  • This video I’m building a 12x16 shed. So I can finally get the rest of my stuff out of storage. I built this shed in two weeks. I took off work so I could get it to the point where it is dried in. This is a time lapse of the build. I spent $2,800. dollars so far on the shed.
    Concrete 4yds $900.00
    Dirt $200.00
    Materials $1,700.00

    As a contractor that does a lot of one person work I’d give you a couple of pieces of advice or points that have served me well for work like this: 1. Sheet good carriers can help a lot allowing you to easily carry 3/4” plywood of 5/8” drywall by yourself and along with that sheet clips which are simply folded metal that forms an H, you drop a couple on your previous sheet and simply drop your next sheet in, and they hold it while you nail/screw; and 2. Cellulose PVC for the bottom foot of your sheeting, it doesn’t rot, it’s water proof, and along with foam under your bottom plate and pressure treated lumber for the bottom plate, will ensure the structures you build will outlast you. I also like cellulose PVC for soffits and trim as you can get it in numerous colors, you never have to paint it, it doesn’t rot or leak, and there isn’t a bug around that likes making their homes in or with it.

I get value out of this book by getting ideas on what features will work for MY sheds that I design myself. It has terrific photos, all are professional in quality. Book is quality coffee-table style--shiny, thick paper and a soft cover that is also high quality. I like it.

      @Weight, Build, Dig! I bought a chunk of land on the side of our highest rainforest mountain, starting a small organic banana farm on it, and I am hours away from digging footings for my 12 x 16 "construction shed." I am building it small, and low profile with a flat roof and 8ft breakaway screened in back porch. ( hurricanes) I've never built any remote like this, and while I am up for the challenge I will be honest and admit that I am nonetheless a little intimated.

    Did a 8x12 with a concrete pad myself (biggest you can do without a permit) prices are more in Canada but if you have the ability it's easy to do yourself.
    Guys are charging $5500-6000 for the shed I built WITHOUT a concrete pad.
    I got a truck that delivers concrete by the yard and it was $550. $80 for crush and wire mesh.
    About 1600 in materials (2x4 wall, 2x8 roof rafters(flat angled roof) and LP smart panel siding) with a 5x7 steel roll up door.

      @@weightbuilddig166 at "teach construction community education" youtube channel, they mention that every manufacturer spells out a gap in between OSB panels. Usually 1/8" gap, from what I understand purpose of a gap is for when OSB panels expand and shrink under the sun or bulge if they get wet, this gap is there so that panels won't bulge from this expansion.
