body-checking your shed for demonstration purposes is the funniest thing I've seen today

[@danielpreilly77]

Like this video for two reasons, primarily it’s lovely to see brothers working together, and also it’s always great seeing Keith build stuff, cheers

[@ojcrook1340]

Fantastic work so far, Keith. Your brother will have a great shed in no time!

[@andyc972]

Nice work Keith, it's looking great ! I particularly like the way you explained the roof pitch, very clear and easy to understand, I know you made the slip with the marking up, but who hasn't done that ever ! It's going to be a very smart shed which should last for years so well worth the extra cost for the T&G in my opinion !

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thank you

[@joethompson11]

As a Norwichian its nice to have a bit of locally sourced content to start my weekend. The shed is looking great!

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thank you!

[@MrBigMalT]

Everyone’s a winner! Your lucky brother gets you to build him a cracking shed, and we get a cracking video to watch… happy days 😊

[@idlersdream826]

Great looking build Keith, loved the “who put 50p in the idiot” 🤣🤣

[@RagnBoneBrown]

🤣

[@bobbycoleman8678]

Been watching you for years, "Back alleys to and from work" But this video beets them all. Just seeing those Deer brought joy to these old English eyes.

[@a.g.easton]

Always have to admire people who can use a circular saw so consistently accurately. I wouldn’t trust myself, over the course of so many cuts I would be bound to be slightly out!

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Cheers! I love circular saws!

[@fuzzix]

Haha, you looked thoroughly f'ed off by that window frame job. Coming along lovely!

[@RagnBoneBrown]

😁 thank you

[@rawbhl]

I had a nightmare with framing bifold doors in my garden room build, out of everything in that build, putting in the beading was the most intense and anger inducing part! 😂

[@Jan1967]

Keith, great video again. Thank you so much.

[@NeilSoulo]

The shed is looking good.

[@cobberpete1]

Coming along nicely. With all the doors and windows, it seems more of a conservatory, rather than a shed 😊

[@geoffreycoan]

A master-class in shed building, you make it look so easy 🎉 I’m rebuilding a shed at the moment, replacing the rotten sections of uprights, flooring and cladding and have raised it all up 3” on bitumen painted beams to reduce the chance of future rot. Comparing to your build I was considering using 16G brads to secure the replacement cladding but an article I read said that these don’t grip strongly enough and stainless collated/annular nails should be used instead. Another article said that you should only put 1 nail on the board width not two as boards expand more in their width than they do over their length, so two nails would leave the board more prone to splitting. The original shed has 2 nails per board but it sounds like good advice

[@freakeystyley34]

Less shed and more garden room! Looks great

[@jimrosson6702]

Looking great can’t wait to see it finished.

[@mickodonnell890]

Been waiting for this installment and as expected, I wasn't disappointed. Fab video, and build work and great editing. Lots of wee chapters too would be helpful hint hint 😀 Just kidding! I'm seriously considering a big shed myself next year but it won't be this big. Lots of groundworks to be done first and with winter fast approaching who knows what I'll get done. Of course there's also a few power tools now on my xmas list! Good luck with the rest of the build and I can't wait to see the next installment and finished shed 🙂

[@JackCliffordWilliams]

Fantastic video as usual. I've loved your shed building videos over the years. Amazing progression in your construction techniques as well as your video production skills. 😀👍

[@Pete.Ty1]

👍👍👍 As usual instructive and well explained. Thanks Keith

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thanks 👍

[@Cradley684]

Looking good both, doing a great job, hope our UK weather holds out for you Guy's, and have a nice day all !!!. 😀😀👍👍👍.

Looking good buddy although I would have doubled the timbers around the French doors

[@chrischandler7930]

Great video as always. What’s the nail gun you’re using? the one linked in the description takes to a finish nailer

It's looking brilliant Keith, it's a really nice size. Can't wait for the finale 👍🏻

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thank you

Gonna be a nice looking garden room

[@samdub]

Looks like it’ll be a cracking shed! My self build is feathered edge and only 2 years old looks like it needs redoing!

