I've never seen a construction video so thoroughly narrated and each step rationalized. And there's a lot of videos out there, many very good ones, but this is the gold standard. Thanks for this!
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch the video and for you kind words man. I appreciate it. Definitely a lot of time that goes into building, filming, and editing the project but feedback like yours makes it worth it. Not everything is perfect but I do my best and am constantly learning :) Cheers man!
@@DIYPETE I have to agree with Elthionel... the pacing, speed and quick but detailed attention to detail in the narration are the best I've seen on UA-cam building channels. Stellar contribution for regular folks wanting to build DIY project
Thanks for watching! Maddie and Halina are definitely loyal and fun to have around. Hope you are able to get another dog at some point down the road. Take care
Man same here. I put my red nose down 1 week ago because he had cancer. Best dog I ever owned that pitbull loved everyone and never hurt anyone he loved me and my mom the most and would follow us everywhere.
This is a nice video, well-done, and easy to follow. May I make a few comments that may be constructive, please? Not looking to be a critic here --- everyone has their preferences when building, of course: 1. The skid base is okay in many cases, but in lieu of a poured concrete base... here is what I do myself on sheds and smaller buildings.. When I build my floor I don't lay gravel, but use cinder block as footings/supports --- that initially get partially buried in the ground. I measure my area, place the blocks along the perimeter, but not many are needed. Meanwhile I build the base, much the same as you have done, Pete, but add extra horizontal base pieces ( for the screw rod ties later on ), then mark everything for eventual fastening together. As I assemble the perimeter, I mark, drill and countersink holes in the extra horizontal base/frame pieces, and, piece by piece, build the entire floor base onto the cement blocks, then re-check that everything is level and square. Then I fill the cement blocks with concrete, pass the screw bolts down through each drilled hole, I use 1/2" screw rod, run them into the wet concrete, hammer them down a little, and let everything set. A day later I come back and torque down down with washers and nuts all around. Just built an 8' x 8' shed using this method: used only 9 blocks in all and only needed to bolt down 8 times using this method. Yes, it sounds more complicated than it actually is... but it makes for a very secure base, and best of all... it can be taken apart easily if you ever want or need to move the building. Yes, it is more time-consuming, but when done correctly makes for a very solid base to build upward from. 2. I also never use nails or nail guns, except for trim. Everything else I use screws for. Why? They are easy to remove if you make a mistake, or if you need to take anything apart later on. Easy to torque down as well if you have warped or bowed lumber that needs tweaking. 3. What I also prefer is to use hex head screw bolts to attach the wall sections to each other. Easy to do with a hex head drill bit attached to any drill. I also countersink these holes as well. Much more solid that simple nailing. I also use screw bolts to attach the base of any wall section to the floor. 4. I also use OSB sheathing, but like to double up the thickness on the floor and the roof. Instead of one piece of 11/32" I will use two pieces 1/2" thick, cross-mounted together for reinforced strength. Always screwed down, not nailed. What this means is that you can easily take things apart if there is a need to make an adjustment or a correction later on... Or, take apart an entire building, then rebuild it if there is a need. Nailing does not give you that option... you would be prying all day long. Anyway... Thank you for listening. Pete I enjoyed the video, I also learned some things from you as well. I am a builder, carpenter, jack-of-all-trades, former movie-set carpenter... here... 71 years old.
This is probably the most helpful and expert level build from someone who actually sounds like they know what they're doing. This is 100x better than the million kids on youtube that are trying to figure things out for the 1st time. Thanks for sharing your talents with the world. Learning so much!
This was a great video. The build was excellent too, but the clarity in the shooting, scripting and editing was top notch. Thank you for making this Pete!
What I love is why, "To get exactly what I want". Also, life is extremely short, why not try a project like this and be proud of yourself. At worst you waste some money, which you can't take with you anyway, and at best you have something functional that you can be proud of. I am a computer programmer by trade, not much in terms of hands on skills, but I am have built my own storage sheds and now I am building a home gym / golf simulator. Don't let fear hold you down, you can do it!. This is an excellent video, well edited and clear. Nice work!
Just finished framing my shed out back (golf sim) using your video as a reference for pretty much everything. I've referred back to this video probably 25 times so far to see different aspects. Thank you for documenting everything so well, and I hope when mine is done, it looks as good as yours does!
As a PM of MEP design (knowing MEP and building codes), a woodworker, a totally DIY guy and a watcher of A LOT of youtube construction channels, I think you have made the most watchable, knowledgeable, beautifully filmed and edited (great audio too!) video I've seen. Bravo!!!!
Hey Andrew! Thanks a ton man, I appreciate it! That means a lot. A ton of work goes into the building and editing so it's great to have feedback from a project manager like yourself! Cheers
You have made the very best EVER construction video I have seen! EVER! Thank you for showing every detail on building the floors, I think, ❤ the most important part of building any structure. Well explained. I have learned lots of things I didn't know, thank you for the education.
I'm in the project planning phase of a 12x24 home office shed, and this is exactly what I needed. Great video! thanks for the clear detail of the what/where/why of your build.
The amount of time it would take to record almost every single step like this is staggering, and really difficult to do when you just want to make progress building. Impressively detailed! Thanks for sharing.
