How to build a shed for $500 part 2 | building arches

[@okstes]

For me, the ideas in kzbin.infoUgkxy_pn55PK60wAV3X_C_RoLS_67mNonoCE Plans were a starting point for building different sheds . Ryan gives ideas that allow an individual to draw nicest conclusions into the design and building of his or her own shed.

[@Brian-os9qj]

Interesting illuminating and humorous. Very entertaining, people like entertaining. Thx man

[@peejee2656]

Thanx for putting this video on, by the power of KZbin an curiosity I've stumbled across it and went out and tried it with some pallet wood :-) and succeeded. Just a small two meter high hut. I'll be upscaling soon for a greenhouse.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

cool idea Rollo, I'd love to hear back about your greenhouse.

[@jordanyoud6923]

Excellent video Zach. I really appreciate your honesty. Has helped a bunch in my own process.

[@bossanovista]

I love this series of videos. Thank you for leaving in the mistakes and bloopers. It is entertaining and informative at the same time. The comments here are also good for more ideas. These videos give me hope that I can build an old fashioned Gothic Barn someday. Bless your heart

[@Physco219]

Have you stated this project yet?

[@bossanovista]

@@Physco219 A well and septic then a small house will have to come first but the grading for the barn will start during the septic work.

[@Seafariireland]

What a pleasant chap you are and thanks for the lesson!

[@grdelawter4266]

I gave you a thumbs up because of your honesty in the struggle to make these crazy things! I found your attitude to be refreshing and inspiring! I’ve been thinking of building one of these after giving up on building a geodesic dome. After watching videos, I’ve decided to use long 1X4 without knots so it will be stronger. I’ll have to see how long they are. The struggle is the fun part of learning.

[@LambieSamba]

I DID enjoy it! It is enormously useful, and I love learning from somebody else's mistakes instead of finding out myself! I would have turned the air blue when it fell, LOL, good no sound! Thank you, thank you!

[@jonbishop1385]

*Zack of all trades, Master of none! especially building arches for a building !*

[@glamptribe]

Thanks for sharing your process and lessons learned. This is gold.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

Great documentary! When using scavenger-type (full-thread) screws to assemble wooden frames, always pre-drill the top piece so the screw threads slip through it. That way the two pieces of wood are pulled tightly together. Unless you do this, the wood stays loosely connected and it loses the rigidity you need when framing. The other option is to use a screw that has a smooth shank below the head, like a deck screw.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

good point on the screws! (no pun intended)

[@idontknow2293]

Ok I'm hooked. Now I have to keep watching. 🙄🤗

[@daniellesimone7769]

Zack, your attitude is amazing; positive, open to learning and brave enuf to be kind to naysayers. "Tips" and info from people in-the-trade, so to speak, can - as evidenced by many of your posters...be shared in a professional and respectful manner. That said - thank you so much for your time and efforts for sharing with us all. Nice job. Keep that great smile!

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Danielle, it never ceases to amaze me some of the incredibly kind and encouraging people that I interact with here. Thank you so much for being just the encouragement I needed :) Your comment has had a huge effect both on my evening last night as well as my morning. Thank You!

[@daniellesimone7769]

As the song used to say, Zack; "What the World Needs Now, is Love, Sweet Love...", etc. Good strengths and FUN with you and your family's new home project!! Take care!! Danielle

[@johncnorris]

I've been know to involve myself in a little jack-assery from time to time. Welcome to the club!

[@wyore4344]

Zack, great build. many wonderful ideas; plus, of course, pitfalls to avoid. rgrds, walt

[@banditdog1338]

Zack it would be wonderful to have someone available to teach us all this stuff but most of us don't so I appreciate your videos. Most people make mistakes I know I've made plenty on my projects but each time you make a mistake you know you won't do it twice. Not bragging here, but I've managed to go from slinging a paint brush to building my own home from the ground up. And even with all my experience I am still learning new and better ways to do things and visit KZbin regularly to steal good ideas.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Thanks Bandit, I'm a huge fan of leaning by doing. I'm encouraged to hear about your home, I plan to be building within the next few years and sometimes that though gets overwhelming having been trained as an airplane fixer, not a house builder. I love hearing of people who are doers just doing it!

[@AndrewBrenner1]

This is a great reference now that I am actually starting my project.

