I appreciate his showing his simple mistakes and just some minor mind lapses. Like how he put the first wall support board on incorrectly twice. We all do stuff like that even if you know what you’re doing.
100%!! Learned so much over the last few years! Gave me the confidence to attempt a full floor EVP replacement... Jeff is as legit as they come, and a great teacher on top!
I love the fact the he doesn't just show you the "how" to do it, but gives you the "why". which makes a GREAT teacher/trainer. Is there anything better than having the opportunity to work with your own son, I would love it.
i love how he goes back and explains where he miscalculated, some people would just say the had to change it and cut the video. He actually teaches us the know hows...
He should use a shorter bit at times. He tends to angle the screws cause his impact has a 8 inch bit when a 2 inch would allow him to pick the angle of every screw. Great build eather way. Screws have problems in shear (depending on the gauge) but nails just pull out at the first sign of tension on the head. Nails are like little boys. I wouldn't trust them under tension from the head. Lol 😂
Thank you !! My husband was always the lead on our builds and me the labor/cut man. I'm attempting to build a mower shed without him 😢 Your video is exactly what I needed to be able to take the lead and pass on some of the skills my husband taught me before he passed. Your build video was the perfect refresher and reminder of just how much I have learned over the past 40 yrs. Skills I promise to pass on to my children. Please keep posting
Cherish these times with your dad Matt. I'm 58 now and wish my dad was still around to work with and continue learning from him. Nice video guys, thank you.
Being a retired contractor and done a lot of my jobs by myself . So when you assemble the first section cut the top and bottom plate back 3/4 of an inch so the 1/2 of the stud sticks out past the sheathing edge 3'4 of an inch . The next section skip that first stud and put all the others in . When you stand it just work in in place and slid the second section of wall over to meet the first wall . Your sub wall sheathing will touch and meet in the center of the stud in the first wall . Now nail the sheathing from the first and second wall to that single stud because they will be in the center of that stud . There you have saved the cost and extra work of using that second stud you don't need . I hope this helps it's one of the little tricks I came up with after I quit using a crew in the last few years and did all my work alone accept for contractors on utilities , plumbing, electrical ect.
Another awesome video. You don't know how nice it is to see you work with your son, as I never had a good relationship with my own dad so it's nice to see someone doing it right!
I love your content. You don't edit out your mistakes. You show the world how it really is. You are a skilled carpenter. Keep it up. Thanks for the content
I've been watching your channel for years now. And although I live in the UK and things are a bit different in here I actually managed to renovate my entire house by learning from your videos. Thank you so much.
I'm building a racing pigeon loft of my own and this series is really helpful. It's the first actual building project of my own and so far I gotta say I like working with wood a lot more than brick.
Your other shed you did I built one at my other place that was 10x10 referring to it and did all of it myself onto a concrete pad a couple years ago. The neighbors were impressed with me doing it all solo and the build quality and even being mindful to create a " doggy door" on the side for the lawn mower to maximize space which I think I got the idea from you.
My favorite source for DIY/building tutorials! Another trick I've seen for taking the twist out of a stud is to shoot one nail, then zip a screw a little ways into the wide face of the stud, use the claw of a hammer on the screw to lever the stud straight, and hold the tension there while you shoot the second nail. You can get it perfect and zip the screw back out afterwards to reuse.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I wasn’t being that serious. I appreciate when y’all work together, reminds me of when I built my house with pops. Some competitiveness and I’m sure annoyances working with someone you know so well. But overall a ton of respect and positive building experience. Cheers and thank you for all your help over the years!
Thank you for the shed videos. I have begun my own project to build a shed using your videos as a guide. Been very helpful. Shed is 10 x 16. Cheers from Whitby Ontario.
Jeff, thank you for all your instructional videos. Because of your input and knowledge I took the leap and am building a 12x14 modern shed on my property. You gave great advice, but also make it seem ok if you make a mistake as you can correct them. Thank you!
Keeping "mistakes" in the video is actually more helpful than anything. It keeps everything real but most importantly, these mistakes will probably be something that we may encounter or make. Keep up the good work!
first an foremost thanks you . secondly be glad you have a pateince father and seems to be a good man, also you are teaching us all and we need more good men such as yourself in the communties truly. these skills are very much sought after and will be needed to rebulid america. this channel will go very far im in columbia sc and i wish i could learn more but this great so far god bless you
Thank you for sharing your expertise and it's always great to see a father / son team working on a project, awesome job Dad. Great idea for breaking up the 16' walls into manageable sections someone can handle on their own. Correct me if I'm wrong, but for the front wall with door and windows, it appears the original measurement was off (184" vs 192"), making the door four inches left of center. I.e. wall section left of the door was 70" and wall section right of the door was 78". Hope you and your son continue to build, learn and grow together through every project. Blessings!!
Great job... I have an idea for over building of you are trying to upgrade a little. . It sounds like you're putting in a manufactured door. But they don't tend to be large enough to allow lawnmowers or snow blowers in them. And if they are, they tend to be expensive. One of the most abused parts of the shed is the door. If it is a utility shed for yard equipment, you will need to build the door to fit lawnmowers and other items in. And these doors tend to be heavy. I've done duel ~ 2' doors making a 4' total. This will make them wide enough for a lawnmower or snowblower into the shed or you could just open one side for a person to go in . IN this case I've used 4x4 pressure treated for the jack studs around the door. It is PR so if rain gets driven in it will be ok. And I use a 4x4 because I used gate type hinges with lag screws. The meat of a 4x4 is thick enough to handle the 3.5" lag screws. This will more than handle the weight of the door and any abuse it gets from being bumped by yard equipment.
Love love love your channel. Just found you recently as want to replace my shed and build a deck for it to sit on. I am amazed and confused at the same time why here in the UK we have so little choice on materials and don’t have access to some of the ones that you’ve used. For example T1 11 sheeting, unheard of here! Which means more expensive option of sheathing and then cladding. And the inexpensive shed windows you used in previous video, nope! I live in a very exposed area and and it rains a lot here!! I will end up replacing a shop bought shed every few years at this rate. Thanks for your channel it’s given me the confidence to try 👍
Always a great pleasure watching and listening to you work on a project. The information and honesty is appreciated very much, makes me feel normal to see you make a mistake once in a great while. Looking forward to the next installment, Thank you!
i love seeing the "mistakes". I have been a welding/fabricator for years now. I don't usually mess up until i'm trying to demonstrate something to a new guy. lol
I love your tips, and the fact that you keep the DIY screw up's in the videos. Because that's what we all do. But what about safety glasses or gloves? I never thought about that until I had the outside of my eye peeled off and had 2 surgeries. Love the vid's
Hi there, I enjoyed so much your video and you are so nice and make me smile. I love the way you explain how to build and show it discussing also the issues that arise and how to solve them. I live in Italy and I'm planning to build a tiny house. Would love suggestions from you for building the bedroom in a level higher than the rest of the house. I'm off grid and have solar power from panels. Hugs from Italy.
The fail on the hinge brace when raising that first wall? I've totally done that! Part of doing DIY is mucking up every now and then. Always good to laugh about it!
My brother was a framing carpenter for many years. He would use the mantra of framing carpenters, "we're not building a piano", whenever I would start getting too fastidious.
The way my dad taught me to join wall sections like your first two, instead of having two studs backed up to each other, have the join half way between two studs and a joining plate under the top plate and on top of the bottom plate, screwed to all the adjacent components to hold the join rigid. That way your stud spacing inside the wall is regular all the way along, and you can find the studs easily. If you don't put your ply sheathing on until the wall is standing up, you can sheath straight over the join and give it even more strength that way.
From genius to grade 2 stupid is 100% accurate. Also applies to working in a hot attic. That quote is now on our epic quotes sheet at work. Thanks for that.
For some reason, it looks like the top of the right side where the two sides go together, looks crooked, looks like the top comes in further, being a video, must be my eyes playing tricks on me. Lol Your videos are plain and simple, exactly what I need! Thank you!
Awesome share, man. I learned a few tricks here. Thanks for taking the time to film it and subject yourseld to the peanut gallery of "expert builders." 😂
"...genius to grade 2 stupid in about 20 minutes..." I almost choke don my lunch when you said that! LOL. Love the videos Jeff (and Matt)!!! Thanks for the info and the entertainment!
I've been told to use nails as much as possible when framing instead of screws because nails have far superior shear strength, although as a DIYer I love to use screws because I am always messing up. I end up using using a combination. I heard you say deck screws are a no-no. What screws do you recommend? AWESOME watching y'all do all this. Learning so much!
Yep and he was concerned about modifying after nailing. No problem, I use a cat's paw to dig the nail out to access with a pry bar. It's super simple. It's always good to watch someone else to learn a new trick or tip.
For the cripples is what they are called, always maintain 16 on center, 12 on center or what the studs were built on 24 on center(2x6). Keeps it consistent, and makes drywall and installing siding easier

