    I've built three sheds over the years. My last one was an 8x8. I got a killer deal on 60lbs of 3 3/4 inch stainless steel screws and about 10 sheets of rough faced cedar siding from a lumber yard was was closing down. I built my trusses on a 4-10 pitch and the shed turned out great. I used Vulkem calking that I got from the lumber yard, so I bought two cases. I sold the rest of the cedar siding I didn't need to a friend for a dog house he built with the plywood. Love your videos. Keep up the good work.

    As a very experienced custom home builder, I also would have applied construction adhesive between the subfloor and the floor joists, which not only eliminates any squeaking, but bonds the whole structure together, which offers much more rigidity and strength.

    Another great video Josh, the attention to detail is fantastic. The only question on this one: did you attach the joists or rim to the concrete blocks at all? I know it's just a shed, but I'd imagine it can shift with ground freezing/thawing over time, or heavy rain eroding the soil, etc.

    Incredible work, as always. How did you learn so much about building? I’m a police officer in Florida and nearing retirement. I’m very handy and can do a lot of diy. I’d really like to get into building, I just don’t know where to start. Any suggestions? Would it be impossible to carve some time out and chat? Would certainly appreciate it!

      As a 2nd profession? Many local builder groups / trade groups have apprentice schools as do some colleges. The ones that used to be community colleges. Best of luck.

      Tell me that every shed or garage Garage on UA-cam has built wrong. Why not just sheath the roof with plywod, then use metal roofing? Why do all that soffit work its a shed (he kept reminding us)?
