I wish I had an outdoor workshop like this to make an outdoor workshop with.
You read my mind lol
😂
This is what I've been looking for to get the riding mower, wheelbarrow, spray tanks, weedeater and chainsaws out of my shop. Just perfect. This 70+ old man really enjoys your videoes. Keep it up young lady.
I am so glad you are still human.......nailing to bench, painful shoulder block to wall that didn't move. Thats why I love your videos.
This is on my to do list so I can put my yard equipment in it and free up more of my garage for the actual fun stuff!
Awesome idea! You could a small cheap solar panel with a battery to keep your power tools charged and have an interior light for ease of access in the evening
I wish I had all these tools to be able to build stuff too!!! :( looks soo much fun!!!
Anyone in NJ just want to hang out and build stuff?!? Haha.
I did just that, and converted April's design to a bit larger, and added some actuators to lift the roof due to the Solar panel weight!
I see potential as a little welding shop, or to house a generator.
The welding shop may be a bit iffy for fire reasons especially if it is close to your house. You're right about the generator shed and it would also be good for storing firewood.
@@mfritch Panel the inside with cementboard, whether it's used for welding or a genny.
I, too, see value in this design for a potting shed. Choose contents wisely, as access can be easily gained.
Oh storage for solar battery's !thanks for the suggestions
April, loved the way you attached that last piece of roof flashing. Alan
IF the roof was without the wood you could cover it with corrugated skylight material that lets light through which would make it a good cold frame for putting all kinds of plants in for early planting in the garden before spring starts. It would be best to have it south facing of course.
It'd be a lot lighter also.
Moisture from plants and condensation on cold metal would rust tools.
I love that design! Perfect for my generator and alot of garden stuff! Thanks April!
I’m turning this into a riding tack holder. What an amazing idea! Thanks, April!
Holy cow that is exactly what I was brainstorming for my outdoor sink. I have a cool green cast iron sink i want to set up next to my greenhouse. So excited to make this.
Hi April,
That is a useful addition. Shame the price of lumber is astronomical now. You all stay safe.
Pro tip: replace the lumber with 24K Gold extrusions, it is cheaper than lumber and won't rot/rust :-)
I procrastinated getting my garage and shed shelves finished up back in 2019. Finally gave up hope on lumber prices dropping back down and just bought some angle steel to make them from. Better quality shelf for less money than 2x4 versions
Hah! Whilst your prices are still well below what we pay here in Australia, it's good that you are getting a bit of an idea of what it is like for the rest of the world.
You will also find that these prices give the suppliers/manufacturers a chance to test the market, and if they don't find a substantial downturn in demand those new prices aren't going to go down again once things return to normal. They love this sort of thing. My advice is to NOT feed the sharks.
@@vtbn53 out of curiosity what is the price there now versus a normal price on a 2x4x8' (or whatever your equivalent is)?
Here in mid USA, our normal price was roughly $2.75 USD versus now it's almost $6.....I sawi it as high as $7.39..
Edit, and I've never seen this much lumber piled up at stores. The cribs are full, the aisle has pallets stacked. People aren't buying like they used to. Ive held off on several projects now and switched to metal where I can for others
@@srmofoable $8.80 a stick, but it's scarce as hens teeth at the moment, I actually can't get any.
I can see this adapted for gardeners too!🌸
Thanks April 👍
Looks great April, another fine addition to the outdoors work area. Thanks for sharing with us, Fred. 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻
Great job April! Another great project for your homestead! Please keep in mind an UPDATE VIDEO at some point on the cool stuff, the garden, the water recovery system, general shop. INQUIRING MINDS want to know! Lol! Your one of my favorites! Thanks for sharing! Best wishes to you and the family!
What an awesome project! That could definitely clear up some space in my garage.
Another great idea, of which I’m going to build but to fit my garden like I did with the work bench you did👍🏾
Hey April,
I’m glad I’m not the only one that accidentally nails projects to the workbench. 😁
Michael
Omg April this is awesome! Just what I’ve been looking for this last month. I need a storage/work area on the side of my house, I just finished the concrete slab (first time doong that also 😬 watched your old video on that like a hundred times 😂, I was super scared) and it came out great, but I was still looking for the best storage option to put on top of the slab. This is a great option so thank you!!! you’ve been an inspiration for this 51 year old grandma 💪🏼😎
This is brilliant. As someone who lacks a garage or shop, this would be a fantastic solution to explore. Thank you (and Jacob) for this!
April you have I believe the best videos for the projects, you undertake. My daughters are willing to take on projects around their houses too. Of course they grew up helping me with projects around the house too. So they are confident enough to do a lot of projects around their houses now.
