"Oh... we'll try THAT again!" 🤣 One of the best things is Jeff is a real dude out here working. Not just putting on a show for the camera.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Cheers. I love the actual work!

[@oldskoolwayy]

That is why I love his channel, every other youtube builder is just in a shop shooting 5 minute short edited videos talking

[@hellspyro666420]

I appreciate his showing his simple mistakes and just some minor mind lapses. Like how he put the first wall support board on incorrectly twice. We all do stuff like that even if you know what you’re doing.

[@diyenthu2844]

100%!! Learned so much over the last few years! Gave me the confidence to attempt a full floor EVP replacement... Jeff is as legit as they come, and a great teacher on top!

[@creeksidechris3384]

I believe the mishap made me learn more, never underestimate the power of doing something wrong/backwards..etc... it can teach you more sometimes!❤😂

[@d3w4yn3]

I am so glad you left in the footage of you with that wall leg comedy! Things like that happen to me all the time, thanks for being a real person!!!

[@2075jman]

I love the fact the he doesn't just show you the "how" to do it, but gives you the "why". which makes a GREAT teacher/trainer. Is there anything better than having the opportunity to work with your own son, I would love it.

[@dustinkeezer8065]

i love how he goes back and explains where he miscalculated, some people would just say the had to change it and cut the video. He actually teaches us the know hows...

[@user-zh9ow3el4e]

Thank you !! My husband was always the lead on our builds and me the labor/cut man. I'm attempting to build a mower shed without him 😢 Your video is exactly what I needed to be able to take the lead and pass on some of the skills my husband taught me before he passed. Your build video was the perfect refresher and reminder of just how much I have learned over the past 40 yrs. Skills I promise to pass on to my children. Please keep posting

[@luanahaigood278]

I love to see a father and son work together. He’s learning from Dad. Memories he’ll have forever

[@creeksidechris3384]

I think that Matt is a great worker. Humble, and patient...

[@scottmcneill761]

I really like how you show your mistakes because when I'm doing anything there seems to be a lot of them happy mistakes of course

[@summitexplorer1235]

Cherish these times with your dad Matt. I'm 58 now and wish my dad was still around to work with and continue learning from him. Nice video guys, thank you.

[@minniewilliams1852]

Can I just say I love Jeff? 😂he’s so great at explaining everything and open about screw ups. You make me feel comfortable about DIY. Thank you ❤

[@tommy99913]

I love the fact you make it so that even us that have really no training feel that we could take on some of these projects, your channel is fantastic.

[@youtubasoarus]

Another awesome video. You don't know how nice it is to see you work with your son, as I never had a good relationship with my own dad so it's nice to see someone doing it right!

[@FamilyAdventure11360]

Can’t wait to see the next video. Finished my basement project just by watching Jeff’s videos. He is the real guy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 “Perfect Every time”

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

That is awesome! Well done. Cheers!

[@billiejean1982]

JUST IN TIME!!! My son has been telling me about building one! Thank you!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Glad I could help! Cheers!

[@dustinclark8946]

One tip i also picked up from Sethcraft was to use construction adhesive under the walls for extra holding and to keep bugs out

[@ep1cgam1ng31]

Thanks for not editing your mistakes out of the video.

[@OneJennifer247]

Youve taught your son well. He knows your next move. This is a great video. Thank you

[@williamkent8792]

I love watching you and hearing you laugh. I laugh at myself at times and hearing you do the same is awesome. Keep up the great work sir.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

[@baldemarsanchez2851]

Bro 😂 every son is nervous as heck workin around pops glad I’m not alone 😅

[@georgegentles1627]

I thought you were doing a one man DIY but your son is helping

[@ajablonska82]

I've been watching your channel for years now. And although I live in the UK and things are a bit different in here I actually managed to renovate my entire house by learning from your videos. Thank you so much.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Well done!