I am so glad you left in the footage of you with that wall leg comedy! Things like that happen to me all the time, thanks for being a real person!!!
"Oh... we'll try THAT again!" 🤣 One of the best things is Jeff is a real dude out here working. Not just putting on a show for the camera.
Cheers. I love the actual work!
That is why I love his channel, every other youtube builder is just in a shop shooting 5 minute short edited videos talking
I appreciate his showing his simple mistakes and just some minor mind lapses. Like how he put the first wall support board on incorrectly twice. We all do stuff like that even if you know what you’re doing.
100%!! Learned so much over the last few years! Gave me the confidence to attempt a full floor EVP replacement...
Jeff is as legit as they come, and a great teacher on top!
I believe the mishap made me learn more, never underestimate the power of doing something wrong/backwards..etc... it can teach you more sometimes!❤😂
I love to see a father and son work together. He’s learning from Dad. Memories he’ll have forever
I love the fact the he doesn't just show you the "how" to do it, but gives you the "why". which makes a GREAT teacher/trainer. Is there anything better than having the opportunity to work with your own son, I would love it.
i love how he goes back and explains where he miscalculated, some people would just say the had to change it and cut the video. He actually teaches us the know hows...
Ive been searching for how and mostly why videos. He nails it. My favorite so far.
He should use a shorter bit at times. He tends to angle the screws cause his impact has a 8 inch bit when a 2 inch would allow him to pick the angle of every screw. Great build eather way.
Screws have problems in shear (depending on the gauge) but nails just pull out at the first sign of tension on the head.
Nails are like little boys. I wouldn't trust them under tension from the head. Lol 😂

