how to build a BUDGET storage SHED part 2 ARROW NEWPORT DIY 10 x 12 metal building

[@AliWeighsB4AliBuys]

Grandma here has shed this same shed sitting in storage a few years. I read directions, played it out in my mind, separated all parts in order of installation, and yet never trusted myself. Also, it’s a real reality check when you open the box and realize the materials are razor blade sharp. I can’t see any reason for this. It’s a simple fix just to add one more machine process and add a 1/8” or 1/16” fold on the panels before stamping into shape. Anyhow, I didn’t have faith in myself to go it alone and I was not willing to ask anyone to put themselves in danger. After watching you explain, walk through the basics, bring attention to problems that we may face along with very clever problem solving to press on … well, hey, that baby going up this year!!! Thank you for helping me and so many others. The video process is as hard as the construction itself! You paid a price to bless many, and personally, I can’t thank you enough. You are a true blessing ♥️ and amazingly gifted in taking an overwhelming project and transforming it into something simple & do-able.

This building is kicking my butt, but in the name of being frugal, I shall get it done thanks to your video!

[@chriscraft2]

keep in mind someone in the comments said they built the whole building in 2 hours 🤟😊🤟

[@matthewmartina5708]

Great video! Straightforward, approachable, down-to-earth, only the relevant information, no fluff. You gave the entire experience and provided an accurate demonstration of how long it would take and how difficult it would be. Really really useful. Thank you very much!

[@apostleemilcedeno5269]

Excellent video. The good, the bad, and the ugly! You're the man.

[@vickiesims643]

I am putting together a 6x5 and I am a visual learner. I was stuck on the top frame and not understanding how to put on the doors. Your video helped me finish my project. Thank you.

[@deanberg9249]

Thanks for the video. Will be building one of these sheds and your video has helped a lot!

[@rubentorres1131]

I got the same one in the back yard now. Thank you for making a video ,showing how to build it !!

[@kathrynrussell1597]

These are great videos. Thank you. Clear and easy to follow.

[@KF1]

Great video. Made me laugh and cry building this and their 24x12 garage

[@cynthiacrawford1573]

Be glad it's not a Vida XL shed.Their directions are terrible.And they don't label stuff as they are supposed to.Also there are forklift holes through the 800.00 shed they sent.And if you contact them ,they they tell you to go watch videos that don't exist on the internet.So in the future I'll be buying the brand this guy bought.I'm so grateful for you filming this.

[@Eagle-lm7gp]

Thank you for sharing your great DIY shed 😊

[@wireuwrapped]

Your video has helped me a lot. I’m nervous about building the shed because I’m building it by myself. I was wondering how to do the roof because the instruction showed do one side and then the other and I’m wondering how the heck do you get up there? The way you did it is your, doing both sides at the same time and working your way out. That’s important and that’s a lot easier. You could stand on a ladder and do that at the peak. Only difference in me and you is I’m a 61-year-old woman gonna do this by myself. I’m used to building a lot of furniture so this is gonna be like building every piece of furniture I’ve ever built at one time I think.😅

[@chriscraft2]

the instructions say to have a helper. It was 10/10 difficulty for me on a few sections. if I ever build another one I will pay someone to help me for sure

[@cynthiacrawford1573]

I'm planning on spray foam or sheet insulation. And I hear it makes it more solid as well.

[@redfiresvt]

spray foam will definitely make it more solid.

[@warblerblue]

So did the spray foam work?

[@cynthiacrawford1573]

@@warblerblue I got held up so will be doing it when it cools off.Ive added wood supports so far on top of what came with the shed.

[@oralwayne7273]

Awesome job teacher tomorrow i finish my 10 x 12

[@scott9722]

Yep, agree 10/10 difficulty! had to re-watch a few parts of your video to see where I went wrong. 3 days down and i just have a few more things to finish up. Will be worth it very soon!

[@chriscraft2]

the building is worth it.. mine still looks perfect to this day.. some guy in the comments said he built his in 2 hours..

[@zsavage1820]

Did mine by myself in 2 hours.. never did one before.... but I did stay at a holiday in last night.. Had to edit this... I said 2 hours.. that's funny... took 2 days.. my bad... what really slowed me was that it rained and the roof panels were numbed with friggn ink that all washed off in the rain... I mean EVERY ONE of the panels have NO numbers on them... so had to lay them out in the grass so I could see any difference.. and did.. thanks again for this video... these sheds are great ... I am replacing a 10x13 with a 10x12... the 10x13 had been standing over 20 years.. only thing was it rusted and the doors fell apart .. other then that.. it was still standing...lol the paint was holding it together i think...

