How to build a She-Shed - In 8 Minutes!

This was an 8 month project that I've condensed into an 8 minute video. I go through the shed build process from A to Z. If you'd like detailed how-to videos, you can find them in my "How to Build a Shed" Playlist linked below. I cover everything from building the foundation, to Electrical, to Roofing and more. This is mainly used as a studio space for my wife to do her work. I'm still working on the price breakdown but it was way cheaper than a tough-shed or similar pre-built shed of this strength and quality. I did much of this project as a one-man operation, but I also had lots of help from my amazing wife and even some help from my parents when and extra set of hands was needed! Thank you! I love the result and hope it inspires your build!

Great build! I’ll be checking out the rest of the playlist. I’m preparing to build a shed for/with my neighbor.

[@atsukohughes9182]

It's amazing work that you have done. So proud of you and love it.

[@trinityschoolinjapan3680]

Awesome videos and work! Looking forward to hearing the total cost. Currently preparing some land in the mountains to build a workshop/storage. Hoping to use your videos for ideas and guidance. I will need to modify several things due to location (humid mountain area in Japan) and intended use.

Your build really looks great. Well done!
A few times you referenced continuity with your house re siding and the roof. I, for one, would really like some shots of your home and the shed...drone maybe? Perhaps this was addressed, but I'm curious as to WHY you built the shed...what's the endgame? Congrats on your efforts.

Hi Karl, great work! I plan on building this style shed in my backyard as well. Did you happen to use a specific plan? If so could you point me in the direction/sharing? I’m having a hard time finding one with a loft this height. Thanks for allowing us to be part of your journey