Dude... You are a serious badass DIY'ER! It's hard to tell you just how helpful your video has been for me. I'm building a series of 400 square foot cabins, so about twice the size of this and the detail you show is both amazing and pricelessly valuable to someone like me. Thank you ❤️
Hey... Yea it is pretty easy to do this if you know what you are doing. I have 35 plus years remodeling and building. LMK if you need some help, I live in Daytona Beach and I am always looking to help anyone that could use some help. I have a house in Wisconsin too, so I am always coming and going just for fun!! I have been the master interior remodeling man for years!! PEACE
Holy crap this was amazing. At first I was like "I'll just skip around since it's 50+ mins long" but I ended up watching every second. Very engaging. I'm not a construction guy at all so I think I only understood about 20% of what you referenced in the build but this really generated some ideas that I've been noodling for an outside office in my backyard. Well done sir!!
I gotta say this is one of the best tutorials I've seen. Thanks for talking us through it all. I really appreciated you explaining why you stagger seams and use tongue and groove.
@@DIYPETE ...Absolutely beautiful... the only thing I would have done different , I would have matched the electrical plates and switches to the accent wall and interior window trim... Sir your work is impeccable , near perfection ...you captivated me from start to finish...Thank You & Many Blessings , SMR
@@TheSmreeder yes this is one way of doing it, but to keep a more minimalist style, matching them to the colour they are on looks best to help them disappear better. Like on the light wall, use white, but yeah on the grey wall use grey or steel ones. (If that's what you meant, sorry!)
Agree with last comment. Well-narrated, will-put-together video. Thanks much! Love the black painted trim modification. Often I learn more from mistakes than when things go smoothly. I want to point out a few things that I learned (mistake-wise) from this video -- to round out the learning experience -- again, great video. Bottom-line up front (6 major errors, 4 cautions, 1 suggestion): 1) Especiallly with a shed this size, excavate such that you are able to have a 4" (min) base of gravel to the height you will want and compact the soil/clay with a compacter 2) Use landscape textile on the soil/clay prior to putting down gravel so that the gravel doesn't sink into wet soil over time 3) Level gravel before building on top 4) Compact gravel using a compactor 5) Level skids before building truss frame 6) Square truss frame before attaching joists & re-square after attaching joists and installing corner hardware. Caution 1: Would recommend a frame around the gravel base. This could be either ground-contact rated pressure-treated or plastic lumber (e.g. 4x4s). This avoids the gravel migrating away from the shed and causing leveling issues over time. Caution 2: Consider if you need drainage (corrugated, silt-sock-covered plastic drainage tubing and install if needed along with a dry well Caution 3: Consider whether you need a gutter system and tie into the plastic drain tubing and dry well system. Caution 4: Use clean 3/4" gravel for best drainage. Suggestion: The shed is well-insulated everywhere except for I'd make an improvement to the roof to allow for a 6" - 1" airspace for soffit and ventilation. For this I'd suggest to install a ledger board 1/2 to 1 foot below the roof decking on the insides of the roof joists, then put soffit vents and the back side of the shed under the eaves, and exit vents or the front fascia or a ridge vent on the front top shed edge. Inside I'd put either solid foam with reflective top surface (and caulk edges) or put roof decking attached to the ledger boards with reflectix on top surface of roof decking. This will allow for hot air to flow and not be trapped inside the shed and give the shed a much-more controlled air space. Caution 1. Would recommend a frame around the gravel base. This could be either ground-contact rated pressure-treated or plastic lumber (e.g. 4x4s). This avoids the gravel migrating away from the shed and causing leveling issues over time. Error 1. Excavate such that you are able to have a 4" (min) base of gravel to the height you will want. Error 2. You will not be happy when the gravel eventually compresses into mucky/wet ground. My brother's entire driveway disappeared this way. Caution 4. Put down a commercial grade Use 3/4" clean rock. Regular chips and dust is cheaper but not as good for drainage. Recommend 4" depth (min). Error3-5. Once the frame is in, fill and use a gravel compacter and make sure it is level. This will take awhile and you'll want to use the longest, straightest board you can with a level on top of it. I can't underestimate the importance of compacting and leveling the foundation. Fixing level with a shed on top is no fun.Recommend 4". Error 6. Why force all the truss screws to bend if the frame isn't square? This doesn't make sense.
An hour! Time flys when your having fun, that was fascinating, makes me want to build something, such good video work and so logically laid out suddenly construction makes sense, thankyou.
Slow and clueless is a great combination. Seriously. I built a 10x12 solar shed, studying and planning every step before I put saw to wood. I still made mistakes, but none too serious; I've decided that the real skill in building is not in the how-to, but in knowing how-to fix your mistakes. Having all the right tools before you start really helps, although no one ever had too many tools. I hope you enjoy your build!
From the point of view of someone currently sitting in a DIY built garden office, you won't regret the journey - it can be hard at times, but it's worth every step :)
Thanks so much! ha yeah I think my brain was fried after the 53 minutes of voiceover :) Will have to add that to the blooper reel! cheers man and thanks for taking the time to watch it and say hi!
I thought I was the only one that heard that, I was like wha!!!! This dude has already built a time machine and hasn't told a soul but he dropped a nice hint. Hahaha, great vid!!
I also decided on budling a lean-to style mancave and have watched so many videos regarding how to build one.. I honestly gotta say this ones my favorite. I really enjoy watching this. its well thought out and it came out great. Lord I wish I had that much property with the equipment you're able to fit out there but ill make do with my 12x14 even if I have to bring in each piece of wood one by one lol. Thanks for sharing this!
Pete, thank you so much for making these videos. I am currently working on a shed but this would make a nice office space for my wife and I. Can't wait to show you how the shed turns out. Thank you again!!!!