[@user-qw8in2us3w]

Hello Keith you should be very proud of what you have done - my compliments sir.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thank you

[@sometimesiaskmyself]

Easy win on the brother amusing himself.. I snorted out loud enough for our dog to wake up and go fetch her 'tug of war toy' Bad dog 😉 bad brother ✊

[@RagnBoneBrown]

🤣🤣🤣 thanks so much for the donation! Cheers 🍻

[@MonkeyBabba]

great video, i recently build a 3.7x2.5 man cave/shed/workshop and i used feathered edge on the outside layer but my garden is a sun trap its got the sun in it as long as its daylight so constantly and i do regret it not buying tongue and groove log lap as the feathered edge has bowed warped and split in places, im going to be ripping it all off in the next month and re cladding it luckily its only 2 sides i need to do as the other 2 sides being close to the boundary have recycled/up cycled metal sheets from 2 old metal sheds we had.

[@elizabethdue4801]

You forgot something. Brothers help with cool tools priceless.

[@awantamta]

Can't wait for the final part

[@markdyballuk]

cracking job Keith, cracking, thanks for sharing

[@MCsCreations]

It's looking fantastic, Keith! Really well done! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Is your brother having an AIR B&B in his garden. Great job so far… looking forward to next video

your brother ''entertaining himself'' with that scrap wood and that smile on his face made me spit my dinner laughing 😂😂😂

[@jayshukla4926]

Great content as always... On point without faffing about....one question though... Why choose upvc? This is just me but it spoils the natural look of timber...

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Will answer this in a future video

[@johnparker2636]

Great video - very informative. I do have a question though. The shed is pretty close to the boundary. I thought if that was the case it had to be made of 'fire resistant' materials?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Cheers! Never heard of that one before

[@johnparker2636]

@@RagnBoneBrown I've definitely read it but not sure if it only refers to sheds bigger than 15m2 or applies to all sheds??

[@michaelgallagher7933]

What guage nail gun would you use for 19mm x 150mm shiplap cladding?

[@Dylanrutterford]

Great video Keith the shed looks nice

[@crowlord]

Perfect place for a man cave to avoid the missus for a bit :D

[@gmo4250]

Ha ha, I know how you feel with the glazing. It seems almost impossible, then all of a sudden it just clicks into place.

[@Tomherbs]

Keith I enjoy watching your vids. But I'm wondering why you left the shed base sitting on blocks. Damp will go up through the blocks and into the timber. Even some damp proof strips in between would've helped.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Placing wood on dpc is a very bad idea as moisture will sit on it and soak in. DPC under blocks would be a better solution but I don't foresee any issues - plenty of airflow

[@mc1703]

It's the wick up through the concrete you need to worry about not the dampness in the air

[@RagnBoneBrown]

I'm not worried about dampness in the air? Air displaces moisture as ventilation allows the wood to dry out. As mentioned, dpc under blocks would be the best solution here. My brother didn't do that, but it shouldn't be an issue as the timber is able to dry out in the air

[@Schinney]

Great job 👍

[@simonlunt353]

It’s looking good Keith I would have used my Milwaukee chop saw for cutting the boards and sorry mate but you will never make a window fitter 😂next time use a rubber hammer and hit it hard 👍can’t wait to see the chapter 😊

[@malcolmpas]

I thought in the damp old UK, you’d put sparking or some other type of membrane between the studs and external lining? Wouldn’t that help with waterproofing / moisture?. 🤔

[@RagnBoneBrown]

It's not being insulated

[@shaun30-3-mg9zs]

Hi Keith, the shed is coming a long well, great video

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thanks 👍

[@rpaasse6453]

Looks great and you are really knowing what youre doing so, my question is, why not a double header? I thought that was the way to go in a build like this. I could be wrong and happy to learn.

