Super helpful. Thanks!
Thank you
How much for all the materials?
Awesome job! Hope you’re recovering well from ankle surgery 🙏🏼
Wow 😊 man you are handy 🙌🏻
🤦🏼♀️ man….. I had everything worked out in my head and was starting my project tomorrow. Now I accidentally find your video and it’s back to the drawing board because I want fancier now 😅 Great video 👍🏻
Jesse this video was a big help! Thank you!
Awesome video! I'm wondering how increasing the 2x4s to 2x6s or 2x8s would increase strength if they were run in the same configuration? Wouldn't they just end up adding more height if laid narrow side down in this case like these 2x4s are?
I like this video the best so far. I dont recall anyone else talking about rinsing your tools and the forms off periodically. It's really helpful!
How much did everything cost supply wise start to finish? I'm trying to decide whether to buy a shed or build a shed...
Watching you 😉😉 from Cape Town ( SOUTH AFRICA)
Thanks for your vid! This gave me everything I was looking for today as I start planning to build my outdoor table!
Great vid Jesse, I watched hundreds of videos on this subject and I think yours is the best. I am looking for a similar color to what you achieved so I was wondering if you could share how much of the white pigment you added per bag and how much more water it required to offset the pigment. Thanks again for an awesome vid!
You got me building instead of buying. Thanks for the great, simple videos man!
Great stuff mate! Enjoyed how you showed the little tips, on edging the concrete and brushing the finished slab. 😊
Thanks! I'm glad I could help
So glad you explained the different products/steps in rust and painting. You can also use a piece of wood the same size as your slates and put a hole at the end and use it for a templet. Just hold it flush on the end and sides and hit the bolt with hammer. Leaves a nice indentation for drilling out. My only concern is countersinking the bolt heads. Wouldn't that hold water? Awesome vid!
I'm glad you found it useful. You absolutely could do that. I'm not worried about it with Cedar, it won't rot
I'm confused. In this video, you used 3/4" OSB plywood for the floor. I'm assuming that's nominal, and actual would be 23/32". But in part 2, you computed the overhang on your sheeting as 4 1/8". That's 3 1/2" for the floor joists plus 5/8" (20/32") for the floor. What am I missing?
It's listed on the shelf as 3/4" tongue and groove OSB, they don't break it down to /32" measurements on the shelf. When it came to the overhang, I left myself a little wiggle room is all, it also keeps the OSB further from the ground is all. You could take it right down to the bottom of the floor joist if you want. Most people won't be so exact when building it themselves, and in rough framing you can be up to 1/4" out without things getting away from you, not that you want to be but that's the max rule of thumb
@@JessedoesDIY I get it... I'm using these awesome videos to design my own shed. My CAD app kept telling me I was crazy 'cuz the math wasn't working :)
What length of pocket hole screws did you use?
Whatever your pocket jig says for 3/4" and 1/2" material, they are different
great tips for installation here.
Thanks 👍
thank you for this! i learned so much!!! 👏🏾
Anytime. Glad it was helpful!
You miss talking about warped floors. That's too bad.
Most of the time you press the boards down like I showed to follow the floor if it isn't too bad, but if it's bad you may want to do the subfloor first
how long does a job like this typically take? Could a handyman do it in a day or less?
For one door the basic install shouldn't take but an hour to remove and replace, them the trim can take an hour, after that it's just waiting for spackle, caulk, and paint to dry. Day is easy depending on your skill level.
Oh well!! All of that builder terminology! You said anyone can do it but you lost me within the first 5 minutes. God I hope I can get my son to do it for me. 😩
I mean I tried to make it literally as easy as I could, but there will always be a level of skill needed. If nothing else, at least you know the procedures if he can do it for you or if you have to pay somebody, you know what you're paying for. Learning is still learning if all you learned was you didn't want to do it lol Hope he can build it for you
I actually LOLed you just ripped the floor freehand with a circular saw. What did I just see??!! I could never do that. Impressive!
