DIY 10x16 Barn Kit from Best Barns

This is a video that demonstrates what it takes to assemble one of these common DIY Barn Kits. This is a 10x16 kit from Best Barns and it is sold by Menards, Home Depot, Lowes, and other big box stores. It is also a kit that some contractors buy and install for their customers. The intent of this video is to show you what you will get and what you are "getting into" if you decide to "Do It Yourself".

I’ve been thinking about this build kit from HD and your video really helps. Thank you for taking the time to film and giving us details about the build.

Very helpful, I’m looking to build a tiny home and have little to no power/air tools! I’ve worked as a roofer and have been doing electrical work for years. I am fairly confident in my ability to build it but it may take me a little longer is all

Hey, Chase. Thanks for the comment. If you scale this design up, it make a pretty good frame for a 'tiny home'. I'm sure you will do well on your project. Have fun!

I was off-grid when I built this. Battery powered hand tools, mostly. Had a small compressor and gas generator for air nailing.

It has been so fun and that’s what I ended up using as well, I’ve still gotta make it pretty but it’s pretty good for now haha, hope you’re doing well!

How much did you charge for labor?

[@HandyHermit]

It was a shed I built for myself. My labor was "free" to me! 😅
