    If building on level ground, do you recommend a crushed gravel pad?

    • @jeffreywaldman
      @jeffreywaldman  2 года назад +3

      That would work. Setting it on some paving stones would also work well and keep a little distance between the ground and the bottom of the joists.

    "Affordable" You had about £20,000 worth of tools to begin with. I have hammers, spanners, a handsaw and few other bits. I think it can still be done with a basic tool setup no?

    • @jeffreywaldman
      @jeffreywaldman  7 месяцев назад +4

      It's $4k in tools. But I hear your point. I also had the car to get there. and the land too build on. and the food to eat in the years leading up to it. and the $300k that has kept me alive since birth. Where would you like to draw the line? What privileges of yours would you like to include or not include in the list of ALL things that make projects possible and/or easier? Just curious.
      You need a hand saw, a hammer, a level, and a drill. A circular saw and speed square would help speed things up. In the plans I cover essential tools and more recommended ones. A bevel gauge would help with figuring out some of the rafter angles. And some tin snips would be very useful to make your metal roof trim pretty.

    Could you easily insulate and drywall the inside?

    • @jeffreywaldman
      @jeffreywaldman  2 года назад

      Easily. It would just add to the time and cost. Only thing you can't get around with this design is the clear roof panels which would be a single layer. They're not insulated windows or anything.

    This is a very high-quality well-prepared reference DVD which is . ruclips.net/user/postUgkx-b91_bYU48sOwHX-XC49tRRXRxcnOmZm Ryan's Shed Plans are very easy to read with excellent illustrations. The author does a great job of explaining in easy to understand terms at just the right level for the average do-it-yourselfer. I highly recommend Ryan's Shed Plans.

    How do you stop it from buckling as the trees grow?

    • @jeffreywaldman
      @jeffreywaldman  3 месяца назад +1

      Trees grow from their tops and out. So the anchors stay the same height. The anchors are made for tree houses and allow for growth and movement. About 50 years worth

    Would it be easy to add 4’ to the length to your design to increase living space (or something close based on the wall design)?

    • @jeffreywaldman
      @jeffreywaldman  2 года назад +2

      Adding length is easy. It's just more panels and more rafters. Adding width changes the dimensions and angles so that's trickier.