[@SubdivisionAuto]

Congrats on the big 3 mill buddy! You did it! All the best!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Cheers Max!!!!

[@edim108]

I'm building a racing pigeon loft of my own and this series is really helpful. It's the first actual building project of my own and so far I gotta say I like working with wood a lot more than brick.

[@majedbalawy]

how nice it is to see you work with your son love you guys God bless you😘

[@rhondakennedy819]

So much knowledge!I like when you make mistakes so we can see how to fix them. So many tools. Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Thanks, will do! Cheers Rhonda!

[@proberts34]

My brother was a framing carpenter for many years. He would use the mantra of framing carpenters, "we're not building a piano", whenever I would start getting too fastidious.

[@jimlofaro5695]

you are so knowledgeable. so much appreciated. Thank you you as always. i will try and do it myself after learning from you.

[@davidschaum2625]

It's your shed, build it however you want, we're just happy to watch.

[@johnobrien8081]

33minutes Jeff,safety glasses missing!! Great videos!! From the UK

[@dalekierstead]

He is a true teacher of the work takes pride in his quality.

[@joeygallegos]

Whatever this new camera is, I like it. The quality is so much better. Cheers, Jeff!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

That was a sony fx6 with an Nd filter. netflix approved cinema camera.

[@greggy9786]

Good video to see how DIY framing can be done. Your step by step tutorial was excellent.

[@jimcollins3411]

Being a retired contractor and done a lot of my jobs by myself . So when you assemble the first section cut the top and bottom plate back 3/4 of an inch so the 1/2 of the stud sticks out past the sheathing edge 3'4 of an inch . The next section skip that first stud and put all the others in . When you stand it just work in in place and slid the second section of wall over to meet the first wall . Your sub wall sheathing will touch and meet in the center of the stud in the first wall . Now nail the sheathing from the first and second wall to that single stud because they will be in the center of that stud . There you have saved the cost and extra work of using that second stud you don't need . I hope this helps it's one of the little tricks I came up with after I quit using a crew in the last few years and did all my work alone accept for contractors on utilities , plumbing, electrical ect.

[@mistazipcoper]

Love how real this video is

[@kristopherkantor7627]

Built a shed years ago thanks to Jeff’s step by step PROcess.

[@enricopallazzo3244]

Good to see you and Matt getting along again.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

less tress and a lot of working on our relationship. Cheers to Matt. He is one hell of a Man!

[@enricopallazzo3244]

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I wasn’t being that serious. I appreciate when y’all work together, reminds me of when I built my house with pops. Some competitiveness and I’m sure annoyances working with someone you know so well. But overall a ton of respect and positive building experience. Cheers and thank you for all your help over the years!

[@Snid82]

It's awesome that you keep the budget in mind. Best bang for your buck.

[@bunsai9003]

I will definitely will use this video for building my shed, thanks for sharing, much appreciate it.

[@sheilamontoya7003]

Im always in awe if your videos. If i was younder and stronger I'd be building something you show. Thank you

[@buckeyejake9014]

Thank you for sharing your expertise and it's always great to see a father / son team working on a project, awesome job Dad. Great idea for breaking up the 16' walls into manageable sections someone can handle on their own. Correct me if I'm wrong, but for the front wall with door and windows, it appears the original measurement was off (184" vs 192"), making the door four inches left of center. I.e. wall section left of the door was 70" and wall section right of the door was 78". Hope you and your son continue to build, learn and grow together through every project. Blessings!!

[@austinwilder6425]

Matty stomping them boots overtop everything

[@nobody7232]

Love the way you show the odd mistake.. It happens.....

[@Brian-os9qj]

Dude, you are human, congratulations! Thx for the inspiring manageable build. Been looking for a system of build I can manage, inexpensively.

[@uhhuh.yeahsure]

Always crown your studs and have crown facing same direction. Makes finish carpentry easier

[@luanahaigood278]

You don’t know how much you hust saved me with this video. THANK YOU SO MUCH 💖

[@eclaro]

Man, I love your videos and how well you explain everything. God bless you and make you prosper!

