice or points that have served me well for work like this: 1. Sheet good carriers can help a lot allowing you to easily carry 3/4” plywood of 5/8” drywall by yourself and along with that sheet clips which are simply folded metal that forms an H, you drop a couple on your previous sheet and simply drop your next sheet in, and they hold it while you nail/screw; and 2. Cellulose PVC for the bottom foot of your sheeting, it doesn’t rot, it’s water proof, and along with foam under your bottom plate and pressure treated lumber for the bottom plate, will ensure the structures you build will outlast you. I also like cellulose PVC for soffits and trim as you can get it in numerous colors, you never have to paint it, it doesn’t rot or leak, and there isn’t a bug around that likes making their homes in or with it.
Thanks for all the pointers! I appreciate your comment!

As a contractor as well, I second this advise.
Thank you for this! ❤
Giving yourself 4 inches of height above grade is ideal to avoid water issues at the slab.
As a DIYer on a shed every 20 years I don’t give a shit.
Really well done! Impressive and inspiring that you did this yourself. Thank you for posting!
Thanks! Your welcome! Yeah I like doing it myself but there is times I do need another person like a helper helping me.
I fully agree....it is nice to see something built like this that most of us can use on our property. Nothing over the top, just a solid well done product.
@FelixtheMetalcat Thanks! I appreciate your comment
Awesome job. Really like how you built it just yourself. Shows a lot of dedication. 💪🏽
Thanks!
Methodical, by the numbers. No unnecessary movements. No wasted energy. I hope the bad weather down there in Alabama didn't cause problems for you. Great job.
Thanks! Yeah I know there was a couple tornadoes that touched down and did some damage in some areas but I haven’t seen the pictures of it.
Liked the tip about the pressure treated plywood strip at the base. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! I appreciate both of your comments!
Thank you for bringing sanity to the world of RUclips build videos. Elsewhere, you'll see people overbuild like crazy. For example, a small greenhouse built with concrete+rebar and 6x6 posts
Well I will have used pressure treated wood for the bottom and wood bolt them to the concrete
@giles-df9yu yep I used pressure treated wood for the bottom plates too!
Simply amazing. The day i think i know everything is the day that i will stop learning
You'r a fast worker, and 2800. bucks, unbelievable. Good video.
Not too shabby! Might do this myself come this summer!
Well done, well recorded, Thank you!!
Loved the 80s music! I'm so impressed by what you were able to accomplish, by yourself!! Dude, without that second set of hands, the job is at least 5 times more difficult. You methodically made it work! Respect!
Thanks! I’m glad you like the music. Yeah this was a fun project I really enjoyed it!
I'm thinking about doing a 16x24 shop/shed on gravel pad with treated skids. I plan to just scale up your build to those dimensions. Thank you so much for the inspiration!
You could do gavel pad with concrete cinderblocks on the four corners and half way down the 24’ wall. That’s what I’m doing so I can park in it without having skids or plywood underneath the vehicle
Beautiful shed. Good lines and proportions. Nice job on the shed and the video!
Thanks I appreciate that
Awesome! This is exactly what I’d like to do this summer. Thank you!!
Awesome! Thanks!!
Awesome! Thanks!
As a Union Carpenter Foreman, this looks amazing!!!!! Ain't gonna lie, that's a lot of hard work for 1 guy!!!!! Can't say I could do it!!!!
Thanks! I appreciate your comment! It was a lot of hard work.
Love the Ozzy chill music💪💪👍👍😁
Good video, soft music, clearly knowledgeable. Thanks for sharing, brother. Nice work. 💪🏻
Thanks! I appreciate that!
Great job. Great vid, clear & straight to the point
Thanks! I appreciate your comment!
nice work.....especially alone. I'm not being critical here but I am surprised the roof did not force the walls out of plumb with only one collar tie/ceiling joist. Glad I found your channel. I hope to see another video with the siding done. Thanks!
Thanks! Yeah I did come back later and installed the ceiling joist. The shed is finished now I have two more videos showing the rest of the build.
Very nicely done. I'm looking at doing something very similar for a wood shop at my house. Thanks for this video
Thanks!
Well done! 👍
You make it look so easy. I am afraid of heights and xant even climb a ladder to hang christmas lights. Love carpenters.
Thanks!
Looks great!
Great job I’m proud of you God bless
Thanks!
That Big man can work..... good Job
Pro tip. Hit that bottom 4 1/2 with Henry's roofing tar. Roll it on both sides and the bottom with a wiz roller or a 9 inch. Works great on T-111 as well. Great video
Great build with great music!👍
Thanks
Wow! Awesome Job on this project.
Thanks!
very straightward & cool design. Awesome job
Thanks I appreciate that!