Excellent build! This helped fill in some of the blanks for when I build a cabin on my land. @47:01 You time-traveled to November, 2022 to buy your 1/2" plywood! 🙂
Great build, instructions and ideas! I'm an old carpenter who has not done any carpentry work in a couple of decades and am impressed. Thi is similar to what I am thinking of building for a two part L shaped tiny house, and you just helped explain it to my wife.
This is the kind of video you watch intending to learn how to build yourself, but by the end of it, you just want to hire the guy doing it so well. Awesome skills. Cheers!
I will honestly buy your books or go to your classes if you ever consider going that route. The quality of your instructions with video reference, and your explanation for each step taken transmit to me (your audience) the love and respect you have for the trade. You sir are EXTRAordinary.. A+
I am so amazed at the quality of workmanship. I want to build a backyard office and this building is my dream. Thanks for explaining all the steps so thoroughly -- it'll be very helpful when I get to building!
I just watched this and probably gonna binge a bunch of your videos. I have an old garage I've been wanting to remodel into my home office, but never felt it was big enough. Kind of debating on building a wooden "shed" now instead. Your video was so well put together that I feel like I understand what is required and what the general process would be.
That was a very informative and well edited video. I watched it mostly to see how you vented your lean-to roof, but in the end I don't believe you ever did vent it. The warming shack looks great.
This is such an amazing video. Not a step missed. Myself I couldn't be more of a DIY novice so some of the technical terms will need some googling. But to show this step by step is awsome. Thanks very much
This was one of the absolute best narrated videos i have ever seen. Your work is very professional and easy to follow. You'd make an incredible instructor.😊
As people have mentioned already, really thorough narration of an excellent build. I have watched far too many build videos for my own good in recent years - mostly UK, but some US and Canadian and this is certainly my favourite so far (apologies for the UK spellings - the proper way!). I will clearly have to spend hours and hours watching through your back catalogue of projects - keep up the good work.
Excellent video!!! I was contemplating having a garden office, having looked into the costs for the build done by a professional I half heartedly thought I could build it myself (no previous building experience) however, having seen your video, your build is exactly what i had in mind!!!! I am so motivated to give this a go!! I cannot thank you enough, the step by step explanation was brilliant. Clear, Concise, entertaining, and you left in your mistakes!!! Awesome!!! Thank you so much!!
Well now...thank you very much. Simple, easy to understand, everything is RIGHT THERE. In one video, you took all the voodoo out of carpentry. Thanx Pete, for showing me my next career.
This is a really great step by step methodical video. I was initially interested in learning some tips on making quick seat cuts on a mono pitch roof,, but you got me for the whole 53 minutes and I learned some extras. Thanks for taking the time.
Very very impressive. I would like to say I have the patience to do all of that myself, but now I'll feel better about paying someone nicely to knock that out for me. Once our pool is done I'm putting one of these in as a game room/office/extra bedroom for our updated backyard. Well done Pete
Great video! I see that there is no air barrier in the ceiling between the T&G and roof, wouldn't that be a problem for potentially getting condensation occurring in the ceiling assembly?
2nd time around. Picked up more tricks. I don’t remember seeing all the people in there the first time. That was great to see all those kids in there. Definitely something they will always remember.
I wish I could speak English as you do in my videos. Great job, great craftsmanship, great narrative, and the great person made a fantastic DIY video. I know you spent tons of hours building it and also creating the video. Thank you again and wish me good luck on my journey.
Just checked out your channel Daniel! You have great quality videos and they are very well done! Lots of time and energy goes into all of our videos as I know is the case for you :) And even if your english isn't perfect, that's okay and you could still do a voice overlay as best ya can, people will understand and it will only improve. Keep up the good work!!
Dang this video is perfect! I am thinking of maybe building a mini home/cottage which would be about 24x24 (which would hold 4 bed rooms, kitchen, toilet and living room) and I wanted that style of building (almost exactly identical to it too, which is the craziest part!) and this gave me hope that I can do it. Almost everything you did matched what I thought needed to be done, but I was unsure and you clarified it all.
@@PunkR0ckz09 Assuming that you're talking about square feet, that's 576 square feet. You'd be lucky to get one bedroom into that size structure, let alone 4.
This is the first video of yours that I've come across, but honestly this is one of the best construction videos I've ever seen. I'm future-planning a woodworking shop in my backyard with very similar dimensions, and same design, so this was great. I watched start to finish and didn't pick up my phone once. You kept all the relevant info, cut what needed to be, and made it entertaining. Bonus points for a snow pup. Much appreciated.
Fantastic. This video is very well done, and the warming shed is amazing. Thanks for sharing it and for documenting it so thoroughly. Beautiful work all around.
Great job! 👍 I wonder how it behaves over several winters. Here in Europe we put all constructions on foundation walls or pilars, as deep as the ground freezing level. Rationale is that the ground above this level moves when soaks, dries and freeze. But this increase the cost of construction considerably. So this video makes me thinking whether I should also give a try to use an inch or two of gravel instead of foundation for my shed.
No clue. But there are allot of sheds and kid playhouses just built on stone/concrete plates? Like very similar to this. The very very old wash shed (half the size of this thing) and the kids playshed rest on stones and yea they have moved enough that the kids shed needed attention ones or twice in my 25years on the farm. The roof bits are falling of it is that old! And really the foundation seems to need maintaining but I mean it worked. Not much future off the ground then this building and no gravel or anything under them. Just plain rock foundation skillfully built and wood built ontop of it. But the old wash shed seems to be doing fine but also not located on a hill. And with thin slab of concrete stacked instead of stone. The kind of slabs used to make a grill and table place outdoors. You know what I mean slabs in the ground instead of sitting in the grass or gravel. Used that to raise the wood of the ground. Was moved and put on the slabs also 25 years ago and never needing any maintaining of the foundation. But the shed is not really cared for soo.. Regular -30c and snow at places up over the head without it being from roof fall. So real winters and still not strictly necessary for a tool shed to go under the frost line or whatever it is called.
