Welcome to part 3 of our shed build showing the wall framing. We decided not to sheath the walls before standing them, as we had originally intended. We had a few reasons for making this choice:
– make them lighter and easier to lift
– prevent high winds from pushing too hard before everything is situated and connected
– get us to the roof build faster, which will provide some rain protection
We also chose to replace the “standard” door from our design with bigger double doors that we will make ourselves. This bigger opening will replace our door opening and one window opening from our design.
This will be a 12’x24′ wooden shed with a single slope metal roof and LP SmartSide siding.
I’ll try to summarize some of the construction stats/key points here:
FLOOR:
– 12′ x 24′
– 4′ x 4′ treated skid foundation
– 2″ x 8″ joists @ 16″ OC
– 3/4″ plywood subfloor
WALLS:
– 2″ x 4″ construction with double top plates
– (4) 3′ x 2′ sliding windows
– 36″ x 80″ metal prehung door
– 1/2″ OSB sheathing
– House wrap
– LP SmartSide paneling
ROOF:
– 16′ x 27′
– 1.5-in-12 pitch (minimum recommended by metal roof mfr), single slope
– 2″ x 8″ rafters @ 24″ OC
– 1/2″ plywood sheathing, with sheathing clips
– Synthectic roofing paper
– 29 gauge galvalume metal roofing panels (3′ x 16′ each)

Hello Bryan, that is great how you explain what you are doing. this is coming along so good. Amazing how the walls are built and then lifted. Love seeing this. thanks. π NonnaGrace
Canβt wait to see it finished!
Did a great job on the shed build. BTW, I had seen you on "The Handee Man's" channel and you were mentioned on Bill's channel "The Upside of Down Sizing" ……so, here I am.
A man with a plan and it's coming together beautifully! Keep the great videos comingπ
What you need, as I see you sweating is 1: a white shirt (to absorb less heat) and 2: an outdoor shower to hose off π
It's looking awesome and great video!! You are a good teacher Brian, I liked how you explained everything. ππ
Great wall build. So nice to see a DIY homesteader building a decent shed instead of hauling another toxic, rusting steel shipping container out into the desert!
looks great keep on it.
Brian! that is beautiful. Love the way it's coming together. It's obvious when someone is doing it right.
Your part 1 ended with a bonus dance floor scene. A little disappointed no bonus this time.
The clouds building up in the background on day 1 was cool
That looks great! How hot was it? I kept thinking you were gonna get a sunburn LOL.
Great video…appreciate the thorough explanation as you go. Looking forward to future episodes.
Very nice my friend! Great work! Tom from Mesa
Taylor and Melissa, hey?π€ What are we chopped liver!?π€£π
Just kidding! The shed is looking mighty Brian. Can't wait to see the finished product!ππ
Are you going to make a DIY shed double door video? That video had a lot of views for us.ππ
The Build Is Looking good ! Great job !
Pam doesn't like the sound of the nailgun.
Looking good! I think it's gonna work out great!!!