Looks great love the Ozzy @11:30
I’m 20 never built anything in my life but I’m convinced I could do this 😂
Once you realize, it’s a box. Cabinets. Box. Dresser. Box. Pretty much everything. House. Fence. Chair.
Box.
It gets easier.
Just stick to basics and buy stuff to help. 16” framing tools etc.
@@dbnoho totally! I, somewhat in jest, tell people I build rectangles! lmao
I think anyone can! It's the tool usage and safety knowledge that is the usual concern. But just remember how crappy it would be to chop fingers off and don't do that. lol
My sentiment exactly after I had watched a documentary on Egyptian pyramids.
Great video!
i'm about to attempt the same. Never done it before. This will be a learning experience for me.
You can do it.
Good luck from Australia
Congratulations!!! Great job!
Thanks!
Nice solid build! Liked the dimensions looks like it fit your property and space perfectly! Well done!
Thanks! I appreciate it
Really nice job.
Wow - awesome build. Good job, buddy!
Thanks!
Great video! Loved the Ozzy under the graveyard tune. Made for a relaxing video 😂
Very cool comment! Thanks! Yeah the band is called Sweet Little Band. They did a good job with under the graveyard.
Wow that's awesome
We watching your back!
Lol.
Love the ozzy tune you got there putting on the roof! 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Thanks yeah I like it!
Very nice!
the music is amazing. Nice work
Thanks!!
Enjoyed this. thanks!
Your welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your comment!
Thanks for the video good job
Solid job, he put shear wall.... Smart...... He also is making the top boards 2x6 for extra strength.... SMART!
Well done, Sir.
Thanks!!
Nice build…and solid ozzy song on the video too!!
Thanks!
That looks so good
Thanks! I appreciate that!
The treated plywood on the bottom is a great idea
Thanks. Yeah I got that idea from a cool contractor probably 15 years ago. I really like it too.
Nice building….I like the video. Thanks for sharing….
Thanks! I appreciate your comment!
Man you did your thing congratulations. Awesome DiY video great work man
🎶
Thanks.
This is exactly what I'm planning to build!! Except I'm thinking of concrete piers and plywood flooring. Looks very doable by myself as my kids are grown and moved off!
Yep I did 95% of it by myself. If you decide to do it hope your build goes well.
well done thanks for posting
Thanks
Looks great man!
Thanks!
Looks really nice , wonderful wonderful :)
Thanks
Kick ass job! Shed looks great! And thanks for the cost breakdown!
Thanks!!
Great Job....👍
Thanks
You earned my respect and like and subscribe. You killed it brother! Very nice!
Thanks! I appreciate that!
Nice under the graveyard soundtrack
Looks great
Thanks!
One man army tossing those OSB sheets around
So nice
Message from Chris ( Petra's Husband) really enjoyed your video and it was interesting to see what was involved as I want to renovate our shed on the side of our farm house.
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it. What are your plans for your shed renovation?
thanks for showing this.. and posting the cost
Your welcome!
Great Job ! ....
Thanks!
I like the way you used a level to guide your nail gun when aiming for the studs. I'll definitely be copying you with that.
Thanks. Yeah it very helpful and simple.
That's a neat trick!!
Very nice job
Thanks!!
You made that look so easy
Lol. Yeah i didn’t show all the time consuming stuff.
You give me hope! Great video!
Thanks! Appreciate that!
@Weight, Build, Dig! I bought a chunk of land on the side of our highest rainforest mountain, starting a small organic banana farm on it, and I am hours away from digging footings for my 12 x 16 "construction shed." I am building it small, and low profile with a flat roof and 8ft breakaway screened in back porch. ( hurricanes) I've never built any remote like this, and while I am up for the challenge I will be honest and admit that I am nonetheless a little intimated.
@@stjbananas Very cool! Yeah you can do it! I always tell myself, If another man can do it, I can too. Just know that you will probably get frustrated, and even overwhelmed during the build. But just keep working at it, one day at a time and you will get it.
@Weight, Build, Dig! That's just the attitude I need to get her done !
Nice me and wife just watched this
awesome vidoe brother, love it from start to finish and now i have an idea of how i'm going to build mine.
Thanks! I appreciate it.
That's a nice shed
Thanks
good work!
Thanks!
Inspiring man 🔥
Thanks! Appreciate that!
Nice build my friend!!!!
Thanks!!
9:20 I love the laughter at your own awful joke. Great build. You move really quick for a thicker guy.
Thanks! I think! Lol
!exellent video!!!!
Thanks!! Appreciate your comment!
Nice job
Thanks
I was going to buy a 10x16 for 8k. Then asked a construction guy and he said 5k. You made it look so easy!
