Cheers Phill, it's taken me a while to get this one out there, hopefully part 3 won't take as long, I still need to watch you latest chisel review video it's on my to do list 👍
I enjoyed your video thank you for posting. Without seeming negative I'm afraid that OSB is going to rot out really quickly, virtually anything else stands up better. It will be a nightmare to replace with the walls sat on top.
@@SiApPeter many thanks glad you enjoyed it, part 3 is in the making just battling the bad weather. I'm fully committed now as the 4 walls are already in place, But I hear ya, I'm aware of the shortcomings of OSB but it is fairly common place on shed roofs and floors, I've protected the most vulnerable part of the boards, the edges and end grain with black bitumen paint, the shed I took down stood for about 18 years had a thin 11mm osb floor that was largely still intact with the exception of one area where there was a water leak.
@@grim-upnorth It seemed the sensible thing to do before I fitted the 4 walls especially the osb end grain, I also painted the osb boards and wooden base around the perimeter on the underside as well. With the weather turning and work commitments I'm struggling to get to the point of it being completely water tight, I started it in early summer I should have pulled my finger out sonner, thanks for watching and the Sub 👍
@@101projects2 For us DIYers who don't have the pressure of having to do this for income, it's really easy for the poor weather to demotivate us and cause delays to the build. Goodness knows I've had my fair share of unmotivated weekends, or weekends where I've been so absolutely physically broken by the build that I just need more than a single week break from it.
@@grim-upnorth throw in trying to film it for content because we haven't got enough going on 😅 that said I enjoy it, if I put the camera down I may well have got it finished by now.
@@101projects2 Haha, yes indeed. Especially when you have to take advantage of a break in the weather, the added prep, pieces to camera, and lets face it... the many many re-takes, just adds unwanted time to what could be just an hour's work lol
I purchased a 10' x 10' shed last year, I painted the under side of the floor two coats using i think the same bitumen paint. I also painted the lower two boards of the outside walls all round with two coats of the same bitumen paint. the rest of the shed with curinol ducksback which I think is great shed paint. It's been less than eighteen months and the bitumen paint on the lower boards is washing off with the rain. Not Impressed. Keep up the good work.
@@stephent1117 Thanks for watching, I wish I had room for a 10x10, well I have but I want some usable garden left. That's interesting, The Bitumen paint I'm using is literally like tar it's so thick it makes my hand hurt after a while when applying it with a brush can't see how it would wash off, that said the edges I painted black will be concealed and away from the elements once the walls and roof are fully in place. I did something similar I painted the underside of the osb boards approximately 8 inches or so in from the outer edges just in case any driving rain or even thawing snow makes its way into the small ventilation gap between the ground and the base of the workshop which is unlikely I think.
Good progress on the Workshop and a great video. Looking forward to part 3!

Good call on black jacking the OSB, I did the same on mine 🙂