What an awesome idea!! Adding a window this could also be used as a chicken coop for easy cleaning !! 🥰 Thanks so much for your videos!!
Great idea April! I built an outdoor work bench 2 years ago, but never thought of enclosing it from the weather, Maybe I can use some of your ingenuity to expand mine. Up here in MN. it works great for spring and fall projects.
I could see an adaptation of an outside kitchen for canning/ grilling. Good idea 💡👏
That is a really good idea!
GREAT idea!!!
I really appreciate that you let me learn not only from your expertise, but also your mistakes.
Very nice. I could see this would be awesome on a remote part of a property. The inclusion of some solar panels and an inverter would also allow for remote power. Great job.
April very nice design there. Looks very useful and hopefully works well for you. I would definitely like to try something like this. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work April. Keep Making. God Bless.
This is a great idea! I love it. One thing to note you should flip the struts for the top so that the seals of the struts are facing down that way when they are open any dirt and debris won't collect on the top of them and ruin the seals and cause them to wear out faster. Look at vehicle lift gates that use these. (i didn't know this until gm had a recall a few years back and told us to flip them 180 degrees because of this)
I love the Ray Ban safety glasses April ! 🤣
It's a good idea, you could put it on large castors so it could be wheeled around.
What a coincidence! Years ago I built a virtually identical mini shed, just slightly smaller than yours. It’s at the shoreline of my cottage and is used for marine repairs and storage. Good job!
That is an awesome, versatile space! Great job April! I love your videos! 👍👍
I have watched all of your videos and really appreciate the design elements of your projects and the easy to follow, laid back, down to earth explanations of the build process.
A tip for cutting the sheet metal panels as mentioned in another comment about installing blade backwards in a circular saw also works for thin plastic or fiber panels. An installer of aluminum siding advised me to use a cheap high tooth count (plywood blade) plain non carbide blade and run the saw against a guide for long straight cuts.
Good idea for garden tools
Very nice! I have a ToughBuilt tool belt and roller stand and very happy with them. Will look at the saw horse stands.
Love this idea. I think it would be great for gardeners. Am going to get those saw horses btw! Thanks!
Great to see you on assembly required.
I have watched every single one of your videos! You are so awesome and congratulations on the tv show which is really awesome!!! I have learned so much from you and a lot of the projects you make are simple enough that with instruction anyone can complete them. Thanks again and you rock!
Another great build! Much success to you April!
April, you should do a video on how to install porch columns.
I'd be worried about the humidity rusting the tools, but i could see this being useful for other items.
Your comment made me think that this could easily be adapted for use as a small chicken house.
Add a solar panel and battery with an exhaust fan to keep the shed aired out. You may even find a solar powered fan like the ones used for car ventilation that clip on the window.
Love this design! So simple and effective.
Perfect timing! My wife just asked for a potting shed to replace the cheap plastic Box Store shed we have been using. Time to get busy making!
great possibilities since I don't have a proper work shop, only a temporary outside bench on 2 sawhorses..thanks
This is brilliant. An estimate of costs would be good for expectations
I’ve looked at different designs and this is the best yet. No power tools yet, just plenty of hand tools so gotta get busy. Thanks April👍
Glad you found it useful. I bought my first tools from yard sales and pawn shops, buying only the tool I needed, then saved for the next. Enjoy the build and thanks for watching.
Love this. It may be more than I can handle, for a while at least. Just had a total knee replacement!! I can walk again and when I finish rehab, maybe I just might tackle this job..... BTW I love your channel, keep us posted on your venture with Tim the Toolman!
Keep up the PT!
That's freaky... been designing something similar this week 🙈
Great job April. I love this idea.
Nice shed/shop. Always a good idea to seal any cuts/penetrations to LP SmartSide. It'll last longer when the cuts are painted-over.
Hum, looks interesting. Looks like a winter cabin storage container possibility.
absolutely loved your build and live demo of Newton's third law! A+ for April !!
I like it! I like the ToughBuilt line of products too.❤
Goodness.... such a fun video! I very pleased to discover that woodworking tools can be stored outside this way.
This is soooooo awesome thank you. I always learn something from you for me and my wife to build
I built firewood storage units on 4 x 5 pallets years ago. They are about 4ft high and open on all sides for air flow. Made the corners out of 2 x 4 screwed together on edge. I used a 2x4 width to give me the roof pitch front to back. I too made the roof out of sheet metal but put the pitch to the back. I no longer burn firewood for heat so I plan to retro the units into storage units for yard decorations that change with the season instead of having them take up shed space. Living in New England lawn decorations change with the seasonal holidays. I plan to use some of the textured ply or chip for the sides that have a grain look to show to the weather. They make good screening along property lines between houses. Thanks for the video . Hope the new show is going good for you too. Good luck with the new shop.