Yeah, lots of time spent building houses, you use the tools you have around and they aren't always the best tools for the job, but you make do.
Very detailed instructions. Very much appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!
What's the size top broads ? Did you say 5x6
5/4 x 6. They are true 1" thick deck boards, but not everybody has them so a 2x6 will work.
Thanks for putting these videos together. Question: is venting needed? Don't think I saw you adding vents.
No problem, glad you liked them. It may be depending on what you're going to store in it but it is very easy to cut it out of the soffit and add a vent front and rear
Thanks man! From Switzerland
No problem!
Can't wait to do our own for our backyard! We're considering pouring a bunch of 12 x 36" pavers. Should we add rebar or wire mesh for strength?
Nice! Depends what you'll use them for. These were light duty, but you may want rebar or the diamond wire mesh, whatever you have access to, it wouldn't hurt! Good luck on yours!
Great job. Now I need to do that!
Thanks. It's definitely a lot of work but it is so nice when done. Good luck on yours!
Did you use pressure treated plywood also.
What you see is what I used, OSB
Do you NEED to add the rocks?
Rocks or concrete will help preserve the wood so it isn't right against the dirt as well as help prevent settling
Thank you again for this video . One question : Do we removed the under padding from the planks before installing ? Your advice will be much appreciated
Anytime. If it has underlayment, you'd want to remove as much as possible
Love the added sense of humor, who can't use a good laugh ;) 👍
PS Great job on those chairs, they look AWESOME!
Absolutely, I'm trying to lighten up and have fun with it. Thanks, I'm glad you like them, I'm pretty happy with how they turned out!
Jesse I just found you today and the second video I watched was your Jan video, I can't begin to tell you how happy I am to see things are improving. I look forward to future videos whenever that fits into your schedule but looking more forward to seeing you being your best you! 🇺🇸
That's quite the second video to watch...But thanks, I appreciate it! More videos will start rolling out here soon, I've got 4 filmed and working on another, just need to edit them. Welcome to the crew!
I don't mean to be "that guy" but are you sure that's 1/2" plywood. Looks like 3/4". But if it is, do you find it's enough thickness? I've read 1/2" can have a bit of a bounce to it when you throw the bag
It's 100% 1/2". With the center braces I added there is no bounce at all, it's solid. I was worried about the same thing that's why I made the bag holder also support the top from below.
We hired it done and I don’t think it was top coated. They had us spray with furniture polish to stop the product from coming off. It seemed to work but doesn’t look as good now.
GOD BLESS BRAVO.
Thank you
Please tell me how many pounds of concrete mix you used for this project ?
5, 60 pound bags
This is pretty close to what I do especially with outside corners. Gluing and taping the joint really makes a clean corner. If you want to speed up your install and reduce finish work rather than running nails and having to fill them, I use liquid nails (or other construction adhesive) in a wave pattern on the back of the baseboard/trim/casing. This speeds up install immensely and with. I nail holes all you have to do is chalk and paint. This is especially helpful on trim elements that have an intricate design.
I'm not a fan of liquid nails unless I'm on a concrete wall and can't nail. I'd rather nail any day, if you've ever removed baseboard that was put on with liquid nails, that's why I don't like it. Too much repair to do. But that's just me and my preference, lots of people like that method, this is just what I like
Very nice log-store shed😍
Thanks 👍
Awww the doggie helped you and he’s the best part of the video
haha he is always around watching!
basically...too much water...you should see the asian looking girl doing this ..all by her lonesome
That looks great.
Thanks!
Not started yet but in the process of getting all my materials
Awesome, good luck! Let me know how it goes
Bravo, Jesse! Thank you so much. I'm gonna do it!
Thanks. Good luck on yours!
You don't have to vibrate it or shake it or stir it in the form in any manner to make sure there are no air bubbles and that it settles as flat as possible?
Ideally, tap the side walls with a hammer lightly. That's about it
Very nice all around. D0 you have plans to link to?
Thanks. In the description, I can't add links here. Or go to Etsy and search my channel name
