You forgot to add your starter strip to your edges. Your seam tape isn't enough. The reason you put starter on your edge is so you have a tar line that seals the edge of your shingles. If you don't use it, your shingles go up against the wind where it's gonna get hit the hardest without being stuck down properly. Not only that, but you skimped on dripedge. You should have had it on that whole roof. Not telling you this to belittle you, I own a roofing company and do roofing everyday. You said it's your first time, you did great. I'd work by your side any day. Just a little advice from a roofer to an aspiring roofer! Hope this helps!

And to piggy back off of this... This just proves that you can build a better quality of shed for less than half the cost of you just do it yourself. Note - You have to already have the tools to do the work, and save the same amount of money. But, I bet a $1k-$1500 in tools could do the job and still save money.

Drinking iced coffee in my air conditioned living room, nostalgically remembering the countless errors and false starts when building my house- and watching you do it all correctly. Your shed turned out so well! Tired of high rent, 35 years ago I decided to build a house on a 4 acre unimproved lot 25 miles out of town. My experience was markedly different than yours for several reasons. I was whatever a level below ‘amateur’ is called - I knew less than nothing about building. There were no cell phones yet, no Internet, no KZbin tutorials. Cordless tools were still off on the horizon. Oh, and I had no money. After 12 years, I declared it was done enough. I learned I could do things on my own and mastered many useful basic skills. The other big thing I learned is that most any mistake can be corrected -- or can be covered with paint and caulk!

Another benefit to non permanent structure is in most places, Residential Personal Property is not taxed. A shed that is bought as a completed structure, or assembled and isn’t attached to a foundation, should technically be considered “Personal Property” due to the fact that it’s saleable separate from the real estate. (ie: you can pick it up and move it and sell it to your neighbor). However if you build a storage building on footings and it’s fixed to the ground, regardless of the size...it is real estate and may be taxed. That said, most Assessors also have a square foot cut-off below which they don’t bother. It's better NOT to be surprised when the next property tax bill comes in the mail.

About 8 years ago I purchased an 8x10 shed kit from Lowe's with installation for $2,000. Igor showed up early in the morning with a trailer and a compressor and his tools. He grabbed several cinder blocks I had because there was a pretty bad slope and created the base. I ordered the pressure treated flooring and he built the floor and put the entire shed together with the roofing and all of it and all I had to do was caulk it and paint it. Of course he had built a lot of these and really new his business. It was plum and square and a really nice job. How long do you think it took him to build it? I was there the whole time and did very little to help since he had a method working on his own. From arriving to completion it took him a little over 4 hours. Oh yes, I just remembered that I had a coupon and paid a little over $1,800.

As to the tyvek house wrap, I was always told to tuck in excess, not to cut it off. Relying on sealant tape is one thing, but where siding meets trim, tyvek should wrap around to the interior. If you cut it at the exact interface between exterior and interior, that is an access point for moisture. It costs you nothing to leave it on and tuck it around the inside of openings.

Great video! You could have stacked all the planks for the rafters and used a chalk line for each of the two birdsmouths to ensure they're lined up. That would also give you an opportunity to ensure all the planks are the same length. When you measured first, using one of the rafters as a guide (42:42) It would be a good idea to do this at one end of the shed, pencil it for high and low side, then do the same at the other end for comparison to ensure there's no funny business. When cutting the birdsmouth at a very shallow angle, you risk snapping the jigsaw blade. Starting at the shallow end with a chisel for the first 1 or 2 millimeters would make it much safer and more accurate. The problem with front and back rafter support planks not being level (sorry I don't know their real name) could be fixed with a planer, or if the gap was worse a thin piece of wood (a small amount of glue and a few nails too).

A very informative and entertaining video. Thank you. That's a lot of work, money, time and effort for a relatively small shed. If you are going to put that much work into a project might as well make it a little larger and more useful in a yard that size. The amount of labor involved wouldn't be that much higher by extending it a couple/few feet in width and depth. Also that large drop off right outside the doors guarantees accidents in the future and falls when stepping out. Not to mention it's impossible to roll anything like a lawn mower or anything else into the garage.

I believe you are thinking about floating vinyl siding. "Shakes" and "wood" style siding buts up against the corners. Your typical "toss it over the ugly underneath" vinyl siding jobs float like that and go under the corners for expanding and contraction. You don't nail them tight to the wall sheathing.

