Top trade trips and tricks, I always learn new skills and full information about my upcoming projects from you mate, best educational video..keep the good work up..thanks mate

[@mitre10nz]

Thanks so much for your feedback! We are so glad you are enjoying the videos 👍 ^Ed

[@peterbrown1968]

thank you for showing me that video now my wife can get 2 new garden sheds for me to play with. she wants to shed she will help me to set it up lol

[@ngahiwiapanui7392]

This is awesome. I bought a Trade Tested shed and the instructions are pretty useless. This is slightly different but the basic principles are the same and I was able to complete the assembly of the shed without any issues.

[@afumbomanselm2017]

Great videos Sir. God bless you

[@timbledum]

This video was... riveting.

[@daniellemunyalo2464]

Cheers for the Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you tried - Mahorrla Wooden Paradise Method (probably on Google)? It is a good one of a kind guide for building better sheds and woodworking minus the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cooworker at very last got astronomical success with it.

That back corner is going to hold water after rains. When I built my shop I had the exact problem. It was at least 2’ difference. I had to grade the dirt down so it would drain and wouldn’t corrode my shop tin and flood the shop.

[@drkresearch2945]

Without containment the earth will collapse and rest against the sheet metal encouraging corrosion.

[@louiselowe1568]

Perhaps he’s keeping it to do a land scape video lol

[@billiewikitera2617]

We bought the same kit set (slightly bigger though) and it took a good day to put it all together. First lot of rain shed was drenched through🤦🏻‍♀️ Not quite understanding how we could have avoided that when followed instructions to a T when putting it together. Also defeats the purpose of spending all that money and energy on a shed to only have all our tools soaking wet after the first downpour. Highly disappointed but would appreciate any insight if anyone has some as to how this happened or how we can now stop it from happening in the future?

[@MamaMia....]

Good to the point stuff. Thanks.

[@OilBaron100]

You guys do some great videos!

[@tracyosborne954]

Thanks for the vid - one query: that's not the corner (3.49) but some few cms inside the corner. How many cms? And is it the same on the other side? It looks to be right on the corner for that one...Thanks, T

[@eltongabriel8042]

Thanks again for your help and support you like it I just need to know if how are much things

[@ThursdaySessionsbandPH]

Why do you need to add rivets on the 2nd rib of top and back roof? I'm confused..

[@NZDivine]

in case the wind gets under it and rips the roof off.

[@JasonLee-ex5sz]

Can a shed be used as an office?

[@mitre10nz]

That depends on your needs Jason, but if you grab one big enough and grab some insulation, then you could be good to go! ^Cam

[@coralalgie2771]

So how do you do it when using the wooden floor? instructions please.

[@mitre10nz]

Hey there, we'd suggest popping in and having a chat to the team in store about that one ^Matt

[@durianriders]

I made one of these sheds. Filled it with hydro set up. Got arrested and just got out of prison.

How do you install one of these without the concrete thingy at the bottom

[@mitre10nz]

Hi Joseph - Storite (the brand of shed used above) also supply Rite Wooden Floor packs which is an alternative to the concrete. Hope this helps ^Ian

[@SaraSara-og8qd]

I am leaving in Widnes and I need someone to do that for me (montage) how much will u charge me to do it …. ?

[@mitre10nz]

Hey Sara, we'd recommend contacting someone in your area if you need help with assembly^Matt

[@SaraSara-og8qd]

And how do I do that where I contact someone from my area?

[@mitre10nz]

Hi Sara, thanks for reaching out. If you would like to connect with a local Mitre 10, please visit our store locator here: www.mitre10.co.nz/store-locator ^Stephen

[@alexbowser9801]

Is the lowest edge of the is below ground level? What for?

[@mitre10nz]

We'd recommend installing onto a concrete pad or wooden floor planks which we also sell in store 😊 ^Cam

[@alexbowser9801]

@@mitre10nz I don't mind but I'm asking about the shed from your video

[@mitre10nz]

Hi Alex. In this video the ground has been altered to make sure it is level so the shed, and concrete pad, will sit flat. ^Ryan

What’s that yellow fan called??

[@mitre10nz]

Hey there not too sure what fan you are referring to? Did you mean the riveter? ^Matt

[@EJAZenarosa]

Thank you

[@CoffeeBacon365]

this is less 'assembling' and more 'build from scratch with pre-cut stuff'. Seriously, how hard would it have been for you to pre-build the panels, so we only need to bolt them together for the same cost?

[@og_rowie_1263]

bloody oath just bought one in 2022 lol

[@DawnReeveGoldendawn]

Just as a question - does anyone know if you can use the screws instead of the rivets - I am thinking of only putting up a shed temporary - and then storing it away afterwards (for easy moving).

[@zaquanhenry]

use rivets , they look better and are stronger

[@tristo1987]

Yes you can. They are self drilling. You can also drill out the rivet heads and remove.

[@bronwynheihei4361]

Nah

[@danielbubbus9971]

tristo1987 ff

[@jrgal27]

do not worry this shed is temporary anyway

[@canisrah]

There's no way in hell I'd be able to do this. Its not easy as... may as well do a video of wrestling a Bengal tiger with your bare hands and concluding that is easy as!

[@fenderOCG]

First of all, you want to grab the tiger by the ears. Avoid the teeth, as less blood will make cleaning up later a breeze. Next, straddle the tiger and ride it like you would a horse. Use the natural aggression of the tiger and steer using the ears to slot him neatly into the cage you prepared earlier. Easy as!

[@mianbao0749]

And the problem is, we dont have the tools

@@KiwiPokerPlayer 🤣

[@geopolitix7770]

Because the Promark one would've given up on the first panel?

[@graemeboyd5294]

Key advice not given is support of the ribs when drilling - they just collapse. Shouldshow how to prevent this - support from underneath is required

[@mitre10nz]

Hi Graeme - Cheers for the feedback on this. I will pass it along to the team to look into further. Thanks ^Ian

[@ingramfry7179]

They insisted that you had to buy the floor separately in store, costs the same as the shed itself. But this came with no instructions.