[@tonymarcin7927]

Dude your a frikken nut!! ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Best regards and thank you so much for both the hints and the laughs! Peace

[@wojomojo]

Good project! I think plywood has half the plies placed perpendicular to the direction of bend which is not great. I'd definitely use furring strips with the wood fiber going along the bend. Also agree on preference of a lap joint with glue and screws.

[@passthetunaporfavor]

Thank you for posting this. Gives me some great ideas. All the best to you.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Thanks P.T.T. I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@Glader08]

thoroughly enjoying these! I'll be waiting for the part 3!

[@patricktobin1388]

After building a plywood sail boat, I would recommend making a scarf joint between the two pieces of plywood. The old boat builders standard is a 1x12 (for every one inch of wood depth the length is 12 inches). I did my joint with a jig and a router, using epoxy with a layer of fiberglass on each side. I know, over kill for a shed. But if this were a living space, I want all the strength I can get. I may tackle something like this, if I can get my HOA to "buy off" on it.

[@eddiealvarez2428]

Great Job Zack! Keep up the Hand Work, as in Life not all is Perfect. GOD Speed.

[@davidbarrett7424]

Liking your honesty and approach 👍

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Thanks a lot David!

[@jck9590]

Simpler solution using engineering 101 principles ( and save yourself some $$: Use 3/8 or 1/2 plywood for easier bending & less breakage. (I build wooden experimental aircraft). Then, to compensate for the thinner wall strength increase the depth of the inter-supports using 2x6 instead of 2x4. 2x8 even better. Double the depth of any beam (using same thickness materials) and you increase strength by four times. And the stiffness by 8 times. cutting those inter-web supports shorter and using more of them helps to disperse the wind loads moire evenly as well. As you get closer to the ground, they need to be closer spaced to handle the heavier loads there. Another tip: on the bendiest section of the catherdral arch, the midddle...have a single piece of ply. No joints. That's the weakest part of the structure. Also, some Titebond 2 or 3 owuld be a huge, inexpensive upgrade to the joint strength, in addition to the screws. Less $$, lighter, and easier to handle...same or greater strength. Also, the more plies in the sheet, the better.

[@johnprystupa4896]

Jc Knight I'm going to take on a smaller similar project and I have to say I like the comments and constructive information..better then condensending trolls who on post negative information without an alternative..or offered tips (makes me question their validity)

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

JC, thank you for your approach, and the information conveyed therein. It's good info and I appreciate it as well as your experience that it comes from.. Cheers

very good video i enjoyed the commentary and the observations you had from what you learned.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Yeah some of it was a bit humbling and frustrating to learn, but thats half the benefit of watching somebody do something on KZbin, learning from their mistakes so you don't have to make the same ones. I didn't want to lose that for the sake of a little pride lol

[@NDCTV]

you are a funny bugger. good job . love the presentation. cheers from australia

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Hey thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it ;)

[@jeffreybrozenick2240]

Just a thought! why not use multiple 1/4 inch plywood and sandwich and glue them together so the joint is spread out more and you end up with a curved board before you join top to bottom

[@fishhuntadventure]

That’s the boatbuilder/woodworker/engineering way of doing it for sure. But i would not use plywood either. Regular plywood anyway- marine plywood has no internal voids. People think marine plywood is rot-resistant, but it’s not. The reason marine plywood is used is because of the no-void construction which has no stress risers letting it bend without failure.

[@woodymurphy4522]

Thanks for showing the screw ups. Most people edit them out so they look better. I need to know what can go wrong so I can avoid it. I figure things out that way. So glad you are posting this as it.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Thanks Woody, I feel like it's a lot more useful that way.

[@leestephenson4952]

This was sadly hilarious, cause it reminded me of me. Keep rollin

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Lol, glad you could identify!

[@homesteadwannabee4253]

Just an idea... Before you put your first board in the corner, screw the first two blocks on it. (The spacer blocks at 18"). Then you won't have to worry about getting the driver in the corner. Just imho . Blessings ~

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Brilliant!! no, seriously lol I wish I'd thought of that but was so wrapped up in the current blunder that I couldn't see the forest for the trees. That would have made things a lot easier.