I made a similar build for a shed in my backyard a couple of years ago. I did not finish quite as well as you did. The roof is not as nice, I didn't weather-proof it as thoroughly as you did, and I got cheaper on door hardware, but I think it still looks pretty nice. It has the three windows over the front double-door and one little window on the side. I think your shed is a couple feet bigger. The most expensive part was the 4x8 engineered siding I used. I spent about $2300.

There is a company called Morgan Buildings here in SE Looziana. I think my shed is 8' x 16'. I purchased it just after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. It cost me about $7,000 dilivered and leveled in the back yard. About 10 to 12 years in, the damn termites ate the NON-treated plywood floor out of it. When I go back with new floors I'm going with pressure treated material. That is going to cost me $40 to $50 per sheet. So it looks like up to $300.00 for the repairs I plan with a few new treated 2X4's for joists (or I may go metal joists). Thank goodness the big 6"x6" ground stringers were pressure treated are sitting on concrete stepping stones and appear to be in good shape.

I'm with you on that shielded OSB. Doesn't look like it saves any time and I doubt it does any better for vapor barrier and water protection. Layer of tar paper right over the top of the drip edge goes really fast, and the shingles are what do all the water shedding anyway. The vapor barrier is just that. If that's shedding water you've got problems.

I'm watching you build the front wall where the door goes and the only reason you'd need to build a header all the way across the top like that is if you want to convert to a full width and height door at some point. You can do just the header above the door and have each window use its own header, with a standard top plate like the back wall uses. A good way to visualize this is to think of each header as a bridge over the hole your window or door makes. If there's no hole in the wall, no bridge needs to be built over it. Just standard studs with top and bottom plates needed in between.

Tip for those getting a load of gravel delivered - OSB is expensive, don't use that for dumping the stone on. Use a tarp for dump truck loads of materials delivered. The tarp also has the benefit of making it easier to get up all of it. Shovel the pile to just a skim on the tarp, then lift the tarp to consolidate the material into a pile.

Just curious, if instead of using an air nailer, if you actually drilled holes then put in deck screws, would that make the building stronger enough to make any difference, or just a waste of time? I also have this curiosit about my wood picket fence.

Wouldn't nailing down the metal flashing to alternating pieces of the roof kick up some strange tension & compression when those flex joints need to flex on the roof?

Not a fresh release, I get that and I also know you have a lot of subs...but I really hope you catch this. I want to say thank you for a shout out to the Master (Norm Abrams) who got us all into building in some way shape or form. That rag tag bunch of New England craftsman from Boston PBS that showed how it's done in real time on the jobsite. Norm is a national treasure and IMHO a woodworking hero here in New England. It's what got my attention as an 8 - 9 year old boy with a single mother who had no male influence to "get dirty". (My father is a POS deadbeat who straight left his fiance of 5 years to fend for herself in 1969.) Those guys inspired me to go to the local lumber mill, ask for scraps, the guys behind the counter taught me about all the different type of nails, wood etc and off I went...10 years later framing houses at the age of 17 years old and then getting into general construction for years. It all culminated with me working as a finish carpenter at the feet of a master craftsman like Norm. We did built in cabinets, libraries and all kinds of incredible finish work in the multi million dollar homes of the richies around here. That group of guys...Tommy, Bob, Norm etc had a huge influence on the building industry. Nothing but respect and admiration.

So, I want to build a shed like this. I have a question that either you (or your amazing fan base) can answer for me. At 48:20, why are you screwing all the roof joist cross-braces (not sure if that's the right verbiage) instead of using the nail gun? I understand that you had to "toenail" in the screws for the two angled sides, but wouldn't the structural nails be just as strong as the screws for those small support pieces between the roof joists? Thanks again for your channel. I'm 53 and I would say that I'm pretty handy. I have my own woodworking (wooden waving American Flags) small business, but I'm never too old to learn from others. Shalom

8:51 pause it, i can literally see that the front left corner facing the fence, not in picture, is the highest point, then the left side of the shed slopes downward towards the fence, and then from the back left corner it slopes downward again to the right back corner. this is what i mean when you have to go around the building ina circle to level it. of course this could also be an optical illusion because im not standing there looking at in person, but judging this angle thats how the building looks. about 12" out on that back right corner

With the house wrap and the build so tight, I was expecting a full soffit vent across the front, not those tiny little square vents. Maybe it’s because I live near the ocean, my shed has significantly more ventilation.

If I'm not mistaken, you accounted for the footing/pad and timber in your project. Again I may be incorrect, but I do not believe the stock units at the box stores include any foundation materials. correct me if I'm wrong as a fellow Tennesseean, "mistakes can be made"
