I live in Canada and I also built my shed from scratch 2 years ago when the pandemic had started, and i've had no mold issues because i made a lot of screened vents. door is still fine, osb floor is still fine. I store some woodworking/carpentry lumber and some car tools in it. i'm very happy with it, best CAD$900 i've spent.
For exterior paneling I usually only use 1 fixing, but i don't use it in the middle of the board. I put it more to the lower end of the board, that way it holds the top of the previous board and the board that its fixing, bar the top board which gets 2 fixings. Nice shed BTW
Great update. As for the nails……I build stables for a living we always use two nails to stop the bowing in the shiplap. Never had problems with them & yes it’s a hot topic of debate so let the battle commence lol
Brilliant update and such a great series of videos. I hadn't given ventilation much thought, but having seen what you've learnt, I will do. Thank you. You might just have saved me a few hundred quid!

I love these update videos! They let me learn from your mistakes (which no doubt I would have made myself!). Thanks for the video which makes your videos truly educational and not just content for the algorithm!
The issue with the door was the cross-grain batten and the screws. They don't allow the wood to move naturally. Something has to give. Use nails, they are mild steel and will bend. If you must use screws, slot their holes in the batten and don't crank them too tight.
Enjoyed watching this over a cuppa tea Keith. If the door drops in future. Take the diagonal braces off, spring/wedge the door up like you did with your foot slightly higher than needed. Screw some vertical timber inbetween the rails on the hinge side. To refit the diagonal braces, trim both ends off equally to suit the shorter length now needed. Now remove the wedge. Now the door is set stressed oppositely to gravity so if it does drop it will be minute. Your shed is built far superior than the majority ones on sale today. Or for a quick fix, just wedge the door up, it'll move because it's already dropped. Then screw a full height/length diagonal brace on the back to fix the door in it's new position. Tony
How time flies! Great to see how robust your project execution was. Honestly, the issues were minor in respect to the overall condition. Key lesson is probably more ventilation. The look of the wood is actually nice. Aging well after 2 yrs of weather. Give yourself a little more credit chap! 😎
Cant' believe its been 2 years! I like the wooden look of the shed too, painted woukd be uglier, however some transparent coating or varnish is not needed?
Damn, you got me again at 2:24 , i was again tilting my head to see the bow in the door, like i did in the 1 year update video :-) Ventilation is indeed very important, and ventilation is something weird. Per example, in the winter when it's freezing, the air humidity can be lower then in the summer when the sun is shining. So most people think that ventilation is only needed when it's cold or rainy, but it's necessary for the entire year.
RE Ventilation , last shed i built i just left under the eves open and never had any issue with mould apart from the one pack of tonge and groove that was wet and mouldy when i got it . Not ideal for security or rodents etc but works wonders , its always cool and dry in the shead. Making the doors out of plywood however was not a good idea.
Great tip on the door! Will be using that when I'm building a door to my shed-in-progress this week. These kinds of video's are great, really helps others not encounter the same issues. Great tip on the OSB as well, used OSB on the floor of my shed too (also raised and very ventilated underneath).
Having just built another shed, with my aim being to not make the same mistakes as last time. One thing I’ll say is, before cutting anything down, think about the measurements very carefully - for example, think of the adjustments you’ll have to take into account when materials butt up to each other. Check square with a speed square and diagonal measurements constantly and if you see any slight mistakes or inaccuracies make sure you correct them immediately before they become a problem later on. And lastly, if your looking to save money, don’t build your own shed from scratch, just buy one. They are so much cheaper. But if you want quality, longevity and bespokeness, it will be much easier and cheaper to build it yourself. The only prebuilt shed I’ve ever been satisfied with is the ones made by beast sheds. And they cost and arm and leg - although the quality is top notch and the installation team was efficient and very accurate. The materials were all solid, 3x2 framing, 18mm tongue and groove treated timber floorboards and 14mm shiplap cladding.
That nonosence brand is really good stuff form B&Q and Screwfix, as for the shed those Keter sheds are ideal I purchase two a year or so ago and I have been really pleased with them NO maintenance either, but a Keter shed your size are probably a bit pricey, just depends what you are happy with, have a nice day Mate !!! .
I always use the two fixing method for shiplap. The trick is to use nails rather than screws, because screws are hardened and cannot flex like nails do.
Great video. Congratulations on 15 million views. I remember watching the build 2 years ago. I just wanted to ask about the microphone attached to your shirt. It appears to be magnetic. Can you tell me what it is? Thank you.
Thank you! What you're seeing on my shirt is called a mag clip by Rode, it allows me to put the Rode Wireless Go on the inside of my shirt, which blocks wind noise and also means I don't have to advertise for Rode each time I use it 👍
Thanks, this was really helpful. We all love watching builds but follow-ups are just as valuable and informative. Cheers. ps Is it time yet for a kitten?..
I avoid pressure treated timber at all costs. It's terrible stuff. It's always way too green to use for anything but fence posts and the treatment doesn't stop the wood rotting. Put a piece of tantalised tile lath and the ground for a year and see what happens. Treating with cuprinol 5 star pretty much guarantees it will out last you and you don't need to deal with all the problems associated with working with green timber.
I'm running a test at the moment, I have untreated, pressure treated and self treated with preserver samples in contact with the ground, in water, and laying flat on soil. Can't wait to find out the results but I had a peep last week and nothing has degraded yet and it's been well over a year, I think!