[@LathanM]

I love that you show the mistakes. We all have put the brace on backwards at least once.

[@Hey_You_Me]

Love your attitude, great teacher.

[@SophiaAphrodite]

Your other shed you did I built one at my other place that was 10x10 referring to it and did all of it myself onto a concrete pad a couple years ago. The neighbors were impressed with me doing it all solo and the build quality and even being mindful to create a " doggy door" on the side for the lawn mower to maximize space which I think I got the idea from you.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Well done Sophia!

[@KolasName]

39:15 Tilted stud (third one on the far wall). Nice!

[@brettalbertson01]

My favorite source for DIY/building tutorials! Another trick I've seen for taking the twist out of a stud is to shoot one nail, then zip a screw a little ways into the wide face of the stud, use the claw of a hammer on the screw to lever the stud straight, and hold the tension there while you shoot the second nail. You can get it perfect and zip the screw back out afterwards to reuse.

[@ejmedina7065]

I love this shed, learned alot. Thank you Evelyn from Colorado

[@user-sv3xt1kq3x]

Very informative, videos have helped me a lot on my building projects. Wood Framing helped me in doing Light Gauge Steel Framing

[@douglasgriffith660]

“I had it in reverse. Imagine that.” This video makes me feel so much better about my skills or lack there of.

[@jamesbeecher4431]

Great job... I have an idea for over building of you are trying to upgrade a little. . It sounds like you're putting in a manufactured door. But they don't tend to be large enough to allow lawnmowers or snow blowers in them. And if they are, they tend to be expensive. One of the most abused parts of the shed is the door. If it is a utility shed for yard equipment, you will need to build the door to fit lawnmowers and other items in. And these doors tend to be heavy. I've done duel ~ 2' doors making a 4' total. This will make them wide enough for a lawnmower or snowblower into the shed or you could just open one side for a person to go in . IN this case I've used 4x4 pressure treated for the jack studs around the door. It is PR so if rain gets driven in it will be ok. And I use a 4x4 because I used gate type hinges with lag screws. The meat of a 4x4 is thick enough to handle the 3.5" lag screws. This will more than handle the weight of the door and any abuse it gets from being bumped by yard equipment.

[@h.m.2359]

Thanks for this awesome guidance and demonstration! 😊

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sarahwhiting325]

Love love love your channel. Just found you recently as want to replace my shed and build a deck for it to sit on. I am amazed and confused at the same time why here in the UK we have so little choice on materials and don’t have access to some of the ones that you’ve used. For example T1 11 sheeting, unheard of here! Which means more expensive option of sheathing and then cladding. And the inexpensive shed windows you used in previous video, nope! I live in a very exposed area and and it rains a lot here!! I will end up replacing a shop bought shed every few years at this rate. Thanks for your channel it’s given me the confidence to try 👍

[@htownblue11]

Jeff, thank you for all your instructional videos. Because of your input and knowledge I took the leap and am building a 12x14 modern shed on my property. You gave great advice, but also make it seem ok if you make a mistake as you can correct them. Thank you!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Exactly! Cheers

[@delta2080]

So much good intel. Much appreciated.

[@brucemartini2288]

while erecting walls, if you have already planned on shelves, good time to add bracing to mount shelf to

[@YelroM]

i didnt account for .... anything love that honesty

[@user-zb3ws1lv5x]

Thank you for the video Sir! 👍👍

[@LogHewer]

Awesome share, man. I learned a few tricks here. Thanks for taking the time to film it and subject yourseld to the peanut gallery of "expert builders." 😂

[@tombo552001]

Great video and glade you kept the mistakes in it, even the pros mess up some time.

[@aslayerfan]

We all do and will make mistakes! Thank you for showing us that Pros do it too!!

