Will that support about 875lbs (a Harley Davidson Road Glide). Desperately looking for a reasonably priced solution to house my bike, other than a good cover in the driveway. House, sitting on over half acre of property but no garage.
No. For that kind of weight, I’d do floor joists every 12” and 4x4 skids every 16”. I did this in this project and the motorcycle fits great with a ramp. ua-cam.com/video/DcdQhlf5-qA/v-deo.htmlsi=MHoKf-dFOh3C3R1a
@@projecthammer8134 Awesome. Thank you!
The radiant barrier needs an air gap
Thanks for the feedback
To bad the manufacturer didn't hang the foamboard on the outside of the studs under the sheathing ......oops....
🤔
I have definitely noticed the extra power and lighter weight from this battery. Very nice upgrade to the lineup. 💪🏼
About how much do the materials run for a project like this?
@@Jaylaco77 you’re probably looking at $1,200 - $1,600 currently from big box store
Probably my favorite feature to this project is the tongue and groove wood ceiling. Check it out!
What type of texture was that at the end
@@WavyEntertainment95 it’s a stamped knockdown texture.
We have a 16x36 portable building and need now to insulate the floor. Can this be used underneath the buildings floor? Sure looks like more fun than pink insulation!
@@jereshaw777 You can. A couple things to think about. Moisture from the ground and ensuring the insulation doesn’t fall down the floor joints. You may want to place a treat plywood layer below the insulation as well as a moisture barrier (plastic). And go as thick as you can with the foam boards.
Great work. Did you paint the OSB or buy it that way?
@@maxmackinlay618 thank you! I painted it.
I would add a radiant barrier layer to the inside of the roof. Reflectix.
Thanks for the feedback
That osb will be left in the air and weather like rain and snow?
@@swolyjr No. A shed was built on top of it. Check my videos for that full project video.
I have used this on trim, tongue and groove wood ceiling, MDF, and a hardwood door threshold. Varying thickness from 1/2” to 1”. And it’s awesome! Plus it sounds cool 🤙🏼
Can the same insulation be used for a garage?
@@samuelknight886 they can but the R-value is pretty low for larger spaces. It depends on how much insulation power you’d like.
I have this inside my wooden shed, and they work pretty great. In the summertime it doesn’t get too hot on the inside. If however, I happen to be inside of the shed on a hot day, because of my body heat it traps that heat in. So essentially this keeps any heat that is coming from the inside of the shed and retains it. It’s a pretty cool product. With no one inside of the shed, it keeps it pretty cool. I definitely wouldn’t go inside my shed, though in the summertime even with this insulation up. It’ll get hot fast.
Love hearing your experiences with it.
Drywall can be intimidating but it’s an inexpensive way to upgrade a shed, garage, or shop. Just get started and you’ll get the hang of it.
How much of a difference has that made?
@@morganpowell2999 the customer is using a window ac unit and small space heater and says is working well. 100 degree days and sub 30 degree days.
I really appreciate the clear step by step process! I want to build one very similar, but in panels so that I can dismantle and move as needed. Would you suggest using lag bolts to attach the panel sections for that method?
@@alison1jane Thank you! Yes. I would use lag bolts with a little bit of blue Loctite so they are semi permanent and won’t wiggle loose. You will need some torque to remove but should do the trick. Don’t use red Loctite. Maybe orange, but I’d stick with blue.
Awesome! Great tool to use!
@@jessicafetuao1399 Thanks! It was super easy to use.
This is on my Christmas list! 🤩🤩🤩
@@CharleneLundell Thank you! Happy Holidays!
LOVE this- I love the easy setup- super helpful when trying to figure out what sprayer to use for each job.
I agree! And the setup is so quick.
The most important step is the prep work and arguably what takes the longest as well. Looking forward to part two. 👍
You are 💯 correct. I didn’t capture footage of placing the cement footings in this project but I have some on others. 👍🏻
Not preparing the floor? Let's see how long this shed last.
@@misticbear475 Thanks for the feedback and good call out. I added cement blocks which is typical for sheds. Just not shown here.
Clean work 👌
@@Handymandeportado thank you!
Insulation is facing the wrong way. Should have the backing facing toward the exterior.
Per manufacturer guidelines for this application and climate, the facing is towards the inside of the structure. It can be installed with friction, face stapled, or inset stapled.
По российским снипам , если не ошибаюсь, скрытая проводка в деревянных домах запрещается . А если необходимо на сквозь в конструции провести, то выполняется через металлическую гильзу.
Thanks for the feedback. This is appropriate for this application.
So how is that heatpump supposed to work in there?
I don’t know about pool equipment. The structure was built to customer specs.
Don't caulk like that. The lines will prevent water from properly moving around to dry out. Do phat coins of caulk instead.
@@heyzeuss thanks for the feedback
Shouldn't need (just a waste of time and $ to glue/caulk if pieces cut for snug fit
Thanks for the feedback.
Isn’t this installed backwards?
Thanks for the feedback. See previous comments.
In case you did go for the air gap, how would one go about ensuring the board was not pushed all the way in?
That’s a great question. I’m not sure exactly. Maybe check with the manufacturers. If I were to do that, I’d probably opt for foil tape to ensure each board is where I want it. It is pretty pricey but works great.
@@projecthammer8134if you're wanting to keep sunshine heat out, then shiny side out
Would have to put some furring strips of wood on the existing sheathing first. Probably should glue the furring strips or use screws short enough to not get through the sheathing. Depending on your climate you should study would this cause moisture to get trapped in between the two panels regardless of which way you're doing it.