[@richardgates7479]

Or you could have just slid the plywood sheets away from the wall, enough to slip spacers in if needed.

[@edwarnock4534]

Great video! As I watched this I thought something like this could be made quickly in emergency or disaster situations! Very cool design!

[@Manocooper]

Good job. If yor not learnin' yor just sittin still. KZbin is fine but you learn by doin. As always I appreciate yor time and effort.

[@Maybe-You-Know-Me-Not]

I built my last shed for the price of the screws and my time. Pallets, 9’x9’x 9’ it’s been through 2 Alaskan winters both with 4’ of snow that I never shoveled off.

[@12vLife]

Very nice. subbed. Think possible to build these so they can achieve R-30 insulation using rockwool. R-30 rockwool is like 7.5 inches thick. Think possible to pass Florida primary residential dwelling building codes with this style construction? I have a an 80x100 residential lot in a rural area with sparse modest houses about mile away. My central Florida (zone 2) lot faces a preserve so no front neighbors. I talked to the county who said no issue with aesthetics or interior open concept. No issues with not having widows on the sides.. but only an engineer can say if it will meet structural, wind and energy codes. Talked to a few local engineers and general contractors and nobody is interested in this unorthodox idea - seems too many unknowns or too small of a job. I have a small test I did on my channel.

[@davemason6501]

If you live where it snows, I would suggest avoiding plywood with voids for the same reason it broke. The voids will always be a weak point, along with the joints, in your structure.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Yeah, I'll not do this with this grade of plywood again.

[@michaelkaiser4674]

Thanks for sharing life with enthusiasm

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

It"s my pleasure, thanks for taking the time to watch it!

[@dahutful]

Never underestimate the value of a wide open workspace, and always remember you NEED that for many projects that seem so easy on video.

[@MsPoliteRants]

Question: i still want straight walls because we are planning to build a studio; can these arches be placed atop a rectangular wall base? Can we make it more like a barn but without such a tall ceiling?? I don’t want a 20ft ceiling on my 15ft wide structure.

[@kennyc388]

It seems like it would be a good thing if you could have finger- jointed and glued your 2 arch pieces??

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

It certainly couldn't hurt!

[@barbaraannen8126]

I'm made arches with 2x12. Cut a big "C" out of one side from end to end, then gluing and screwing that "C" to the back side.

[@thommytwotoestimesthree847]

Making the gussets longer/larger and the brace for raising is toenailed first, along with stakes as cleats. It's advisable to use a second man but you're good enough...so we expect you to suck it up. Good vids, bro. Good job.

[@9011combo]

Now you motivate me even more...

[@willbibler7263]

I used chearer 3/8 plywood I also used different plans from a university co=op I also ripped my own 1x2s from 2x4s on one of those small craftsman table saws. I used 4 1x8 boards as base and car rails. for the cap I cut 2 of the 1x8s edges at 30 degrees. I set 4x4s in the ground to mount the base rails to. Made temp jigs to hold the cap up, then put in the inside part of the arch. next I added the 1x2s lengthwise about 2 feet apart. Then added the outer plywood strips to the arch. Its a 12x7 building it took 2 people 2 days to build and its lasted 14 years as a chicken coop.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Sounds like a winner Will!

[@willbibler7263]

The 3/8 plywood was the cheapest buy. It was 3 ply. When you set the 4x4 posts make sure you leave enough 1x8 outside of the post to attach the plywood strips on the ends. If the building is 8ft long then the post will be set 7 in shorter than that if the strips are cut at 3.5 in. I also used the inside of the posts to attach framing rails for the floor. You can also set longer 4x4 posts and build sidewalls to make it taller. In case you wish to add a sleeping loft. Reclaimed pallet wood can be used on the roof then covered with almost ant type of roofing. THX for the highlight.

[@НиколайЛаушкин-ь1ы]

​@@willbibler726313:48

[@kylekallies3381]

Do you have a list of materials that you used to build this?

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

I'm sorry kyle, I dont.

[@thecowconspiracy1587]

I think i might be using screws designed to withstand sheer stresses. Also an overlap of at least 12” screwed at both sides would avoid breakage. 3/4” dense ply without gaps costs only $2 bucks more....I recently put a subfloor on and found it at a big box store (starts with ‘L’ and rhymes with ‘Bows’) and found the marine ply for $3 LESS than the junk board.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

that's an awesome deal on great plywood! Knowing what I know now I would absolutely spend the money on the better plywood.

