1 Man Shed Build Part 4: The FINAL 24 Hours!

[@kirkdesmond]

You should be in Hollywood doing set and prop design. You're very creative and inspiring. Thank you.

[@DIYGene]

Hi Kirk, You know I always wanted to build movie props and sets. I think it would be fun. But I am having a ball with this too.

@@DIYGene thx man, very nice ✌️

[@tufalike1796]

waaw, it looks so good! It's not "just" a shed, that is a decked-out, beautiful shop. The cuppola is the cherry on top. So many good ideas, I learn something every time. Thanks Gene, have a wonderful day. Hugs from Belgium - Daniella.

Thank you again Daniella, Any ideas for the inside?

I learn so much from watching you. I so much admire your skill and your dedication to detail.

[@DIYGene]

@@007NMPenfold , Thanks so much. I am learning too and sometimes the hard way. LOL

Harbor Freight drywall lift would have been your very best friend right there. Really enjoying this series, Gene.

[@DIYGene]

@@ALWhiteAuthor, I wish I would have had on for that. lol. Thanks for watching.

Spectacular look to the outside of your workshop Gene. Great job covering up 90% of the mistakes you claim to have made on the cupola. Anyway, who's going to know but you. You also saved a ton of $$$ on labor! Everything looks great. Can't wait to see the inside when you set up shop.

[@DIYGene]

Thanks, I’m really excited for how it’s turning out. The inside is going to be fun as the weather is cooling down. Any ideas for the inside?

[@Northeastken]

@@DIYGene I'm sure you will set it up well with all your neat tools. Remember way back when they had the ShopSmith? It was like 5 tools in one, table saw drill press etc. Great idea for a small shop but terrible if you forget to do things and have to set up over and over again cause you forgot to drill one hole lol. Maybe you're not that old. lol A real neat dust collection system would be a plus in there..

[@DIYGene]

Oh yes I remember the Shopsmith. I thought it was a cool idea, but you are right about setting up for each tool. Maybe it made you be a little more organized in your process. LOL. I have already moved stuff in because I know I will rearrange several times to get how I want it. I will do an 18’ bench with the mightier saw set up. I fact I already have done that. 🤪

[@davidquerry8869]

Great job Gene. I just caught this video. I see that shop sneaking together. Your enjoying a very fun time.

[@DIYGene]

Hi David! I have absolutely had a ball! Making plenty of mistakes along the way. Here is a link to the full build if you want to see: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5OqlKeBnbplp80si=-12lZFgA6hQR43MS Any ideas for the interior?

[@timscanlan1466]

That cupola looks fantastic. I built one about 30 years ago for my garage. I used copper on the roof. If I remember correctly, it was kind of expensive back then. I wish I was smart enough to think about using spray paint, but I do like the patina on it that was achieved with age. I can't wait to see what you're going to do with the inside. Keep up with a fantastic work

[@DIYGene]

Thanks Tim, this has been a really fun project. I think this painting on the cupola will hold up well. It’s that hammered copper paint from Rustoliom. I have used it in the can, but this is my first time using the spray. Using real copper would be cool. The green oxidation would be nice. Any ideas the interior?

[@timscanlan1466]

@DIYGene Gene, what are you going to use the shed for?

[@DIYGene]

It’s already full of lawn care and a generator.

[@timscanlan1466]

@@DIYGene I think you're gonna need a bigger shed.... LOL

[@DIYGene]

@@timscanlan1466. You are probably right 🤪

[@PeteRondeau]

those faux metal straps came out great!

[@DIYGene]

Thanks Pete, I really think it adds a finishing touch.

[@oldb-1kenobi]

Hi Gene! I like your color choices and design esthetic, the shop really looks nice! I'm looking forward to how you fit it out on tne inside, too!

[@DIYGene]

Hello OLd B 1, this has been a super exciting project for me. I’m really excited for the next steps. Any ideas?

Amazing job Gene! Love you creativity and eye for detail. Who is the cute shop dog?

[@DIYGene]

Hi Deb, I am having such a good time building this. The little dog is our newest addition. She is a 5 month old boarder collie named Harper. Let me know if you have any ideas for the inside.

[@lonewolf56308]

Hi Gene!

[@DIYGene]

Hi Johnny

[@bobwallace6812]

Great video. Question, how did you get the correct scale when building the CUPLA?. I want to build one but don’t want it to look too big or too small when looking at it from the ground. Thank you again.

[@DIYGene]

Hello Bob, Great question, I actually took a picture of the shed with my phone then added a box on top, then played with the size until I was happy how it looked. Like you, I didn’t want it over powering. If you don’t have a program like photoshop, you could just print the photo and cut the box out of paper until you find the right size. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

[@TOTALLYRELAXED]

Hello Gene! I’ve been binge watching your videos [and btw have subscribed as well] I must admit it’s been with much envy! Lol! I only wished I’d had the knowledge and experience you have now when ‘I’ was growing up and all during my adult life! And, don’t say it’s never too late bc at my age of 72 it really ‘is’ too late sadly. But!..I can still watch your videos and get excited along with ‘your’ success in your building however! Have a great and bless day! ~Jim from Houston,Tx~ kzbin.info ?sub_confirmation=1

Hello Jim, Thanks so much for subscribing. I am having so much fun on this project and learning a lot. Some the hard way LOL, I took a look at your channel and I will have to check it out more. My nephew drives truck for a big sports network and pulls the broadcast trailers to everything from pro football to baseball. Thanks again for watching and God bless.