Damn Jeff! You are a damn genius! Please bless me Uncle Jeff.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!

"...genius to grade 2 stupid in about 20 minutes..." I almost choke don my lunch when you said that! LOL. Love the videos Jeff (and Matt)!!! Thanks for the info and the entertainment!

Im go building my first shed and i find the perfect video to how make it thanks guys

Thanks man, love tutorials like this!! Thank you so much

[@typorter-pp6lh]

“Whoops. Didn’t account for…anything.” Story of my life Jeff! 😂

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

sometimes when I am working on camera I completely forget about the math.

[@user-nk7bg6kg2k]

Excelente trabajo renovacion de casas gracias por compartirlos su conocimiento

[@roywood7658]

Love the details you provide, as well as how you resolve the minor mistakes along the way....very authentic, thank you. Couple of questions on the Camo blocks. In your previous video (building the floor), it appears that you only used 4 Camo blocks. In this video, I see an extra block mid way on the rim joist. Is there also an extra one on the opposite rim joist thus giving a total of 6 blocks? Did you have to first remove the sub floor to add the extra blocks?

[@peterfagley772]

Always a great pleasure watching and listening to you work on a project. The information and honesty is appreciated very much, makes me feel normal to see you make a mistake once in a great while. Looking forward to the next installment, Thank you!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Cheers Peter!

[@scottseymour2153]

What a awesome down to earth man! Great channel and amazing videos.

[@chrisls2006]

I'm really going to start using your line "I didn't account for...anything" whenever I mess up haha great video

[@savoielvis1]

i love this series !!!

[@IBeerGamez]

i love seeing the "mistakes". I have been a welding/fabricator for years now. I don't usually mess up until i'm trying to demonstrate something to a new guy. lol

[@stevesmith1493]

😂 This guy! Just absolutely winging it😂

[@andrewlupton2120]

The fail on the hinge brace when raising that first wall? I've totally done that! Part of doing DIY is mucking up every now and then. Always good to laugh about it!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

better to laugh then cry. Cheers!

[@blackterminal]

Thanks for your video.

[@rumplestillskin6424]

Tips were great

[@williamdc3104]

If you want to use the interior brace and have those benches up against the wall, you can just do a let in brace. It's a bit of work, but that's just Sweat Equity. Just need to notch out the studs and technically don't even need, for a structure that size, to use a 2 x 4, can just use a 1 x 4.

[@Oper8or]

From genius to grade 2 stupid is 100% accurate. Also applies to working in a hot attic. That quote is now on our epic quotes sheet at work. Thanks for that.

[@brentammon1083]

Nice that mistakes weren't edited out to save us some cuss-words putting this tutorial into practice! 😂Thanks!

[@bpb317]

This is a great how to.

[@tealkerberus748]

The way my dad taught me to join wall sections like your first two, instead of having two studs backed up to each other, have the join half way between two studs and a joining plate under the top plate and on top of the bottom plate, screwed to all the adjacent components to hold the join rigid. That way your stud spacing inside the wall is regular all the way along, and you can find the studs easily. If you don't put your ply sheathing on until the wall is standing up, you can sheath straight over the join and give it even more strength that way.

[@TruthHunter707]

Good Job!

[@tommccarrick18]

Thanks!

[@yesyes541]

King and jack stud, where does the queen stud go? 😂😂😂

[@Zenkai76]

I think Queen studs are only used in Taiwan

[@lexusnguyen2512]

Thank you 👍👍👍

[@michaelreyes6761]

You are the man

[@REktSigMa]

4:02 I probably would have cut a half sheet of sheathing to stack on top of the first whole sheet, so that on the second wall a whole sheet would have tied both walls together in the sheathing as well. That is why we always sheath after the walls are raised.

[@secretjourney4815]

6:00. the old "do it again Dad" technique in full effect. Hey, your human too. Glad to see it

[@sunsetusa343]

Wow, wonderful hands