Dude!!! That crazy music screwed up your video!! Can’t watch it till the end!!👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Thanks for the feedback.
There’s this cool thing you have on your phone called volume buttons if you click and hold the bottom one down it mutes the sound dumbass
I find the volume control is always useful. Try that
The R Value is not high. Not sure where you are but here in Arizona not a good choice
Agreed! I used to live in south Phoenix. It’s working great in Utah.
Ain’t no way he called this a lawn tractor😭
That’s what they’re called. 👍🏻
100% true though
Nice work Code!! You're amazing!! Grams 😘
Thank you!
What’s the height? I like the way the roof was lifted up instead of built in place.
Thank you! The back wall was 8ft tall.
Does it matter what’s side you place outward? R-TECH or silver?
It is common practice to have the silver side facing inwards. However, the manufacturer only states that it may help. I chose the silver side out to help as a moisture barrier.
@@projecthammer8134 there's evidence that radiant heat barriers work, but they need to have an air gap. Because if you press the radiant heat barrier against another surface, you get convective heat transfer and the radiant part becomes ineffective.
Isn’t foam board very combustible? I read that you have to paint it with a 15 minute thermal barrier.
Most insulation is not flame resistant unless specified.
Plan on having a fire?…
Have you ever heard the saying; “Plan for the worst, Hope for the best!”
@@projecthammer8134 Fiberglass is very flame resistant. The kraft paper will burn, but not the fiberglass itself. The foam board will go up like a flame thrower if combusted.
Thanks for the info
You don't have to sand the outer panels before painting?
Nope! The panels I use are already primed for paint.
@projecthammer8134 Nice. What if I was to paint an older shed, in good shape? Like if I were hired to paint one for someone. Thinking about offering this service in my area.
Most exterior siding material would not require sanding. It would need to be cleaned with a pressure washer, caulked, primed, then painted. Always look for loose material and make necessary repairs.
@projecthammer8134 Thank you. I appreciate the info.
Can you break this down for me? Did you use the foam board instead of the pink for mold reason being outside, or simply because foam board works better than the pink? Also can you please reference this to a house application with sheet rock
I use foam board insulation for sheds due to ease of installation and reduced costs compared to standard batt insulation or “pink” insulation. For a home application, this is not sufficient. For small accessory buildings, it works great.
@@projecthammer8134 wanting an affordable shed option for a home office. what if I were to use this and put up the drywall and use a space heater or a window unit. Would it do anything when it comes to temp control or will I freeze to death in Michigan winters?
For Michigan winters, go with a 1.5” or 2” foam board then you should be good in a small space. Having said that, 2” foam board isn’t much of a cost difference than fiberglass insulation. If you’re looking to maximize your insulation rating for the money, I’d stick with fiberglass if it is compared to the thickest foam board.
🤔 .... I have an unfinished "storage shed" attached to my house's garage. I wanna turn it into a study room (nothing fancy). I just installed R13 batt, in-between the studs, then overlayed with 1/2" foam board insulation like what u have here. It's now R16. Am I doing it wrong? I don't plan to drywall it at all
@@vroor32 you can definitely do that. The r13 was probably enough insulation but adding the foam board in lieu of drywall or paneling will just increase the effectiveness. Obviously, it is not as durable on the surface since it is foam but it sounds like that’s not what you were concerned about. That should be a well-insulated space.
Put my pool equipment under ground, to keep it out of the weather. Concrete floor, and cinder clock walls. Makes a nice bomb shelter
Nice! If it isn’t overbuilt, it’s under built 👍🏻
You're not going to seat that thing on concrete, of feet?
Thanks for the feedback. Shed footings vary based on the terrain, shed size, location, and customer preference. In this case, the shed is only 5x8. The middle and back were raised using cement blocks. The area is sloped with great drainage. 👍🏻
What kind of adhesive do I use to adhere it it the ceiling?
I used Loctite PL 300 Foamboard adhesive. It worked great!
@@projecthammer8134 thank you.
Thank you for the video! It definitely helped me calculate how much time i will take on a project like this
Absolutely! Good luck with your project.
The wooded column creates a concentrated load and could punch the floor cladding. I suggest installing a base platform below the wooden column to avoid column punching.
Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll keep that in mind for future projects.
that was so quick and efficient! it's taking me two days to just finish the flooring LOL
@@downtotheheartofit Thank you! I’ve been lucky to have tested many different designs and built a TON of them. You got this!
Nice 🎉
Thank you 👍🏻
Cody.. thank you again for an amazing build job! We love the shed and completely recommend your work to others!! Kudos!!
Thank you! Enjoy!
I bought myself a small 4 x 8 wooden shed recently. It’s a lean to Shed. I’m going to use the same brand, Rtech and it’ll have an r value of R.5.78. Right now during the daytime in the summertime it gets super hot inside my shed. I hope that adding all these on the walls and the ceiling will make a dramatic difference during the middle of the day. Also, what about winter time? I live in Northern California so it gets kind of chilly but it doesn’t ever get freezing cold. I assume in the winter time, it will be comfortable inside the shed?
Thanks for reaching out. It is tough to say how effective the insulation will be on its own. I doubt it will help much without a heater or a/c unit. Insulation is meant to help maintain a controlled temperature rather than regulate it. Also, sheds are not usually “air tight”. If I were to convert a shed to be a temperature controlled space, I would insulate, spray foam all gaps, and install an exterior door.
Nice Job Buddy 🤙
Thank you!
Very nice solo DIY shed!
Thank you!