Interesting! I sat here and watched this whole video and you can imagine what you can learn just by listening and paying attention. I've been working in the U.S for about 10 years as a warehouse worker and went off of information and techniques i learned. Even though we go through certain things we still have to take it upon ourselves to do the right thing. I came up with a small business that has not been found yet (unfortunately). Im just here to tell you and every other culture giving up is not factor if you have something special that you really want to do. Keep going, it will never leave you. If you want it, if you desire to do it, it wil happen. Trust yourself, keep the faith. It's there. Dont matter! Rakeith
Stunning! I agree w/many, if not all commenters - such detail, great narration...I think this would survive a hurricane!! I love, love, love the wood paneling. You are a testament to your profession and/or DIYer.
It's hard to believe this video is nearly an hour long. It really went fast! Excellently documented and huge amounts of detail. I don't think there's anything that you could've done better if I'm honest, but the overall look of the Warming House is fantastic. Super job you got a like+sub from me! :)
Love how you explained everything in this video, and will be using a lot of your ideas for my 12x20 She Shed which looks similar to yours. Love the colors you picked out for it also and the scale of the TV fitting in. The accent wall is to die for. Thanks for sharing your work.
Why do people choose to build on a rock foundation with a wood floor instead of just doing a concrete slab? It almost seems like more work and more expensive to build. PS I didn’t have time to watch this whole vid and watching without sound.

Awesome video. Like everyone else has said, this is the best start to finish video on building a wood framed structure I have ever seen. I will definitely be coming back to this video to reference on some of my future projects. Thank you for putting in so much time and effort to help educate everyone, I know this was a ton of work for you.
This is just awesome. As a person who finished my own basement and shed, I was smiling the whole time watching this. The most satisfying part is the last part when you see happy people inside it 😀 love from Massachusetts
November 2022?! It hasn't happened yet. You are futuristic. All jokes aside. I am blown away by this build. You made it a super easy guide and it came out amazing. The tips you gave along the way saves a lot of time for beginner DIYrs. Great job!
I stumbled across this randomly while browsing and dam I'm glad I did, this is a brilliant build and so well detailed, Thanks for sharing. Subscribing and checking out the rest of your stuff.
Great video bro. I’m currently building a lean to shed similar to yours and had no idea on how to finish my shingles on the front edge. This video showed me how!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks bro. You have no idea how much this has helped. Youve earned yourself a new subscriber…
Holly Crap! Rock Solid! 3 wood layers, an awesome build! Fantastic video! Best part, it's all for the love of Hockey! For me, I'm thinking of building something similar(not as detailed) for a game room to put my Chexx Hockey and Dynamo Air Hockey in. We will see, Thank You!
The is the only video I have watched on UA-cam which is nearly an hour long where I didn’t have to speed up the playback and enjoyed to the fullest! I wish I was able to build something like this, as I need a 12 square meters space like this. Love your work!❤
honestly, this is already considered a good house in our country. the construction, and the narration, was splendid, that we can use this for future reference when making houses here in the Philippines. thank you
First time on your channel, and I wasn’t watching closely or listening, and thought wow, that looks just like Bozeman! Sure enough. I’m sure I drove near your house while adventuring from MSU while I went there.
Hey! I work with Dan from Lake Glass sometimes! Small world! Beautiful warming house! Your video was really thorough and I loved seeing all of the people using it at the end!
one of the best DIY/instructional video's I have seen. all the Very important information was shown and the self serving stuff was left out. excellent editing and informational. good Job
I stumbled on your video while planning a build almost exactly what you built here but you showed me a few things here that I for sure would not have thought of... so thankyou for posting !
I've never seen a construction video so thoroughly narrated and each step rationalized. And there's a lot of videos out there, many very good ones, but this is the gold standard. Thanks for this!
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch the video and for you kind words man. I appreciate it. Definitely a lot of time that goes into building, filming, and editing the project but feedback like yours makes it worth it. Not everything is perfect but I do my best and am constantly learning :) Cheers man!
@@DIYPETE You are a true teacher/carpenter.
@@DIYPETE I have to agree with Elthionel... the pacing, speed and quick but detailed attention to detail in the narration are the best I've seen on UA-cam building channels.
Stellar contribution for regular folks wanting to build DIY project
Agree, it was top notch. The video was excellent as well... He would pan shots, and obviously puts a lot of thought into everything.
Yes it was brilliant 👏
Couldn't help but notice how loyal and faithful your dog is. I miss my dog following me around.
Thanks for watching! Maddie and Halina are definitely loyal and fun to have around. Hope you are able to get another dog at some point down the road. Take care
Man same here. I put my red nose down 1 week ago because he had cancer. Best dog I ever owned that pitbull loved everyone and never hurt anyone he loved me and my mom the most and would follow us everywhere.
@@DIYPETE how much would you charge for a job like this? Do you have any contact information like instagram?
I’m a soon-to-be 74 year old man who just finished the video of the entire build. You are a young man with some impressive skills. Good on ya, Mate
Nice built, I liked it apart from that small TV stuck in the corner. I thought you would place at least a 50" - 55" TV on the wall!