[@lesliesadler8524]

I can't wait for the next video. I engineer some of my own creations with some of the same results.

[@rogermccaslin5963]

Might be a minor thing but I would have just used a butt block at the strip joints. In fact, I think you could use a full width spacer block as a butt block and kill two birds with one stone. No lap joint to get in the way when sheathing.

[@evelinacornelii8246]

Sorry, what caind of wood? Tank’s from Italy

[@johnlittle1137]

Also soak the planks in water and a pva glue mix and they bend easier and will last a lot longer

[@dianeparmley5151]

Claim the things you want by feeling and believing they are yours.

[@pattysherwood7091]

I would not use plywood strips for the arches. First, they are too weak , and they do not have the same properties as natural wood when bent. The arches must have strength which is created by its material and by its being bent. Make a jig on a wooden frame. More guide blocks is better to help slowly bend the wood strapping into place and to ensure a uniform shape to the arch. The arches can take a variety of bends, which is really ugly. When you double the length, overlap it more and place your center blocks at those joints and add an extra block where you see a straining area. (Extra blocks can bother you later, but not much.) Another reason NOT to use plywood is that if you cover the shed with a plastic, water can sweat and condense in the shed, which makes the plywood vulnerable to moisture. You want to watch that even with wood strapping.

[@johnnyllooddte3415]

ahaha 16 ft ,, 13 ft,, will bend with out a jig...ahaha all day long

[@johnnyllooddte3415]

thats why they make treated lumber

[@pattysherwood7091]

hehehehe. If you want to grow weed in a greenhouse, you can't use treated lumber. It is not organic.

[@Gantzz321]

adding more blocks would not prevent the plywood from the break, cause the breaks occured before you reach the bend radius.

[@fishhuntadventure]

Not so. How you achieve the bend determines breaking propensity all else being equal. Building an 8- or 10-foot caul to establish the bend would probably eliminate the breakage entirely. Using strapping from a mill or lumber company (not a box store!) would be better, 16’ materials available, and using a caul would be way stronger, take less time, and cost about the same. Lowers, Home Despot just sell stuff like mere commodities and aren’t sensitive to construction requirements. They sell SKUs not ‘lumber.’

[@rusosure7]

I'd have rotated the first piece of OSB a quarter turn, since you didn't need 8' of width there. And because I'm a geek. lol

[@joefunk2137]

Nice work!

[@Seafariireland]

Good to be productive!

[@SlantedGlasses]

How long are the two pieces of 1x4 before they are bent into the arches?

[@fishhuntadventure]

He says in the video 15’8”

[@MrSteeDoo]

"Angle of the dangle"Funny, don't hear that one much these days.

[@twagner6155]

I would use solid wood too but then you might get breaks on the knots. CDX plywood isn't made for that application. I just wouldn't construct the whole thing like that.

[@mpmansell]

If you can't choose wood without knots, cut out the knots, an laminate several layers with decent glue in the jig.

[@TheOneWhoMightBe]

I'm guessing that where the boards that are breaking is near the joint? This will a weak point, as a full-lap joint has virtually no strength. A better joint would be a half-lap joint (the ply is probably too thin to use a Bridle joint, or you don't have the appropriate tools) that is *glued* and screwed. The longer the half laps, the better. Additionally you could put a short piece of 1/8th/3mm bracing ply over each side of the joint (also glued). This will distribute the load better than just a 3*4 inch full lap.

[@waltlars3687]

I have been think of building something like this useing 1/2" PVC pipe for a green house with same size pipe in between with a 1/2 dowel glue in the short pipe sections holding it together with wood screws going through the long pipes into the wood dowel

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Thats a cool idea Walt! let me know if you go for it, how it turns out.

[@itsdanbooth]

Sounds like it'd blow away though!

[@sonofeloah]

Not if the base is anchored and there are some cross beams/pvc pipe to stop the sway.

[@Laffy1345]

Nice I'm a fan. Lead by example.

[@robertmiller2315]

a suggestion: after your boards are ready to be formed try soaking them in water and they should bend easier and safer.

