    Wow … this is awesome. It makes me miss my husband so much. He passed a couple of years ago, and I’m now on my own trying to remember all the things he taught me when we were doing our projects. If he were here and had watched this video, he’d be saying … “let’s do this”. You guys did a great job, I can’t wait to see more videos and see what you do on the inside. Thanks so much for sharing.

      Yeah, my thoughts exactly. If you aren’t doing a foundation, why not put it “on wheels” instead, on a trailer platform? This seems to be an odd compromise.

      @@CatsPajamas23Indeed HGTV did this to me with our foreclosure they cut out so much time from those renovations that I often felt defeated and wanted to give up. Granted I hand beveled all my shower doorway tiles myself with an old belt sander cause I did not want the added grout lines with the added two inch wide bullnose. Now 14 years later I want a bigger tile cutter for large tiles with smaller grout lines and a different type of tile. But nope..no time nor money at the moment.

    There are plenty that will criticise, but I think this looks really well done. Good attention to detail and pride in your work. Not a bad pace of work either with no nail gun for a lot of it. Your neighbour seems great. A few tips: use a sharp pencil over a sharpie; a good laser level will make everything a lot easier and quicker; perhaps leave more room between the windows and the framing next time - when the building moves and settles over time this gives more leeway without the windows being in danger of cracking.

      People like to hammer the window frames all the way in when they're not supposed to in order to allow for flex. You can leave a 1/4 inch gap for stud nails and it wouldn't compromise the integrity of the scaffolding. The nails are grooved. People just like to hammer it all the way in. Taking it apart is a PIA.

    For the window flashing, the lower corners are a common source of leaks leading to rot. There are various solutions, and one of them might have been a good idea. But your installation method is a common one too, so it's really a question of how thorough one wants to get. Extra water protection takes extra time and money, and there are so many possible things that one could do.

    • @brent...
      @brent... 11 місяців тому

      I think it’s better to angle the sill, have a back dam, and let the bottom drain to the outside. That lets any water that eventually gets in to easily drain away.

    Wow. It's so cool seeing the timelapse of the build. Great job! It's beautiful. (I was thinking that if you're not immediately going to move it, you should lift the completed floor, pour a concrete slab the size of the perimeter and let it dry, set the floor on and finish the house. It will deter dampness and bugs and other critters. (Of course you can do that after it's finished but it will be a lot heavier. It also gives you the advantage of stability without it being set in the concrete so that you can move it. ))

It definitely gives it some style. Large windows and French doors are going to give such great light. Some large skylights would have been amazing!!! Very curious how you pull this all together. Why build this? You obviously have a house so is this for guest or to sell? I would live in that and be the happiest person ever to have it! Excellent job!! Awesome neighbor you have too!!!

    Good job with the shingles but you forgot the starter strip and the shingles have to over hang the facia by a 1/2 to 3/4 inch. Without these these you risk water build up and the possiblity of those front shingles lifting or getting ripped off in heavy winds. Your most likely going to get ice build up under those first set of shingles in the winter.

    Looks like it was built to be sturdy. But, no moisture barrier before you framed the floor. No plumbing either, which makes it more of a manshed/sheshed. Other than that, well done.

I fix bikes and motorcycles in the space, its still a shed. If someone wants to live in my shed, I'll let them but its still a shed, its not magically a house all of a sudden lol. If someone tried to live in my shed, I'm gonna tell them to go find somewhere else to poop cause you aren't pooping in my home, you chose to live in a shed lol. If anything, you could call it a studio once the inside is built out, but its still a shed in my book. I think the city still would refer to it as a shed as well, so they wont tax you as an extension of the existing house.

    Great job, a lot of work! Two concerns I have is, 1. Is this in a place where the ground freezes/thaws? It looks like a cold climate. If so it’s going to heave shift and move, a lot. Needs a foundation. 2. Better create a skirt of some kind at the base, underneath is going to be prone to bees finding it a great place to build a hive. When we moved into our house our shed had 3 hives under it and it was set on a bed of stones, they likely got in through the holes in the metal studs that are used at the base