This is a nice video, well-done, and easy to follow. May I make a few comments that may be constructive, please? Not looking to be a critic here --- everyone has their preferences when building, of course:
1. The skid base is okay in many cases, but in lieu of a poured concrete base... here is what I do myself on sheds and smaller buildings.. When I build my floor I don't lay gravel, but use cinder block as footings/supports --- that initially get partially buried in the ground. I measure my area, place the blocks along the perimeter, but not many are needed. Meanwhile I build the base, much the same as you have done, Pete, but add extra horizontal base pieces ( for the screw rod ties later on ), then mark everything for eventual fastening together. As I assemble the perimeter, I mark, drill and countersink holes in the extra horizontal base/frame pieces, and, piece by piece, build the entire floor base onto the cement blocks, then re-check that everything is level and square. Then I fill the cement blocks with concrete, pass the screw bolts down through each drilled hole, I use 1/2" screw rod, run them into the wet concrete, hammer them down a little, and let everything set. A day later I come back and torque down down with washers and nuts all around. Just built an 8' x 8' shed using this method: used only 9 blocks in all and only needed to bolt down 8 times using this method. Yes, it sounds more complicated than it actually is... but it makes for a very secure base, and best of all... it can be taken apart easily if you ever want or need to move the building. Yes, it is more time-consuming, but when done correctly makes for a very solid base to build upward from.
2. I also never use nails or nail guns, except for trim. Everything else I use screws for. Why? They are easy to remove if you make a mistake, or if you need to take anything apart later on. Easy to torque down as well if you have warped or bowed lumber that needs tweaking.
3. What I also prefer is to use hex head screw bolts to attach the wall sections to each other. Easy to do with a hex head drill bit attached to any drill. I also countersink these holes as well. Much more solid that simple nailing. I also use screw bolts to attach the base of any wall section to the floor.
4. I also use OSB sheathing, but like to double up the thickness on the floor and the roof. Instead of one piece of 11/32" I will use two pieces 1/2" thick, cross-mounted together for reinforced strength. Always screwed down, not nailed.
What this means is that you can easily take things apart if there is a need to make an adjustment or a correction later on... Or, take apart an entire building, then rebuild it if there is a need. Nailing does not give you that option... you would be prying all day long.
Anyway... Thank you for listening. Pete I enjoyed the video, I also learned some things from you as well.
I am a builder, carpenter, jack-of-all-trades, former movie-set carpenter... here... 71 years old.
This is probably the most helpful and expert level build from someone who actually sounds like they know what they're doing. This is 100x better than the million kids on youtube that are trying to figure things out for the 1st time. Thanks for sharing your talents with the world. Learning so much!
This was a great video. The build was excellent too, but the clarity in the shooting, scripting and editing was top notch. Thank you for making this Pete!
Hey thanks a ton Matt! Hope you are having a great summer and thanks for taking the time to watch the video and leave some feedback! Cheers man!
What I love is why, "To get exactly what I want". Also, life is extremely short, why not try a project like this and be proud of yourself. At worst you waste some money, which you can't take with you anyway, and at best you have something functional that you can be proud of. I am a computer programmer by trade, not much in terms of hands on skills, but I am have built my own storage sheds and now I am building a home gym / golf simulator. Don't let fear hold you down, you can do it!. This is an excellent video, well edited and clear. Nice work!
Great comment and came at the perfect time to motivate me! Cheers to you mate 👍
Well said
Just finished framing my shed out back (golf sim) using your video as a reference for pretty much everything. I've referred back to this video probably 25 times so far to see different aspects. Thank you for documenting everything so well, and I hope when mine is done, it looks as good as yours does!
thats not a shed thats a home, well done
As a PM of MEP design (knowing MEP and building codes), a woodworker, a totally DIY guy and a watcher of A LOT of youtube construction channels, I think you have made the most watchable, knowledgeable, beautifully filmed and edited (great audio too!) video I've seen. Bravo!!!!
Hey Andrew! Thanks a ton man, I appreciate it! That means a lot. A ton of work goes into the building and editing so it's great to have feedback from a project manager like yourself! Cheers
CAP
Andrew I couldn't agree more with you!!! As a DIY guy, this is one of the most complete videos on the construction of the "Warming Shed."
Seriously!
You have made the very best EVER construction video I have seen! EVER! Thank you for showing every detail on building the floors, I think, ❤ the most important part of building any structure. Well explained. I have learned lots of things I didn't know, thank you for the education.
I'm in the project planning phase of a 12x24 home office shed, and this is exactly what I needed. Great video! thanks for the clear detail of the what/where/why of your build.
This is definitely one of the best shed builds, complete and comprehensive.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
The amount of time it would take to record almost every single step like this is staggering, and really difficult to do when you just want to make progress building. Impressively detailed! Thanks for sharing.
Dude... You are a serious badass DIY'ER! It's hard to tell you just how helpful your video has been for me. I'm building a series of 400 square foot cabins, so about twice the size of this and the detail you show is both amazing and pricelessly valuable to someone like me. Thank you ❤️
Hey... Yea it is pretty easy to do this if you know what you are doing. I have 35 plus years remodeling and building. LMK if you need some help, I live in Daytona Beach and I am always looking to help anyone that could use some help. I have a house in Wisconsin too, so I am always coming and going just for fun!! I have been the master interior remodeling man for years!! PEACE
@@LocalTradesman do you come to Minneapolis. I’m interested working with you. I wanna learn and eventually build my own home
Hey David, that is exactly what I'd like to make. A 4-500 sq ft cabin in this monoroof style. You didn't make a video, did you? Cheers bro.