How big was the shed for 900CAD?

You are really humble and often hard on yourself. This was a fab project that was really interesting to watch and emulate.
Thank you

Wood is so amazing when you understand it .

Up's and downs of building a shed mate but the end result is at least it's still standing which has got to be a good highlight after all 😉👍🏻👍🏻

Two Years???? Wow, time flies. Still looks good. I would be happy with the how it's going

Iv currently bought all the timber to make the same shed. Going to put a gym in it so il lay a reinforced concrete base. Will send pic when complete

Can't believe it was 2 years ago dude! Looks like jobs a good'n though.👍
Cheers mate! Serving me well so far
Pretty nice looking shed indeed, Keith! 😃
I haven't seen the build yet, but I'm going to as soon as I can. 😊
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you, good luck with your build

My shed base is Decking then OSB and then finnished off with a heavy duty lyno on top on the inside of shed never had a problem.

I’d like to see a follow up video in the patio roof
There's not much to update with, other than it is regularly covered in pigeon poo!
Door dropped diagonal braces need to be at 45 degrees as works on compression. Other angle don't work as well.
Love your video! Thank you.
Thanks
Has it been 2 years already? Sheesh!
Hi keith,
Great update. Thank you!!!. I have exactly the same issue with mould. How wide holes did you drill?, and how many?. Thnx

What do you think of a plastic shed? A duramax or suncast instead
whaaat? two years already,! heck time flies
Mouuldresistant paint is good for plywood roof
Thank you
Where do you direct the rain water running into the gutter?
Thanks, this was really helpful. We all love watching builds but follow-ups are just as valuable and informative. Cheers. ps Is it time yet for a kitten?..

If someone else was paying, I'd use cabershield for flooring, but otherwise i would do osb 👍

please make goat bin with feeder attached type
Is the welded wire at the bottom of the walls to keep rats from moving in?
Yes
Must be getting close to that 3 year update lol
👍👍👍
I can't believe it's been 2 years already. What in the what.
wow, how dry your lawn is!
We've not had any rain for weeks
Hi Keith!. I have the solution to all your shed problems: bricks.
Yeah bit overkill for what he needs it for - expensive too
longer hinges or more of the same....
dang dude take a second to breathe in pause.i couldent get thru the entire video
There is no paint in uk?
Recon you should go three fixings, please everyone. No wait trolls 🧌 would go mad!
😂👍 why stop at three!