[@johnmizell1842]

I read that spray on foam insulation improves the rigidity and keeps condensation from forming on the inside of the shed.

[@shanematz5653]

Thanks for the tips brother. I have been on mine for 2 days and it whooping my butt, also I messed up with my door track.

[@ivalle38]

Just finished building mine yesterday it was a pain when shit don't line up correct that's when it gets tough.. but is a good-looking building once it's complete

[@chriscraft2]

it is.. i love mine.. no regrets at all..

[@lorencallaway4092]

What about the leaks that develop between the base of the shed and the metal flashing? I used silicone caulking inside and out and had to remove the door channel and silicone under it.

[@reyrey7516]

But its the best one and the most helpfull good job. Tape come in handy too

[@Johntheheadache]

I don't usually worry about this kind of thing much where where I live...But the screws that fasten the latches to the doors, I feel like I will change those screws and use some of them one way screws that you need to have a special key to even put them in, cause I agree...if you're gonna put bikes or valuables in there...someone could just unscrew the latches out and you padlock would come right out.

[@luisserrano8551]

Thank you for this video. My daughter wants me to build her one....wish me luck

they are good buildings for the price.. try to make a floor like I did.. makes a world of difference..good luck

How much should one charge to assemble one? No wood floor needed, only the assembly. With 2-3 people how long would it take?

[@rbatts9163]

Nice work ! Looks great !

[@dch.projects]

Seems like you could raise the height by adding another board around the platform and attach the frame to that, no?

[@OvertheRoadVideos]

Thanks for this video. About to tackle this exact shed in the next week or so. Very helpful! Sub'd

[@houseoffire72]

As a builder I gotta say I was pretty upset having to buy one of these. But since I have a shoulder injury stick built is near impossible. I followed the directions to a Tee. Fricken ribs were off by almost 2" overlap on the the last wall panel on both sides and back wall. Needless to say but today was a wasted day with assembly & disassembly a few times.

[@hgp9535]

Omg I just bought this wish me luck

[@bar20bbq70]

nice job.thanks for the video.

[@kristonpohlman2685]

Heck yea!! Looks good

[@babystarz1948]

How do you put the Spring assembly on the garage door

[@zsavage1820]

the shed is like an over complicated cabinet.. to me being a cabinet builder 20+ years it was super easy to assemble.. just time consuming and tedious, if you can read directions and know how to use the clutch on a drill.. it's easy.... Just my thoughts. THE Z

[@shawnp8429]

You can just jerk doors to left or right and it will open locked or not

if you build your plywood floor wider than the shed it will … some water gets in mine but not enough to matter

[@williamfarnsworth9781]

Me too 🤣😊

[@Noneya-bw5gm]

I'm building this now. Take my advice...if you have any carpentry skills at all, just build a shed of wood. Use this as an excuse to get a compressor and nail gun. You can literally knock it together in half a day and the roof the next. Doing it out of this kit is stupid complex and filled with opportunity to get something backwards, or swapped, causing you to disassemble and reassemble it. Never mind the lack of markings on many of the parts, leaving you to guess what they are, and bad quality cuts and poor quality bolts and nuts. I aslo have no confidence this shed will survive and strong thunderstorm with accompanying winds. Guess I'll find out and if not, toss it and build it of wood.

[@arthurrivera4230]

Looks like way smaller than 10 x 12 !

[@jaymz0074]

I've must have said a 100 times this shed is a piece of shit while building it but once done its pretty sturdy for having flimsy ass sheet metal, I've already added a metal studs for wall and ceiling for more support and insulated it. Would I buy again, nope.

@@chriscraft2 I’m a retired Building Contractor living in South Fla. You know winds here can get ugly even when it’s not a Hurricane. I know what it takes to anchor a small building, heck, I even reenforced the inside with stud framing and anchored the bottom platform sill to the concrete slab, built trusses with cross member for stability during high winds and even placed metal straps on all four walls for a strong and stable structure. Then, last year’s last strong winds, destroyed it!!😫 I went ahead and pulled permit to build an out house/ storage shed out of cinder block, rebar, and solid concrete corners and tie beams!! No more fooling around!!
