How to build a simple 4 'x 8' storage shed under $380 dollars

[@Al-wm4je]

Would be nice if you include the tools such a nail gun model and size of nails and screw you used to build that shed for people never used those tools,

[@davidrichter9164]

😭

[@NumberDZ]

Per your request I have included all the tools I used, you can find them under the "product" tag on the video.

For real! Some of these people are assholes..damn do you want him to come build it for you to?? Jeez Thank you so much for this video! Looks nice and I can't wait to try it.

[@mambi74]

So many of these "shed" project vids turn out to be $10K broom closets with guys working w a freaking pro-shop stuffed with all kinds of equipment because they're really just promotional videos for Home Depot or are sponsored by a green tool company. This is the best real-life (cost in mind) actual shed vid I've seen. Awesome stuff.

I like this build. It is very simple and easy for me to copy and add some tweaks for the shed that I will be adding to my son’s farm. A steeper pitch for snow loads in my area. Thanks so much for sharing it!

Thank you for sharing this build. Easy and with basic tools.

[@NumberDZ]

I'm glad you found it helpful!

[@JRMcDowell]

Well I have 2 complaints, the first is that you dug it below grade, making for a place for water to gather and rot your floor. Second the pitch of the roof is very slight and in a heavy rain storm water will back fill and hit that window and back wall and run between the house and shed rotting that back wall. Otherwise I like the build, it is simple and easy to do, makes for a great storage place for gardening tools and stuff you need to store away for winter. I hope you take my complaints as constructive criticism, in hope to do it better in the future. I like that you added vents with a smaller mesh screen to keep bugs out and let hot air out of the shed. I also like how you did the roof, over all its a great build and design. So good job.

[@NumberDZ]

The base framing is below grade, however, there's good slope around it, the water does not pool in that area, it flows away from it. The roof pitch may not be visible in the video, however, in person you can clearly see that the front section is lower compared to the back, the rain water drains perfectly fine towards the front, we have had heavy rain and no water goes towards the back wall. Thanks for your feedback 👍 don't forget to subscribe.

[@orlandonunez5761]

@@NumberDZI have another complain , I’m not the expert this seems reasonable about how flows the water, just wondering about the guard on the grinder, that disc looks dangerous, and for sure I’ll try to do a similar shed for my backyard, would be great if you share how many material you bought for it and the kind of tools you have used, thx!

[@abitoferthang3788]

@@orlandonunez5761 using the grinder without the protection is dangerous, however sometimes the protector gets on the way that’s why I removed it. I have included all the tools I used for this shed, you can find them under the “product” tag on the video.

this is what I plan to build this spring, but with the door on the side instead of the front. Well done

[@NumberDZ]

I was also planing on putting the door on the side but after you start putting stuff in it, it gets difficult to reach the stuff all the way in the back, if you build it wider like 6’x 8’ you will have enough space to go around.

[@levitch]

@@NumberDZ thats a good point

[@talmonhubbard7544]

Do you have a list of supplies to buy to build this shed?

[@wizardmaster6639]

no slope for the roof? where will rainwater go? also, about the hinges, you should have installed them in a hidden way so the screws are no exposed while locked - more secure.

[@rickkern5785]

I am amazed he didn't know 6" of the front of the shed.

[@jasonkloos6348]

It is sloped.

[@Kro_man_tx]

This would need proper siding where I live. That OSB sheeting wouldn't last long with the amount of rain we get.

[@NumberDZ]

Yes, this OSB is not very friendly with excessive rain.

I gotta build one of these to house my haunted house panels; I've left them out year round for years and now I'm going to have to junk a lot of the wood and not once did I think, 'hey build a fricken' shed to keep your wood for years and years.' fun project coming up!

[@NumberDZ]

Yeah you should do it before you waste more material, it's pretty easy to do.

[@beholdiamglamdringsbane89]

I really like the way you both used and held the level as a rip guide. Imma use that, thanks. Probably when I copy this shed. :)

[@BigHeinen]

Nice build and well done video. One suggestion I might offer is to place a sheet of plastic on top of the final layer of dirt @ 2:10 so the floor won't rot. Thanks for a great DIY video!

[@NumberDZ]

That's a great idea!, thanks for watching.

[@redjeepyellowjeep-qz2on]

Is it too late after it already done?

