If you want to build a shed, you'll want to design it first in SketchUp. This tutorial will shows you how to use SketchUp to design a good shed using basic construction principles, which you can then modify to suit your needs. I am using SketchUp for Schools, but this tutorial will work with any version of SketchUp.
In this video I finish the framing by adding a shed roof from a riser wall, with 2x6 rafters on 24" centers. We cover how to use the 'Rotated Rectangle' tool and the 'Trim' tool in SketchUp.

I hope you get around to posting the rest of this series! I've learned a lot just by following along and have already started planning my shed. Thanks for posting these!
Thank you! I got sidetracked with my day job, but this is very encouraging for me to get back to it.
I second this!
This series has been a delight to follow along with, thank you! Oh, and I have to say that I envy your ability to describe the design process and the details so clearly and succinctly - what a great gift to have. Cheers!
Would love to see this continued also! Great series!
Great series! I'm planning on a build very similar to this, so would love to see the final parts completed. 🙂 @@MrLower
Loved this series. Planning on building a golf simulator, and coming from a software engineering background with little to no hands-on experience this has helped me envision what I need to do immensely. Thank you!
I'm glad I could be helpful. Good luck on your build!
I thoroughly enjoyed these series of videos with SketchUp. Thank you!
Thanks for this awesome tutorial! I'd agree with others that the rest of the series would be great, but no pressure, life stuffs are important too!
Great tutorial. Are you ever going to do a tutorial on finishing with siding and insulation?
This series has been super helpful!
Thanks for the great video. I am modeling a portable sauna I plan on building using your videos. Are you going to post a fourth video?
Great video ... I have learned a lot that I did not already know! Question: at 19:20 you are cutting vertical ends on the rafters ... I do exactly what you've done and when I try to push/pull I get the 'ole circle with the slash 🚫 ... thoughts? Just tried an experiment ... created another rafter and was able to cut the end with the push/pull but only before making it a component. That's my workaround but just curious why it worked for you as a component ... unless its something new over the past two years to the free version.
Just off the top of my head, it sounds like you might be trying to push/pull a component. You can't edit components directly - if you want to get in to edit them, you have to double-click (or mac equiv), which will "open up" the component for editing. It puts a big wireframe box around the object and darkens everything else. When you're at a level where the push/pull tool hovering over a side causes it to shade, then you're at the correct level to edit. If I misunderstood your situation please let me know.
Rafter we’re after !😮
Hi Mr. Lower! We are making great progress but have gotten stuck at the step of cutting out the birds mouth, also the cutting off the edge of the rafter to make it perpendicular to the ground. We use the pen tool to draw a line, but then can’t seem to highlight the small triangle or use the push-pull tool to cut it out. Any tips for us?
Actually never mind, we figured it out🎉😊
@@gailsovick Glad to hear it. What was the trick to get it working?
I third this!
Hello
Is there a way to print a list of materials based on the sketch Using the free version ?
I heard once upon a time there were some plugins for the paid version that could generate a parts list based on your components, but I haven't looked into it. I tend to do it the old fashioned way - counting parts and putting them into a spreadsheet. Sorry I can't be more helpful
@@MrLower thank you
Nice video series! Why is the riser added? Couldn't the rafters just span two walls of different heights?
It definitely could. I would probably do it by shortening 3 walls so I could at least get a double top plate on most of them, and add blocks to the top of the two side walls. The only thing I might be concerned with is no top plate locking the taller front wall to the rest of the shed, but I'm not a construction engineer so perhaps there's an obvious solution that I'm just not aware of.