Holy crap this was amazing. At first I was like "I'll just skip around since it's 50+ mins long" but I ended up watching every second. Very engaging. I'm not a construction guy at all so I think I only understood about 20% of what you referenced in the build but this really generated some ideas that I've been noodling for an outside office in my backyard. Well done sir!!
I gotta say this is one of the best tutorials I've seen. Thanks for talking us through it all. I really appreciated you explaining why you stagger seams and use tongue and groove.
Hey Matte! Thanks for taking the time to check out the tutorial and to say hi. Hope all is well man!
@@DIYPETE ...Absolutely beautiful... the only thing I would have done different , I would have matched the electrical plates and switches to the accent wall and interior window trim... Sir your work is impeccable , near perfection ...you captivated me from start to finish...Thank You & Many Blessings , SMR
@@TheSmreeder Thanks and great ideas!
@@DIYPETE YOUR WELCOME AND THANK YOU
@@TheSmreeder yes this is one way of doing it, but to keep a more minimalist style, matching them to the colour they are on looks best to help them disappear better. Like on the light wall, use white, but yeah on the grey wall use grey or steel ones. (If that's what you meant, sorry!)
Agree with last comment. Well-narrated, will-put-together video. Thanks much! Love the black painted trim modification. Often I learn more from mistakes than when things go smoothly. I want to point out a few things that I learned (mistake-wise) from this video -- to round out the learning experience -- again, great video. Bottom-line up front (6 major errors, 4 cautions, 1 suggestion): 1) Especiallly with a shed this size, excavate such that you are able to have a 4" (min) base of gravel to the height you will want and compact the soil/clay with a compacter 2) Use landscape textile on the soil/clay prior to putting down gravel so that the gravel doesn't sink into wet soil over time 3) Level gravel before building on top 4) Compact gravel using a compactor 5) Level skids before building truss frame 6) Square truss frame before attaching joists & re-square after attaching joists and installing corner hardware. Caution 1: Would recommend a frame around the gravel base. This could be either ground-contact rated pressure-treated or plastic lumber (e.g. 4x4s). This avoids the gravel migrating away from the shed and causing leveling issues over time. Caution 2: Consider if you need drainage (corrugated, silt-sock-covered plastic drainage tubing and install if needed along with a dry well Caution 3: Consider whether you need a gutter system and tie into the plastic drain tubing and dry well system. Caution 4: Use clean 3/4" gravel for best drainage. Suggestion: The shed is well-insulated everywhere except for I'd make an improvement to the roof to allow for a 6" - 1" airspace for soffit and ventilation. For this I'd suggest to install a ledger board 1/2 to 1 foot below the roof decking on the insides of the roof joists, then put soffit vents and the back side of the shed under the eaves, and exit vents or the front fascia or a ridge vent on the front top shed edge. Inside I'd put either solid foam with reflective top surface (and caulk edges) or put roof decking attached to the ledger boards with reflectix on top surface of roof decking. This will allow for hot air to flow and not be trapped inside the shed and give the shed a much-more controlled air space.
Caution 1. Would recommend a frame around the gravel base. This could be either ground-contact rated pressure-treated or plastic lumber (e.g. 4x4s). This avoids the gravel migrating away from the shed and causing leveling issues over time.
Error 1. Excavate such that you are able to have a 4" (min) base of gravel to the height you will want.
Error 2. You will not be happy when the gravel eventually compresses into mucky/wet ground. My brother's entire driveway disappeared this way.
Caution 4. Put down a commercial grade Use 3/4" clean rock. Regular chips and dust is cheaper but not as good for drainage. Recommend 4" depth (min).
Error3-5. Once the frame is in, fill and use a gravel compacter and make sure it is level. This will take awhile and you'll want to use the longest, straightest board you can with a level on top of it. I can't underestimate the importance of compacting and leveling the foundation. Fixing level with a shed on top is no fun.Recommend 4".
Error 6. Why force all the truss screws to bend if the frame isn't square? This doesn't make sense.
another video to keep me motivated and inspired for when I'm finally able to build my own small music studio shed
An hour! Time flys when your having fun, that was fascinating, makes me want to build something, such good video work and so logically laid out suddenly construction makes sense, thankyou.
Thanks so much, I appreciate it! Thanks for taking the time to watch :)
This was SUPER helpful! I'm hoping to build a 20x16 workshop/studio and I'm essentially clueless. This video was incredibly informative!
Great to hear Chris! Have fun with your project!
Slow and clueless is a great combination. Seriously. I built a 10x12 solar shed, studying and planning every step before I put saw to wood. I still made mistakes, but none too serious; I've decided that the real skill in building is not in the how-to, but in knowing how-to fix your mistakes. Having all the right tools before you start really helps, although no one ever had too many tools. I hope you enjoy your build!
@@earl2688 thanks! I’ll be sure to document my progress
From the point of view of someone currently sitting in a DIY built garden office, you won't regret the journey - it can be hard at times, but it's worth every step :)
@@earl2688 Very cool Earl, and awesome you did solar!!
42:05 November of 2022 is still 5 months out. 😉
Beautiful build... thanks much for sharing! I didn't figure you built this in New Mexico. 😉
Thanks so much! ha yeah I think my brain was fried after the 53 minutes of voiceover :) Will have to add that to the blooper reel! cheers man and thanks for taking the time to watch it and say hi!
How many sheets of plywood does your Delorean carry? 😊
I was going to say, DIY PETE must be from the future lol
Glad I kept looking before I commented. Awesome build, first time viewer, loved the commentary, well performed.