[@BigHeinen]

@@redjeepyellowjeep-qz2on If you read my post it says to install it at 2:10 which is DURING the construction phase, not after the build is done. So of course it would be too late after it's done.

[@kikerules]

I hired a company to make me a big shed(electric,a/c,etc)..I asked about something like that and they told me that water will always go under the shed and water need to drain so they compacted I think about 12 inches of pea rock/I saw vids of guys placing tubes to better drain water if it gets under shed /I was advised not to do concrete pad )

[@kikerules]

Of course I'm no expert about that but I had to pass different inspections from the city and it seemed correct info

[@conchim99]

Thanks man. I just did mine m to my 2 or 3 partial days to get the materials and stuffs.

[@NumberDZ]

Lol thanks for watching.

[@mishano6087]

Comming from a seasoned framer, well done. That was extremely efficient build even for a 4x8 , I don't know that the blocking was structurally necessary but definitely Dosent hurt and will be handy for utility inside ike hanging hooks, brackets etc. my only I Guess 'critique' is why you doubled up the stud on the front wall facing the backyard, I mean I get why you did it, so that that side of the door is 3½" finished instead of just 2" and my thought was that you may add a door latch later and you wanted some more meat for it however with just a lock hasp it probably isn't necessary but it does look better, what I would have done is rather than double that corner I would have made it an an outside facing L because you'd use the same amount of lumber but that outside corner would be even more substantial, instead of a finished 3½" it would have been a finished 5". Small thing mostly a matter of preference at that point it's not as if the price of one 2*4 makes a real difference so I can see why you wouldn't just put a single there.

[@luismolina3253]

Nice work plain and simple I'm ready to do one now.

[@mikemcdonald5147]

never seen those plastic wavy things for the roofs before. Those are nice. Do you remember what they call them>? I have seen foam ones but they degrade over time.

[@NumberDZ]

Home Depot sells them, look for “Polycarbonate Corrugated Roof Panel” mine are 26 inches x 12 ft.

[@assog5737]

That polycarbonate roof is available in 4x8 sheets also. And of coarse there is a price difference between the 4x8 sheets and the smaller ones. But once you buy those plastic inserts and the screws to attach the smaller ones. You end up spending more than if you just bought the 4x8 sheet.

[@NumberDZ]

My local Home Depot doesn't carry 4x8, otherwise I would have bought that size

[@assog5737]

@@NumberDZ Mine doesn't either.

[@i3diamonds]

[@damian_the_mando_apprentice]

excellent video. Very informative. I need an outdoor shed so I plan to pretty much replicate what you have here. I do, however, have a few concerns. I'm in FL so we get a ton of rain daily from June to Sept. It is also almost 95 degrees for 4 months. The location I have selected will get little direct sun light but fully exposure to the rain. How will the OSB holdup in the long run? Will painting prevent rot? How about a rubberized coating? Something like LIQUID RUBBER?

Why did you use OSB instead of plywood? That was a mistake due to susceptibility to moisture. Seal it real good on the inside too!

Probably price (osb cheaper) is it possible for the paint to seal osb(waterproof and humidity proof it)? I guess the idea is something not expensive and not forever (I can deal with spending $400 and replacing it maybe after 10 years )

That’s a framing nailer or the finishing one?

[@NumberDZ]

Framing nailer.

[@truthknowledge7915]

You know you could've doubled the width and it only would've taken 3 more OSB sheets. Also it would've been nice to paint marine grade paint on the OSB to prevent rotting longer. But as long as you keep painting sealing it every 2 years with water sealant you should be fine.

[@NumberDZ]

I know but the space wouldn't allow me to make it bigger.

[@MyCabinLife]

Can you explain that to me? I'm a total newbie and would like something a little bit bigger and if it only adds three more sheets of plywood to it that would be awesome but wouldn't you still need more 2 * 4 for the framing?

[@truthknowledge7915]

​@@MyCabinLife yes you would need some additional 2x4's for framing but that would equal about 8-10 more. If you added on 4 ft to both front and back end, that would make the building 4 ft wider. You osb sheets are 4x8 ft so a sheet at both ends cover the frame on the sides. Your roof area only extends 4ft so a whole 3rd sheet on the extended part should cover that as long as you building is only 8ft long

[@usermiamiusa]

Good video, but I have a question: if the front of the shed is lower than the back, how is it possible that the boards covering the front weren't cut in height?
