Making The Shed Roof (PART 5 SHED BUILD PROJECT)

In this video I make the roof for the shed, which involved making two timber frames, sheathing the roof with plywood and finally adding roof felt - although I also talk about the other roof coverings I considered which included EPDM rubber, onduline bitumen roof sheets. The roof felting process did not go well - at all! But hopefully it will be watertight and weatherproof, and that's the main thing!

Many different designs for each type of project are also included. For example, there are hundreds of designs

Looks really good mate. Its great that you point out your mistakes rather than edit them out. So many youtubers make it seem like everything goes without incident & we all know thats utter rubish.

[@elchimpo9590]

“If it works, it works” that’s the spirit ol chap!!! Don’t let a little rain and some miscalculations get you down you completed the project at hand. In the end, it’s not giving up that matters

[@o.g.bwoodwork]

Smashing job Keith. I love how open you are about your mistakes. Makes me feel so much better about my own screwups

[@liamcowley8679]

Can I just say how much better you have been at presenting to camera recently. Especially on this shed series. From someone who at one point hated talking on camera and sounding robotic its starting to sound like it's coming naturally.

I'm also a big fan of "here is my well laid out plan, here is how I cocked it up, here is how I fixed that cockup". Way more useful to watch than a pristine job! Thanks!

[@johngallahhh]

Just a suggestion, put a batton along the edge of the roofing felt. If you leave it long enough you can even tuck it under and screw the batton from underneath the roof rafter. It looks a lot better.

That was some serious bowing wasn't it Keith, it's crazy how we spend so much time getting everything square plum level and then the timber says nar don't think so mate 😂

[@uktony1525]

Is there anyone that likes putting roofing felt on sheds?. If so they must have masochistic tendencies 😁. Great video as always as it is real rather than staged.

[@harrybrooks7750]

This has been my favourite of the shed series so far. Good on you for showing us the inevitable cockups that delay even the most competent person doing an unfamiliar job. 👍

[@francoisfouche2568]

Nothing shoddy about that job Keith, well thought out and executed solutions !! It seems to be sealed well .... it will last for years !!

[@davep5829]

We all have days like that, especially when we are doing something that's out of our comfort zone.

[@kevin-the-carrot]

Always admire your honesty on your videos about making mistakes.We all do it.That is the only way to learn.Shed is looking solid.Plenty good enough for a workshop to be honest.

[@cgoodwin2875]

Lovely shed in a great spot. For future reference, when doing the drip edge you should fold about 2" underneath and nail it flat through both layers. This gives a stronger edge, both for wind shear and nail fixing. It also looks really neat. Thanks for posting.

[@PhillWyattProjects]

You can't beat the smell of freshly cut Timber when you walk inside a newly built shed 👃 looks like a nice solidly built structure. Increasing the overhang was certainly a good idea I feel 👍

[@JamesManCave]

Build is coming along well, you really "nailed it" in this video 🤔🤪

[@mrwarlock5070]

A guy I know who builds himself a lot of wooden sheds/outbuildings for different things, and he advised me to always put the thick plastic sheeting you can buy from builders merchants etc, underneath the roofing felt. I've done it now a couple of times, stapling the plastic sheet to the boards and then tacking the felt over the top, and I have never had a leak, even when high winds wrecked the felt once, the plastic saved the day.

[@neilmmaybury623]

What a lovely guy, pleasure to watch, cracked up at the grime tunes in the background 😂

[@chrisverrall6655]

I'm really enjoying this series and look forward to the next installments. I also appreciate the candid admissions of mistakes. It's comforting to know I'm not the only person who makes them and you're doing us a great service, if we learn from your errors, we'll save a load of time and money for which we owe you our gratitude whether we realise it or not. Thank you.

Not being funny but I really like your style, in terms of not being Mr Perfect, and in showing how you overcame unforeseen issues - I'm just starting out at the whole "woodworking-as-a-hobby/DIY" thing, never having done much in the way of DIY before, and I must say that having someone who also runs into trouble, but then thinks his way out of it (even if it requires some compromises) is a genuinely inspiring and encouraging thing ... so thank you :)