Jesus Keith thats looking like one sweet looking shed looks more like its gonna be summer house. Must say though am gonna have to re think the timber for the wifes studio based on these costings. Can i ask what timber merchants your using?? 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

There's a video about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWexg4OApqmBqqcsi=Wr_bVtb0tjrKp1BS

[@holly.pop15]

Hi Marble! ☺️

[@charleslewis1357]

You mention the cladding being quite wet and talk about shrinkage, but you appear to have nailed close to the top and bottom edges of each piece of cladding. This will surely result in splits in the cladding as it tries to shrink with both edges fixed?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

I'll talk more about that in a future video

[@benscorgie8563]

The good old ooops wrong side of the line, let’s call it extra reinforcement 😊 I’d like to know what you think to using a corner bead instead of a batten for the corners, iv only ever used a 50mm corner moulding.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Haha... Corner bead as in a quarter round or something do you mean?

[@negotiableaffections]

How did this build feel, compared to that first workshop shed you put up at your old house? I wish I could afford to get you to replicate THIS build in my back yard, as I'd love a workshop for all my 'stccked-up-in-the-toolshed' tools. Sadly that will never be, but I can dream vicariously by watching your brothers back yard, grrrr😉

[@PabloBD]

Oh No! I have to wait for the next part now! That's a huge shed by the way! My cat almost ate Kevlar today, does marble try to eat construction materials?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Haha not yet but I wouldn't put it past her!

[@bigpete4227]

Had a bit of trouble discerning between the pair of you at a few points. You're certainly cut from the same cloth you and your brother. The build is really good and agree with you on the corner bracing. A nuisance when it comes to insulation I imagine.

[@deelirious]

Cool.

[@victor58010]

Shouldn't you overlap the edge of the floor with the cladding? Looks as if the floor edge is open to water.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

I did overlap the floor

[@marzocchi705]

nae often you see a shed with french doors!

[@geoffmerritt]

[@jasonduplock3832]

I am pretty sure that 2.5m restriction is if you are building within 1m of a boundary… basically so it is not an eyesore for your neighbour.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

2m of boundary

[@jasonduplock3832]

@@RagnBoneBrown Yes… 2m… I knew it was something like that!

[@vincepopo7497]

I don’t imagine that she roof will carry a lot of weight or snow but I noticed you didn’t give that large window a proper supported header, just a nogging really, I’d be concerned on whether the weight bearing down on the window might be too much

[@davidhammond7339]

Videos are definitely better when your brother is involved 😂

[@pezpythons1532]

what nail gun is that mate

[@magneticranners]

Is it actually treated CLS or are you just calling to that when it is actually 3x2 treated with an easi-edge?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

It's CLS

[@imaginitivity7853]

Watching your struggle with the double glazing retaining bars brought flashbacks to my own struggles. It's the weirdest stuff. It absolutely refuses to fit where it's meant to until suddenly, it just does. Hate it

No one will complain about the height though?

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Why would anyone complain about the height? It's within permitted development as explained ...

[@BE27E]

Why don’t people use furrings so much easier than building different height walls , they might be expensive but you can easily cut them decent straight timber 2,3 inch down to nothing

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Cutting two angled walls is quicker than cutting 12 or however many furrings

[@dwalsh3469]

I’ve just built a triangular shed to fit a corner plot, with the 90 degree corner of the shed being the high point. I used furring strips, but furring from the low wall up to the high point. Worked a treat, and you get a uniform wall height and flat ceiling. I cut one, and used it as a template for the rest. It took about 20 minutes with a track saw to make the rest. The shed is 4.5 x 4.5 on the square side, and about 7 metres on the hypotenuse wall. I would have struggled without furring strips.

Ain’t got to mess around with scribes and crap like that

[@dwalsh3469]

@@BE27E if you ever have the joy of a triangular build, or a rectangular build with upstands for roof lights etc, you can furring strip these quite easily it seems to me.
