Can you cover iin Part 2 what you've spent on something like this? It'd be interesting to hear your thoughts on the various price ranges you can work in for a shed like this.
@@MichaelAlm Yes please! This is a fantastic build, but before I get my hopes up, I want to know if I can afford it.m😉 Thanks so much for putting out fantastic content.
@@jenkinssthomson8879 I said it’s a fantastic build, not design. It was not a difficult comment to parse. I like Michael’s channel and have learned a lot from him, so I’m always happy to tip my hat to talented people.
Its just a shed, but having the header sit on only jack-studs without a king-stud on the sides nor a double-top plate will make it a lil less ridged. Bc it's outside you might use "hurricane ties"(inexpensive) to secure the roof to the walls. Other than that its looking good man👌🏻
Looking good, Michael. The advantage to cutting three sheets at once is that if you make a mistake, you can make three times as much scrap in the same amount of time (lol). Looking forward to part 2. Stay safe. Bill
Nice project. Looking forward to part 2. I like your creative use of the clamps...I often work alone, those things really give you that extra set of hands.
I keep coming back to this video looking for plans. Would love to co-opt a build like this in a narrow strip between my neighbor and I so I can finally get the garden tools and mower out of the garage! :)
This is my favorite build!!! A few weeks ago I saw a couple build a fence/shed and the shed acting as their gate and walkway through to their yard… I thought that was brilliant because it’s multi purpose and functional especially for yard tools, etc. Yours obviously tops theirs but also your the most detailed and it’s stunning! Well done, can’t wait for the rest of it 👏🏼
This is awesome, have been following along on insta and great to see the video. I built a small shed with a green roof from my own 'plans' without feeling like I knew what I was doing, it's extremely reassuring to see you following pretty much the same steps I took. Looking forward to part 2!
I would love to see you build a mini home. And I feel like you would find good ways to make it more aesthetically interesting than a standard mini home also
Wow, I enjoyed that, looking forward to part two. Obviously you'll be fitting locks, but aren't you worried about security for the tools? In the UK garden tools and furniture are amongst the list of frequent opportunist thefts!
You are very lucky having access to cedar for these projects... here in Ireland it is definitely a luxury product. Would love to build with it. Nice job, looking forward to seeing how this ends up!
Very nice video Michael, I'm planning to do something similar but a bit bigger and I'm always concerned about wood and rain, would be nice if in any of your future outdoor videos you go deeper in the 101 rules of making something outdoor to last forever
You silly tart haha, I really hope that side sheet didn't hurt too much. You looked real frustrated but took it on the chin, something I'd do haha. Daft. That roof looks proper strong and well done. Great project bud
Great job on the design! I never comment on videos, but there is a small, fatal flaw in the base. As it stands now, the entire structure is resting on six nails in the front. I’ve seen similar solutions snap 6mm screws, so I’d advise you to add some blocks underneath the frame that you leveled. Thank you for the fun content, greetings from Norway!
Interesting that Michael Alm cut a ceder 2*4 with an angle, so that the water will not go into the below ceder. But then he use screw to screw the above ceder down. I think it would have been better to use L-brackets under to have it down. Since now there will be water where the screw is, and that will go down in the above ceder 2*4, which will need to be exchange faster. Beside that. A really nice build.
Great build in looking forward to part 2, I don’t remember hearing the size of the hole shed and covering.:.plans would be great but we don’t have a huge space so I was wondering what’s the over all size
Thanks Michael. Good and informative video. Don't you have to anchor or tie the foundation down in some manner? I know it has some protection with the small retention wall on two sides, but I would think to protect against storm winds, etc. that you would need to secure the foundation to the ground for a shed like this.
Nice to be tall , us short guys have to stand on something. LOL! Good to see a guy who hols a hammer correctly...LOL! As I said it looks better than your neighbor's house,
Great build so far. PLEASE tell me what the music starting at 16:00 is??? I'd love to know the track / artists so I can listen to the full version. Thank you.
That is the first time I’ve heard that type of pressure treated lumber called “incised” and I’ve always wondered. I always referred to it as “staple wood” because it looks like it has staples all over it ( I know it doesn’t). We do not have this type of lumber on the east coast so it’s a little foreign to me. Shannon recently referred to it on the Lumber Industry Update podcast but even he didn’t use that term.
I see you have a variety of dimensions for the sheds, anything closer to the 200sqft? I was thinking doubling the 10x10 maybe reducing the lower side by 16 or 32 inches then figuring out the additional materials and measurements for heights. Unless you have plans for something that size already.. Awesome video btw thanks for taking the time and making all your videos
Looks great! I'm late to the game but a nice detail is adding side soffits on the roof overhang instead of just front and rear. Build a ladder on either side and continue the top 2x4 out to the edge.
We definitely all had that moment where after a long day of work you make a stupid mistake that ends up in a near miss. Glad this didn't end up worse than it did!
Wow, super strong build, strong enough to support a 2nd storey! Looks like built to code for a residential building! Are you going to add any patterned end grain plywood for that Alm look ?
Hey man, I love your work and really enjoyed watching this. Keep up the good work. I also really enjoy the music- would you be able to tell me the artist/song that's playing at 9:15? Appreciate it!
Interested to know why you cut the 4x2 rafter down to almost 2" instead of using blocking between the rafters? You removed most of the structural strength doing it the way you did.
The rafters don’t take much of a load especially out here where we don’t get much snow. Also once the sheathing is nailed on it becomes super rigid. If it can handle me walking on it, then it should be able to handle everything it needs to.
@@MichaelAlm The rigidity is all from the sheathing Michael, using 4 x2" and cutting off 1/2 of the density is not the way to go. You would have had same effect if you had blocked in the normal way, and it would have been easier also. I am not saying you have done it wrong (for your area) only pointing out that there is an easier, and in my opinion better way to achieve this. I am in the UK so we also do not have heavy snow loads normally.
So you are cutting on top of your unused ply.. do you just set the plunge depth to the exact depth of your ply? Is there scoring underneath or is it on a sacrificial slab?
@@MichaelAlm nice and you get a full cut w not scoring or anything? i guess if you knicked it a bit its covered w shingles anyway. I just figured even at exact depth you may get some marks. Im interested cause ripping down big boards is always such a pain.
Can you cover iin Part 2 what you've spent on something like this? It'd be interesting to hear your thoughts on the various price ranges you can work in for a shed like this.
Yeah, I can touch on that for sure 👍
@@MichaelAlm Yes please! This is a fantastic build, but before I get my hopes up, I want to know if I can afford it.m😉 Thanks so much for putting out fantastic content.
@@RyanWattersRyanWatters Fantastic design? It’s a wood foundation in rainy Seattle. Think a little more don’t be shy.