I thought I was the only one that heard that, I was like wha!!!! This dude has already built a time machine and hasn't told a soul but he dropped a nice hint. Hahaha, great vid!!
You did so much hard work while creating this video🤗 ! highly impressive
Thanks!
I also decided on budling a lean-to style mancave and have watched so many videos regarding how to build one.. I honestly gotta say this ones my favorite. I really enjoy watching this. its well thought out and it came out great. Lord I wish I had that much property with the equipment you're able to fit out there but ill make do with my 12x14 even if I have to bring in each piece of wood one by one lol. Thanks for sharing this!
Pete, thank you so much for making these videos. I am currently working on a shed but this would make a nice office space for my wife and I. Can't wait to show you how the shed turns out. Thank you again!!!!
Excellent build! This helped fill in some of the blanks for when I build a cabin on my land. @47:01 You time-traveled to November, 2022 to buy your 1/2" plywood! 🙂
Yea thanks for the tip on upcoming lumber prices!
Great build, instructions and ideas! I'm an old carpenter who has not done any carpentry work in a couple of decades and am impressed. Thi is similar to what I am thinking of building for a two part L shaped tiny house, and you just helped explain it to my wife.
Excellent video your work is amazing be proud of yourself thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you so much!
This is the kind of video you watch intending to learn how to build yourself, but by the end of it, you just want to hire the guy doing it so well. Awesome skills. Cheers!
I will honestly buy your books or go to your classes if you ever consider going that route. The quality of your instructions with video reference, and your explanation for each step taken transmit to me (your audience) the love and respect you have for the trade. You sir are EXTRAordinary.. A+
I am so amazed at the quality of workmanship. I want to build a backyard office and this building is my dream. Thanks for explaining all the steps so thoroughly -- it'll be very helpful when I get to building!
I just watched this and probably gonna binge a bunch of your videos. I have an old garage I've been wanting to remodel into my home office, but never felt it was big enough. Kind of debating on building a wooden "shed" now instead. Your video was so well put together that I feel like I understand what is required and what the general process would be.
That was a very informative and well edited video. I watched it mostly to see how you vented your lean-to roof, but in the end I don't believe you ever did vent it. The warming shack looks great.
This is such an amazing video. Not a step missed.
Myself I couldn't be more of a DIY novice so some of the technical terms will need some googling.
But to show this step by step is awsome. Thanks very much
This was one of the absolute best narrated videos i have ever seen. Your work is very professional and easy to follow. You'd make an incredible instructor.😊
As people have mentioned already, really thorough narration of an excellent build. I have watched far too many build videos for my own good in recent years - mostly UK, but some US and Canadian and this is certainly my favourite so far (apologies for the UK spellings - the proper way!). I will clearly have to spend hours and hours watching through your back catalogue of projects - keep up the good work.
Excellent video!!! I was contemplating having a garden office, having looked into the costs for the build done by a professional I half heartedly thought I could build it myself (no previous building experience) however, having seen your video, your build is exactly what i had in mind!!!! I am so motivated to give this a go!!
I cannot thank you enough, the step by step explanation was brilliant. Clear, Concise, entertaining, and you left in your mistakes!!!
Awesome!!! Thank you so much!!
Well now...thank you very much. Simple, easy to understand, everything is RIGHT THERE. In one video, you took all the voodoo out of carpentry. Thanx Pete, for showing me my next career.
This is a really great step by step methodical video. I was initially interested in learning some tips on making quick seat cuts on a mono pitch roof,, but you got me for the whole 53 minutes and I learned some extras. Thanks for taking the time.
Very very impressive. I would like to say I have the patience to do all of that myself, but now I'll feel better about paying someone nicely to knock that out for me. Once our pool is done I'm putting one of these in as a game room/office/extra bedroom for our updated backyard. Well done Pete
Amen to that!
Thanks Ryan! Hope all is well and great to hear you'll be putting in something similar by the pool. That will be awesome!!
Great video! I see that there is no air barrier in the ceiling between the T&G and roof, wouldn't that be a problem for potentially getting condensation occurring in the ceiling assembly?
That was a lovely job you did, I built one a couple of years ago and only noticeable difference is I only used 18mm ply, that view is awesome
2nd time around. Picked up more tricks. I don’t remember seeing all the people in there the first time. That was great to see all those kids in there. Definitely something they will always remember.
I wish I could speak English as you do in my videos. Great job, great craftsmanship, great narrative, and the great person made a fantastic DIY video. I know you spent tons of hours building it and also creating the video. Thank you again and wish me good luck on my journey.
Just checked out your channel Daniel! You have great quality videos and they are very well done! Lots of time and energy goes into all of our videos as I know is the case for you :) And even if your english isn't perfect, that's okay and you could still do a voice overlay as best ya can, people will understand and it will only improve. Keep up the good work!!
What an incredibly inspiring project! Your attention to detail in the build and the video narrative was so satisfying to watch- thank you.
Thanks so much Stephen!
Absolute craftsman! I wish I had the ability to do this.
Dang this video is perfect! I am thinking of maybe building a mini home/cottage which would be about 24x24 (which would hold 4 bed rooms, kitchen, toilet and living room) and I wanted that style of building (almost exactly identical to it too, which is the craziest part!) and this gave me hope that I can do it. Almost everything you did matched what I thought needed to be done, but I was unsure and you clarified it all.
My bedroom is bigger than 24x24. You need to do a little more research.
@@foobarmaximus3506 What's the point of this comment? It's totally unrelated to anything I said...
@@PunkR0ckz09 Assuming that you're talking about square feet, that's 576 square feet. You'd be lucky to get one bedroom into that size structure, let alone 4.