I think that Matt is a great worker. Humble, and patient...
Cherish these times with your dad Matt. I'm 58 now and wish my dad was still around to work with and continue learning from him. Nice video guys, thank you.
Can I just say I love Jeff? 😂he’s so great at explaining everything and open about screw ups. You make me feel comfortable about DIY. Thank you ❤
I really like how you show your mistakes because when I'm doing anything there seems to be a lot of them happy mistakes of course
Youve taught your son well. He knows your next move. This is a great video. Thank you

So when you assemble the first section cut the top and bottom plate back 3/4 of an inch so the 1/2 of the stud sticks out past the sheathing edge 3'4 of an inch .

One tip i also picked up from Sethcraft was to use construction adhesive under the walls for extra holding and to keep bugs out
Can’t wait to see the next video. Finished my basement project just by watching Jeff’s videos. He is the real guy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 “Perfect Every time”
That is awesome! Well done. Cheers!
I've been watching your channel for years now. And although I live in the UK and things are a bit different in here I actually managed to renovate my entire house by learning from your videos. Thank you so much.
Well done!
I love the clean audio with a quiet power tool in the background.
No music at all.
thank you.
love your videos.
I love the fact you make it so that even us that have really no training feel that we could take on some of these projects, your channel is fantastic.
JUST IN TIME!!! My son has been telling me about building one! Thank you!
Glad I could help! Cheers!
Thanks for not editing your mistakes out of the video.
I love watching you and hearing you laugh. I laugh at myself at times and hearing you do the same is awesome. Keep up the great work sir.
I'm building a racing pigeon loft of my own and this series is really helpful. It's the first actual building project of my own and so far I gotta say I like working with wood a lot more than brick.
The fact you didn’t edit out the part with the brace being to short. Was was awesome. Great video
Whatever this new camera is, I like it. The quality is so much better. Cheers, Jeff!
That was a sony fx6 with an Nd filter. netflix approved cinema camera.
You have encourage me to build my own shed and save thousands of dollars. Thanks and God Bless.
Bro 😂 every son is nervous as heck workin around pops glad I’m not alone 😅
He is a true teacher of the work takes pride in his quality.
Watching you guys work together reminds me of me and my dad lol. Im always on my toes with pops because he will call me out on everything lol 😂
So much knowledge!I like when you make mistakes so we can see how to fix them. So many tools. Be kind to each other. Stay safe. Love to all

I will definitely will use this video for building my shed, thanks for sharing, much appreciate it.