I love a building that is constructed with such intention to last.
I'm so pumped to see this one come alive! Excellent work, Michael!
Thanks Eric!
Your attention to the little details is fantastic!
That generosity in materials using to create such stuffs👍 worth it man.
I love how well built this is even though it is just a small shed
wow building one of these is not as simple as it may seem. You put a LOT of work and detail into this thing. Looks great, cant wait to see part 2!
Thanks dude!
I just love this channel. Perfectly narrated, funny sometimes, nice music. 10/10!
Whoever is in charge of your sound did a great job! The music you are using is top notch! 👌
Nice job. Well engineered. That will never fall down! 😉👍
If developers built houses the way you built this shed, the world would be a much more solid place
Its just a shed, but having the header sit on only jack-studs without a king-stud on the sides nor a double-top plate will make it a lil less ridged.
Bc it's outside you might use "hurricane ties"(inexpensive) to secure the roof to the walls. Other than that its looking good man👌🏻
Excellent video. Thank you and we loved the voice over.
So much useful framing information. You're making me think about fixing up a shed I have that desperately needs some love
Yep, definitely interested in the plans for this build! Beautiful work so far!
Awesome! Thank you 🙌
Just love the look. Can’t wait for part 2!
Just building a shed to make into a workshop so this was of great interest to me
Wow, so far, it's fantastic. You have done a wonderful job, and it was enjoyable to watch. Thank you for sharing 😊
Looks great, I like seeing the outside of your shop and catching a glimpse of Old Gold in the background.
Awesome job Michael, looking forward to part 2! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Thoroughly enjoyed this build! love to see you getting into outdoor builds
I'm really liking the look of this shed/enclosure! It has got me thinking about where and what our cans look like. 👍Can't wait for pt. 2!
Thanks dude 🙌
27:50 love those clouds...
What an excellent demo.
Looking good, Michael. The advantage to cutting three sheets at once is that if you make a mistake, you can make three times as much scrap in the same amount of time (lol). Looking forward to part 2. Stay safe.

Great iob and looks fantastic. I really like the design and will try to duplicate it!!! Awesome tutorial!!!

Very cool...looking forward to part 2.
Coming along really nicely! Gave me some ideas for my lean to/wood storage I'm going to build behind my shed
Thanks! That's great!
Super cool styling.

