This looks amazing. Me and my partner just got our first home and are looking to do something like this! Great job buddy!

[@dadsworkshop]

Thanks 🤗

Hi buddy, this looks absolutely amazing, love this build you done amazing job, im planing to do something like this but wondering if you would need planning permission for exactly same build as yours ? Thanks again and keep up the good work!

[@dadsworkshop]

Not in my area , it's smaller and lower than permissions . Check in your area but mostly it's the same . Just Google it to be sure ,

Jim, I'm thinking about converting my carport into another bedroom or moving my shop there and giving my shop to my kids as a cottage. the carport is the same size as my shop 12x20. just cruising your build vids again for inspiration.

[@dadsworkshop]

Replace the work giving with renting and we're on the same wavelength ......

[@Uwannawatch]

@@dadsworkshopTrust me no free rides around here. they'll be paying for the materials and providing labor. Just trying to figure out which way will add more value to my house. I think extra bedroom.

[@jamesb486]

was waiting to see you put the windows into the frame and you skipped it. RIP

[@dadsworkshop]

Didn't think that need showing , simply done plastic 3mm spacers underneath , screws in the sides, not too tight font bend the frames , and foam / silicon around .

Hi Jim, looking to do something like this without digging foundations. Can i ask if you layed one layer of brick straight onto existing slabs ?

[@dadsworkshop]

Hi , my slabs are heavy duty weigh 75lbs each , under the slabs is 8 ton of concrete .... Ask me how I know 😂

[@zCLxTcH]

@@dadsworkshop so are they not the standard weight council slabs ? Just curious

[@dadsworkshop]

@@zCLxTcH no idea what a council slab weighs , I'd guess that was actually more than these from broken council ones I've seen on the past, but you still would need a lotta concrete under neath them .

[@ArmandoLoni]

Coming along nicely, Jim!! What type of glue did you say you used?

[@dadsworkshop]

Thrixopfropic, polyeurophane foaming resin based quick dry glue 😂 used to use it on wood boat builds, re ally is stronger than the wood itself

[@literaeeze6487]

I am using what you have done as my blue print. Any chance you could let this novice know exactly how much wood you ordered, I would be grateful

[@toolrestoration]

I believe I used 100 m of construction grade . At the time it was around 500 GBP .

[@dominiclong2364]

Hi! I am considering doing something very similar. Did you do this via plans you had drawn up or just from previous knowledge?

[@dadsworkshop]

I drew quick plans for openings in the framework as they had to be exact as window/door openings important .but other than that was do as you go .