April, I had been debating some outdoor storage options over the past couple of weeks and this fits the bill. Love the incorporated workbench. Very clever touch. Love your channel!
Absolutely! Not only is the workbench useful, it is providing structural integrity too. Ingenious design! 🙂
@@edwardholmes91 Great point. Especially when the roof is hinged and not fastened at the front to give that added strength. It feels like a triumph when you can turn structure into function.
Awesome!!! We will be building this this summer.
I just love your material and presentation style, and never fail to pick up at least something of interest or, as in this case, a whole project. Apropos your previous videos, I'm about to make a work bench (after I finish the deck), an outdoor small shed/work area like this (I've been wondering how effective pneumatic struts would be!!), and you've taught me enough Sketchup to get me into it. All the best to you from Canberra.
Love this multi-functional box!
This solves a huge problem. THANK YOU!
That shed is awesome. My new summer project. Thanks.
April, du bist ja wirklich fleißig. Man merkt, du hast viel Freude an Deinem Beruf.
I love April's videos she's got mad skills in wood working
Nice little job good for your garden tools l pleased to see your workshop stay safe 👍🇬🇧
interesting idea. My first work area as a young teen was a picnic table in the yard. This would have been awesome as an addition to our back shed.
Oooo...Maybe some solar panels on top and a battery bank for charging tools...the ideas just flooded in!
Very nice. I will have to build something similar for my yard. Thanks for the idea.
looking good April nice one
Love the tough built bags and gear... Been building out my blet for tough built
Super boulot, j'adore...
C'est vraiment un régal de voir tes idées se réaliser.
This is exactly what I'm looking for right now. I am building a secured trash enclosure, and this design (minus the shelves), would be pretty perfect.
Nice build! This concept is very interesting, and I may do something similar. Thanks for posting.
Thumbs up!
Great project! Can’t wait to see you on tv again. 🤞
Beautiful work, April! Pretty interesting concept! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Good job April !!
April you really have talent you can do a balance beam while screwing down panels on a roof. You just made Tim the tool man proud!
Thanks for the idea. Love it!
Wow! This is just what I need. I have been struggling to come up with an idea to keep my tools safe outside as well as finding space to make a mini workbench, in my small yard. This is all in one. Awesome!
now that is just what I need to gain space in my workshop great job....
Love it
I will see to if this works for my shop
Great storage/workbench idea! Genius🥸
Just what I needed to build!!! Thank you!!!
Excellent idea for garden tools!! 👍
Beautiful job!
As always, nicely done. One recommendation that I have is to consider still using the wooden props on the side. If the lid is left up for an extended period of time without the props, the struts can lose their load carrying capacity. I was reminded of this last night when I was working on my VW Golf. It has a single hood strut and I have two LED light bars that hang from the underside of the hood. They do not weigh very much, but it was enough that when I wasn't watching, the hood decided to slowly close on me. I discovered that an old, short, extendable paint roller handle makes a great adjustable hood prop. One lesson learned and a good solution discovered.
This is what I needed. The only obvious change that I'd make is to have a saltbox roof instead of a shed roof due to the omni-directional high winds we get in this area. That would complicate the build, but when you live where you can get 80 mph gusts from any direction, single plane shed roofs tend to get ripped off after only two or three years. Thanks, April, for giving me an idea for my next project.
One thing I noticed you did a great 👍🏽 job good explanation and a person can adjust twords their personal preference.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for sharing that! well done!
This is also a great alternative to a traditional taller storage shed in the backyard. Specially if you have an HOA situation where you can’t have anything above 66 or 7 feet that shows from the street like a lot of places in town so you could build it shorter yet with the sloped roof and the ability to open it horizontally and vertically you could actually put stuff in there and have easy access either way another great project by April she rocks!
Excelent ideia!!! Congrats from Brazil! 👏👏
So smart lady, can't wait till I start building 🙂
Awesome build. I LIKE it! The only thing I'd do different is a floor extender that hinges up from the bottom that the doors would close against. An extra couple of feet of floor can make a world of difference when you're actually using it as a workshop area.
Looks super convenient! Great idea!👍🏾
WHAT?!?! This is crazy. This answers so many of my woodworking obstacles. Just... THANK YOU! Its really thinking outside the box! 😉😁
Glad it was helpful!
Really good idea! North America has ample of space, but often it is not used efficiently. When I imagine the small houses with lots of acres around...🤦♀️🤦♂️
Great idea. I'll have to resize it for a garden shed plus lawn tractor/mower storage, but this gets me started. Thanks.
Also, loving the TV show. Just wish you got a little more screen time.
Another masterpiece, brilliant April!!!!
Great project April.
What a wonderful little shed! Great video as always!