Nice!! I watched a lot of UA-cam videos before tackling mine 😂 A green roof would be awesome!!
30' video of anything? Nah, I'll pass.
30 'video from Michael? I've got my popcorn ready!
Hahaha! Thank you sir! 🍿
Great job!
looking good so far!
Looking forward to part 2 and yes to the plan!
Definitely in for plans.
Fantastic, Michael! It's looking great already! 😃
Looking forward to part 2!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I would love to see you build a mini home. And I feel like you would find good ways to make it more aesthetically interesting than a standard mini home also
I can tell how much fun you were having on this type of project. Let’s have some more like this!
Looks great so far. Looking forward to part 2!
It’s looking awesome buddy. Still wish we had some of the pressure treated lumber by me lol
Thanks Bart 🙌 do the not stock pressure treat in IL? Or is it supply issues?
Wow, I enjoyed that, looking forward to part two. Obviously you'll be fitting locks, but aren't you worried about security for the tools? In the UK garden tools and furniture are amongst the list of frequent opportunist thefts!
Looks super!
Can't wait for part 2
Impressive. Thanks for sharing.
We would definetly be interested a build plan. Great build.
Thanks!! I’m working on them 👍
Hope to see some patterned plywood make an appearance in part 2. ;)
You are very lucky having access to cedar for these projects... here in Ireland it is definitely a luxury product. Would love to build with it. Nice job, looking forward to seeing how this ends up!
For real! We’re in the heart of red cedar country. (It’s still not cheap though 😬) thank you!!
Great build!

Thanks Andrés! I’ll talk more about that in the next video for sure!!
Great project!
Yo, that makes an awesome lemonade stand too lol
You silly tart haha, I really hope that side sheet didn't hurt too much. You looked real frustrated but took it on the chin, something I'd do haha. Daft. That roof looks proper strong and well done. Great project bud
Dude... you do such great work. Love it. And perfect timing. I'm taking this weekend to redo the workshop roof. :)
Hey that old Benz is beautiful - it needs a garage !

Just did a fence with cedar pickets. The extra dollars on the "zip-tip" screws to avoid pre-drilling was definitely money well spent.
Interesting that Michael Alm cut a ceder 2*4 with an angle, so that the water will not go into the below ceder. But then he use screw to screw the above ceder down.

A "Corona" wheelbarrow! Interesting!
Oh this is so good
Plans would be killer
Well done! Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks!! Sure thing 👍
Great build in looking forward to part 2, I don’t remember hearing the size of the hole shed and covering.:.plans would be great but we don’t have a huge space so I was wondering what’s the over all size
Thanks! The footprint is 12ft x 5ft
I'm glad you lived.
Holy 🐄!
Would love these plans
Thanks Michael. Good and informative video. Don't you have to anchor or tie the foundation down in some manner?

I never thought I'd hear the phrases "hypotenuse", "Pythagorean Theorem", or "3-4-5 triangle" again after leaving highschool.
I think you came to the right place tho' lol
As a maths teacher, I approve this real world example of "When am I gonna need this?"
Looks great! I'm late to the game but a nice detail is adding side soffits on the roof overhang instead of just front and rear. Build a ladder on either side and continue the top 2x4 out to the edge.
At 5:36, walnut plywood for a spacer in framing? I expect nothing less from Michael Alm! 🙃
Only the finest 😉
We definitely all had that moment where after a long day of work you make a stupid mistake that ends up in a near miss. Glad this didn't end up worse than it did!
Great video! What air hose are you using?
That’s an awesome bar. Put a tiki roof on it and it will be a tiki bar
Wow, super strong build, strong enough to support a 2nd storey! Looks like built to code for a residential building! Are you going to add any patterned end grain plywood for that Alm look ?
I’m in the Seattle area and trying to do a shed build this summer- do you have a go-to lumber yard?
Hey man, I love your work and really enjoyed watching this. Keep up the good work. I also really enjoy the music- would you be able to tell me the artist/song that's playing at 9:15? Appreciate it!
Is the header really necessary? Came out great!
I’d rather err on the side of overbuilt 🤷🏼♂️ thank you!
Where did you get the reclaimed doors and windows from again?
I think it was Casper the Friendly Ghost pushing the garbage bin.
Do you have the plans available, I’m going to build one. I’ll have to modify your design for the tool shed to face same as the garbage cans.
How can it be a 2x4 if you need to put in plywood to level it up?
why not drill into the concrete and use threaded anchor bolts to let you level the floor?
Interested to know why you cut the 4x2 rafter down to almost 2" instead of using blocking between the rafters? You removed most of the structural strength doing it the way you did.

👍👍
Your garbage can and wheelbarrow have a more sturdily-built house than some *people* I know.
Do you have no own compost in the garden?
I do, but we don’t do food waste. That goes in the bin along with big limbs and stuff