All that work and a 49” TV. Upgrade!!!! Great video.
This is the first video of yours that I've come across, but honestly this is one of the best construction videos I've ever seen. I'm future-planning a woodworking shop in my backyard with very similar dimensions, and same design, so this was great. I watched start to finish and didn't pick up my phone once. You kept all the relevant info, cut what needed to be, and made it entertaining. Bonus points for a snow pup. Much appreciated.
Fantastic. This video is very well done, and the warming shed is amazing. Thanks for sharing it and for documenting it so thoroughly. Beautiful work all around.
Amazing build! You did a fantastic job. Crisp, clean, and solid. Love it!
Thanks Daniel!
Where did you learn how to do this and do you teach in person?
Great job! 👍
I wonder how it behaves over several winters. Here in Europe we put all constructions on foundation walls or pilars, as deep as the ground freezing level. Rationale is that the ground above this level moves when soaks, dries and freeze. But this increase the cost of construction considerably. So this video makes me thinking whether I should also give a try to use an inch or two of gravel instead of foundation for my shed.
No clue. But there are allot of sheds and kid playhouses just built on stone/concrete plates? Like very similar to this. The very very old wash shed (half the size of this thing) and the kids playshed rest on stones and yea they have moved enough that the kids shed needed attention ones or twice in my 25years on the farm. The roof bits are falling of it is that old!
And really the foundation seems to need maintaining but I mean it worked. Not much future off the ground then this building and no gravel or anything under them. Just plain rock foundation skillfully built and wood built ontop of it. But the old wash shed seems to be doing fine but also not located on a hill. And with thin slab of concrete stacked instead of stone. The kind of slabs used to make a grill and table place outdoors. You know what I mean slabs in the ground instead of sitting in the grass or gravel. Used that to raise the wood of the ground. Was moved and put on the slabs also 25 years ago and never needing any maintaining of the foundation. But the shed is not really cared for soo..
Regular -30c and snow at places up over the head without it being from roof fall. So real winters and still not strictly necessary for a tool shed to go under the frost line or whatever it is called.
As a life long general contractor I found this video EXCELLENT.
For painting the adjoining walls before installing the cedar panel accent wall, you have my utmost respect.
Thanks for watching!
fabulous video!
couple of questions
1) Why vapor barrier only for the walls and not the roof?
2) What is the chance of moisture & mold under the shed?
52:55 single unit
18:54 Type of clamps for the roof
19:21 The cut for the roof panel (secure fit)
20:24 Installing the roof
Thanks for watching

Wow, very detailed video. I've loved watching the build on IG and to finally see the full video was really nice. Thanks for sharing Pete!
Thanks so much for following along with the build and taking the time to watch the video and drop a note. Hope you had a great weekend! Cheers
Interesting! I sat here and watched this whole video and you can imagine what you can learn just by listening and paying attention. I've been working in the U.S for about 10 years as a warehouse worker and went off of information and techniques i learned. Even though we go through certain things we still have to take it upon ourselves to do the right thing. I came up with a small business that has not been found yet (unfortunately). Im just here to tell you and every other culture giving up is not factor if you have something special that you really want to do. Keep going, it will never leave you. If you want it, if you desire to do it, it wil happen. Trust yourself, keep the faith. It's there. Dont matter! Rakeith
Stunning! I agree w/many, if not all commenters - such detail, great narration...I think this would survive a hurricane!! I love, love, love the wood paneling. You are a testament to your profession and/or DIYer.
Thanks so much Donna! I appreciate your kind words. Cheers!

It's hard to believe this video is nearly an hour long. It really went fast! Excellently documented and huge amounts of detail. I don't think there's anything that you could've done better if I'm honest, but the overall look of the Warming House is fantastic. Super job you got a like+sub from me! :)
Hahaha, I didn't even realize it was hour long! I honestly thought I had watched for about 20 minutes.
I can't even cut a piece of plywood in half.
Love how you explained everything in this video, and will be using a lot of your ideas for my 12x20 She Shed which looks similar to yours. Love the colors you picked out for it also and the scale of the TV fitting in. The accent wall is to die for. Thanks for sharing your work.
The dogs thought you were building it for them. Beautiful shed, great job. Thanks for posting.
Why did I think this would be easy to do🤦♂️😂
Please try I'm buying my 80 acre property rn
@@Aconte313I’m trying and 4 days in I’m still trying to square and level my concrete blocks for my skids lol.
Why do people choose to build on a rock foundation with a wood floor instead of just doing a concrete slab? It almost seems like more work and more expensive to build. PS I didn’t have time to watch this whole vid and watching without sound.

Thank you for putting in so much time and effort to help educate everyone, I know this was a ton of work for you.
This is just awesome. As a person who finished my own basement and shed, I was smiling the whole time watching this. The most satisfying part is the last part when you see happy people inside it 😀 love from Massachusetts
At first I was like, $10k, that is expensive for a 12x20...until I watched the rest of the video. Wow, great job, looks amazing!
I can’t believe I watched this entire hour. It was so engaging, I couldn’t look away. Looks amazing
November 2022?! It hasn't happened yet. You are futuristic. All jokes aside. I am blown away by this build. You made it a super easy guide and it came out amazing. The tips you gave along the way saves a lot of time for beginner DIYrs. Great job!
First, the warming house looks awesome! I wish I had half the skill you have. Second, Go Wild!!
Excellent work and video, great voice over and detailed explanation, this is by far the best video I’ve seen for a solo diy shed build. Great work sir