Good video to see how DIY framing can be done. Your step by step tutorial was excellent.

i love seeing the "mistakes". I have been a welding/fabricator for years now. I don't usually mess up until i'm trying to demonstrate something to a new guy. lol
Dude, you are human, congratulations! Thx for the inspiring manageable build. Been looking for a system of build I can manage, inexpensively.
Built a shed years ago thanks to Jeff’s step by step PROcess.
I love this shed, learned alot. Thank you Evelyn from Colorado
I am building a shed 8x10 for my son to use as a hangout until hes over it and i use it for storage. Lol. This video is extremly helpful. Ty
Im always in awe if your videos. If i was younder and stronger I'd be building something you show. Thank you
Love how real this video is
Love your attitude, great teacher.
It's awesome that you keep the budget in mind. Best bang for your buck.
I love your tips, and the fact that you keep the DIY screw up's in the videos. Because that's what we all do. But what about safety glasses or gloves? I never thought about that until I had the outside of my eye peeled off and had 2 surgeries. Love the vid's
Thanks for this awesome guidance and demonstration! 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Very informative, videos have helped me a lot on my building projects. Wood Framing helped me in doing Light Gauge Steel Framing
Great work and explanation
“I had it in reverse. Imagine that.” This video makes me feel so much better about my skills or lack there of.
You don’t know how much you hust saved me with this video. THANK YOU SO MUCH 💖
Hi there, I enjoyed so much your video and you are so nice and make me smile. I love the way you explain how to build and show it discussing also the issues that arise and how to solve them.

Love the way you show the odd mistake.. It happens.....
What a awesome down to earth man! Great channel and amazing videos.
You are giving hammer drill a new meaning 😆
It's your shed, build it however you want, we're just happy to watch.
The fail on the hinge brace when raising that first wall? I've totally done that! Part of doing DIY is mucking up every now and then. Always good to laugh about it!
better to laugh then cry. Cheers!
Great video. Thanks, guys.
We all do and will make mistakes! Thank you for showing us that Pros do it too!!
Great video. Thank you for sharing this.
My brother was a framing carpenter for many years. He would use the mantra of framing carpenters, "we're not building a piano", whenever I would start getting too fastidious.
Always crown your studs and have crown facing same direction. Makes finish carpentry easier
Nice video. Thank you for sharing!
Matty stomping them boots overtop everything
You start the video with the square triangle on your hand, you could have use it a few times :)
Great video thanks for the content.
So much good intel. Much appreciated.
The way my dad taught me to join wall sections like your first two, instead of having two studs backed up to each other, have the join half way between two studs and a joining plate under the top plate and on top of the bottom plate, screwed to all the adjacent components to hold the join rigid. That way your stud spacing inside the wall is regular all the way along, and you can find the studs easily.
If you don't put your ply sheathing on until the wall is standing up, you can sheath straight over the join and give it even more strength that way.
From genius to grade 2 stupid is 100% accurate. Also applies to working in a hot attic. That quote is now on our epic quotes sheet at work. Thanks for that.
33minutes Jeff,safety glasses missing!! Great videos!! From the UK
Thanks man, love tutorials like this!! Thank you so much
For some reason, it looks like the top of the right side where the two sides go together, looks crooked, looks like the top comes in further, being a video, must be my eyes playing tricks on me. Lol Your videos are plain and simple, exactly what I need! Thank you!
“Whoops. Didn’t account for…anything.” Story of my life Jeff! 😂
sometimes when I am working on camera I completely forget about the math.
39:15 Tilted stud (third one on the far wall). Nice!
Damn Jeff! You are a damn genius! Please bless me Uncle Jeff.
I thought you were doing a one man DIY but your son is helping
Awesome share, man. I learned a few tricks here. Thanks for taking the time to film it and subject yourseld to the peanut gallery of "expert builders." 😂
"...genius to grade 2 stupid in about 20 minutes..." I almost choke don my lunch when you said that! LOL. Love the videos Jeff (and Matt)!!! Thanks for the info and the entertainment!
I've been told to use nails as much as possible when framing instead of screws because nails have far superior shear strength, although as a DIYer I love to use screws because I am always messing up. I end up using using a combination. I heard you say deck screws are a no-no. What screws do you recommend? AWESOME watching y'all do all this. Learning so much!
Yep and he was concerned about modifying after nailing. No problem, I use a cat's paw to dig the nail out to access with a pry bar. It's super simple.
It's always good to watch someone else to learn a new trick or tip.
Great video and glade you kept the mistakes in it, even the pros mess up some time.
Nice job man make it look easy
3 Mil Lets GO!!!! Carpet video TIME!!!!!
"We'll try that again..." That caused me to like the video.
Im go building my first shed and i find the perfect video to how make it thanks guys
For the cripples is what they are called, always maintain 16 on center, 12 on center or what the studs were built on 24 on center(2x6). Keeps it consistent, and makes drywall and installing siding easier
A drawing professionally done , with elevations, cross section and a couple of details is a necessity. Explains a lot and no- brainer on site.
6:00. the old "do it again Dad" technique in full effect. Hey, your human too. Glad to see it
Thanks I am building a shed next week 10 by 12 .