[@fishhuntadventure]

And be weaker, and shrink away from the fasteners.

[@howesfull8]

Hi Zack. I may have done it differently, but you DID it. You get credit. Nice production, and I appreciate the "what I did right and what I did wrong" at the end. What part of the country?

yeah, maybe I should have.

[@colin-manyeates-clan5221]

Wow, positive suggestions and woho turd comments how dangerous this is etc... when you do it and learn and share your lesions we all understand why. But the obvious "Professional" or as I like to say "Expert" (ex-spert) fail to recognize.. this is to build a really cheap building... Ok that said, check on costs but sometimes you can get thin board, paneling etc on sale and then you can cut the strips and glue them together in the jig,,, will be super strong and not need to be as thick plus keep its shape too even without the blocks .. removes tension. and of course paint every surface .. really thick like a glue covering... but what do I know I'm not an "ex-spert" ... past tense spert... .. Great to see people Doing!!!!

You could probably do this for much cheaper (not to mention faster and easier) using repurposed 70's/80's mobile home roof "trusses" - which are available in most parts of the country for pennies on the dollar. But I admire your stick-to-it-ness and your willing-to-learn-itude.. lol

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Thanks Bird, that's what it's largely about for me. Coming up with some hair brained idea, giving it a shot, learning something (or lots of somethings) new, and passing it on to the fair viewer so as He or She can start off a little ahead of where I did. Cheers!

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Indeed, I feel like people can learn as much from my mistakes as from my successes. If you haven't seen it already you might find value in the Lessons Learned video I did on this shed. Here's a link to it kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3iXYn2glJqLb7s

[@c50gegreg28]

"The angle of the dangle." ( is proportional to the heat of the meat )

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

lol indeed

[@dimplesthebus1133]

I plan to build this. I will soak the wood in water first as I know it would bend easier than dry.

[@akbychoice]

Peanut Blondie make a steam tube to put strips of wood in. A canning pressure cooker with some copper and high temp hose leading into a piece of metal gutter down spout. Cap one end with the steam piped in, put your piece or two in and lay a damp rag to seal off the open end. Makes bending the wood more uniform.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Both solid ideas in my opinion (for whatever that's worth). Steaming it would certainly make the bending process better but it seems like at a total of 48 strips it would take forever. It's certainly not lost on me that sometimes to do things "right" you must take the slower course of action, I guess for me it would depend on how "temporary shed" or "permanent structure" you're going for. I really want to try some steam bending, thanks for making me think!

[@ThisOldMan-ya472]

You don't want to soak plywood. Just sayin. And, if you soak wood(I might try this design using 1x4 boards and 4x4 blocks), it should be dried before gluing.

[@dimplesthebus1133]

I'm definitely going to give your idea a try, thank you for a great description.

[@thommytwotoestimesthree847]

Don't soak plywood. The lamination layers are too thin. Separation will occur.

[@thecowconspiracy1587]

So are those neighbors thrilled with a family living next door in a shed...or have you specified that yet...? 😂

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Part of the beauty of my shed being in a place where I can't see the "neighbors" (I didn't specify proximity) is that I don't have to care what the neighbors think of what I do on my own property.

[@TheGeohart]

always use MDO, or strapping

[@cleevepakeel4870]

good idea, however you should use better plywood and most importantly, you should stagger your joints. the way you have it now will fail.. IMO.

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Hey Cleeve thanks for the suggestion. Although it was toward the end of the video, 8:37 to be specific, I made the very same suggestion. I hope you're wrong about the joint failure but time will certainly tell the tale. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@cleevepakeel4870]

Oh I must of missed that part. But I really like the building/ idea! I wouldn't mind building something like that for my dad. He's got lots of crap/junk I have to pry out of his hands too throw away.!!!

[@cleevepakeel4870]

also, can you put weight on the building like shingles or some kind of weather proof roof or cover?

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

Well, I think you can lol. I intend to put some sort of more substantial cover on it (shingles or metal roofing) I'll be sure to let you know if it comes down!

[@JamieTransNyc]

Or... save all the work, and make those arches out of pipe, even pvc

[@ZackOfAllTrades]

That is a really good suggestion, and one that I've actually been thinking about for a while. Maybe I'll try building one on a smaller scale as a greenhouse or something. Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching!