Thanks
Killer job,I wish I was I knew how to do this
Thanks!
Nice clean job! Love the choice of music as well.
Did you cut the rafters yourself? The grooves in top for your eaves?
May do a building this spring
Thanks! I like the music too. Yes I cut the rafters out. I cut the tails of the rafters down for a 2x4 facia. I should of went with 2x6 but it’s all good.
Nice build. Gives me motivation I cam doit myself
Thanks!
Howdy friend. I'm just west of you in MS, and that cost is about what we'd pay here, too. 2x4's have plummeted back to 2.85 apiece for 8-footers. That's a good-looking building. Nicely done.
Thanks appreciate that. Yeah two years ago I was building my house and osb then was $35 a sheet. Now last month I paid $11.00 a sheet.
Wow that's incredible man.. that is typically the price of a shed kit without floor, shingles, and siding
Yeah when I got it completely finished it cost me a total $7000. Dollars
Framers never go down on there knees.
Great job for a diy guy inspiring other homeowners to do their own and cut over priced contractors out
Why are you crawling around with the nail gun ?
LMAO.
Thank you .Absolutely hilarious 🤣
Thanks your welcome!
Looks real good but I think you need a little starter fluid at 11:06 and pump the gas a few more times😁
2:05 it would have been nice to see you put the anchor bolts in. Nice video man!!
Em, danged ole dang old boards man.
good
Took two weeks off of work, to work. Gotta love it.
Lol. I know right!
WOW!! I need you around my house. You make it look so easy. I am going back in forward on buy from my local imish building yard and paying around $10.000 or building myself. Looking to build A-frame 12x20
Thanks! Yeah there’s a lot of work involved. I spent $7000. By the time I finished building my shed. So I understand the debate.
@@weightbuilddig166 $7000? You specifiy $2800 in the title. What's up with that?
@@rickgrinstead9585 The prices are reflecting the amount of money it took to get the building to that point.
Did a 8x12 with a concrete pad myself (biggest you can do without a permit) prices are more in Canada but if you have the ability it's easy to do yourself.
Guys are charging $5500-6000 for the shed I built WITHOUT a concrete pad.
I got a truck that delivers concrete by the yard and it was $550. $80 for crush and wire mesh.
About 1600 in materials (2x4 wall, 2x8 roof rafters(flat angled roof) and LP smart panel siding) with a 5x7 steel roll up door.
Would be helpful if you had a list of all the tools you used? Great video.
Thanks! I appreciate your suggestion. I’ll start doing that. On this job I used a hammer, 4’ level, framing nail gun, 3” nails, 2.5” nails, wedge anchor bolts, hurricane clips, skill saw, table saw, miter saw, cordless drill, speed square and 25” tape measure.
I built the exact same shed (concrete pad, 10' studs for the walls, did everything myself with my dad and a couple buddies) and it cost a hell of a lot more than 2800. The concrete pad was about a thousand, and just the lumber (which I got before covid craziness happened) was $1800. That's not even shingles, tyvek, siding, the man door/garage door. It's been a while since I've looked at the spreadsheet but I ran power to the shed, built a couple shelves across the 12' and I'm pretty sure I was around $8000 or so all in.
Yeah. Mine was $900 for concrete $200 for dirt $1700 for building materials. I still have to buy metal roofing, soffit and facia and the vinyl siding. So when mine is done it will probably be $7000.
@Weight, Build, Dig! sounds about right. I saw some of your comments wishing you went a bit bigger. I hear that, but locally if you go bigger than 200 sq ft you need a footer which is stupid
@@MeltingRubberZ28 yeah that is. I want to build a 30x50 garage and I’ll have to do a footer and then block on top of that then the header block. But I have to do that because my ground has such a slope to it.
@Weight, Build, Dig! yeah I have a 30x40 garage right now. Setup I have now is nice but definitely wish the shed was bigger.
@@weightbuilddig166did you pour the slab yourself with bagged cement?
Well done, Do you have a set of plans/ materials list for this project that are available? I will be building my own very similar.
Sure!
2-2x4x16 pt
4-2×4×16 white board
2-2×4x12 pt
4-2×4×12 white board
58-2×4×10 white board
25-7/16 4×8 osb
18-2x6x10 syp
1-2×8x16 syp
10-2×6x12 syp
1 roll house wrap
1 roll felt buster
2-4×8 pressure treated plywood
2-2×10x10 syp
This is what I bought. I actually didn’t have any plans. I just had a vision in my mind and built it.
4:02 Using that A frame ladder like an extension ladder...you and my dad lmao 9:25 :) great video thanks
Your welcome!! Lol
