I'm in the middle of building my second shed (10' x 16' lean-to) with your plans, and I'm really happy with the way the plans and video work together to make things much easier. I'm no carpenter, but as a communication major and teacher, I especially appreciate how the video instructions consistently explain the process. Some might miss this, but just like when I teach my kids something, I value instructions that teach not only the "what" and "how" of each task, but also the "why," -- a highly underrated and important piece of the learning process! (For those of us who can barely recognize a hammer two out of three times.) :)
I am not in the construction industry nor am I a carpenter, I wanted a good guide to help with small projects such as small sheds and some remodeling around the house. So there’s a magic which is Shed Plan [ visit here *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. This Shed Plan co.vers all my instructions from top to bottom in a step by step manner.
@@MrJbeaste Built mine at 10' to get the most out of the storage space... neighbor not so happy with the visibility of my shed from his side, but... sorry! lol
Great! I need a much smaller shed but this has all of the design features I need. A local house being built gave me all of the extra wood they were throwing away. I have enough to start building this weekend.
Thank you Ryan for releasing a great product as this [ Check Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Most of the plans I have imagined in my mind are put down on your woodworking plans. This is more like a genius job. I love it!?
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into ru-vid.comUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
For me, the ideas in this Ryan's Shed Plans were a starting point for building different sheds ru-vid.comUgkxn5Hu39f8DPIFYfBbaiOSis3qfw0nqoFp Ryan's gives ideas that allow an individual to draw nicest conclusions into the design and building of his or her own shed.
Two saw horses with ply or 2x12 makes a much more efficient and convenient cutting station. I never work on the ground. Assemble my walls on four horses with a ledger board clamped to header and floor plates. Use ratchet straps to tighten assembly and power nail it or power screw it together. Tight contact makes a big difference when using an air nailer.
Kudos for the Video clip! Apologies for butting in, I would love your thoughts. Have you considered - Canackenzie Astounded Cure (search on google)? It is a good one off guide for building better sheds and master woodworking minus the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my friend finally got great success with it.
Need to build my 1st bike shed. Simple enough. Just a 4'x4'x6' box mostly. This answered all my beginner questions. Best vid ive seen on yhe subject after about 20 vids.
Great Video! Apologies for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you considered - Mahorrla Wooden Paradise Method (google it)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for building better sheds and woodworking minus the normal expense. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cousin finally got great results with it.
You can use this same concept, and make a little house:) just do what hes doing, and tripple the size, then make sections, and you can rent it out if you have land.
+David Boggs Excellent video content! Apologies for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you researched - Mahorrla Wooden Paradise Method (should be on google have a look)?

Been building our own house along with 5 others.And learning alot about framing. Which I HAVE NEVER done in my whole life I might add 😆!! This will be easy peasy. And it's an 8x10 build?
interesting points ,if anyone else trying to find out backyard storage sheds plans try *WoodBlueprints. Com* Ive heard some dece.nt things about it and my colleague got cool success with it.

Thanks for the educational video. Two comments - First, at 2:35, you say to continue making marks every 16-3/4 inches. Shouldn't that be 16-3/4" inches for the first mark, then every 16 inches after that? (16" on center) Second, if a person makes a shed that is, say, 8 feet deep, would it make sense to make the floor less deep by 1" ( 7'11") if you use half-inch siding, so that the siding on left and right would cover the corners fore and aft, and be flush with the siding on the front and back?
I've seen other suggest same on size of base/floor. One thing to consider is most add trim boards to cover the corners which would hide the gap. I have a "10x10" shed, quotes because I think it IS in fact 10' 2"ish x 10' 2"ish just due to this. But that is measuring from outside of trim. So I think, technically, the framing is 10 foot. I'm about to change the entire roof from a fairly flat peaked style to a barn roof. Need more height for the BowFlex! Plus, a loft would be nice for light stuff. So once I remove the trim I'll remeasure to see exactly how it's built. I'd bet shed is nearly 20 years old. Pretty solid shape. I'm rambling now. As usual.
@@gailtaylor1636 i prefer to *not* have a hollow little square area at each corner of the plywood sheathing if the walls are not made less deep (or less wide) by double the thickness of the outer plywood. It just means cutting the floor joists to result in a square dimension on the two-by boards that will fit inside full-width sheets of plywood (or half-width sheets if walls are 2, 6, 10, or 14' wide). For half-inch-thick sheathing, the floor joists, which include the perimeter 2x boards, should be 1" less than an even number of feet (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, etc.) in one direction, but can be the full even number of feet in the other direction. That will assure a result of corners that have plywood filling the outer corners, with no gaps hidden below the corner trim, added later as a purely cosmetic cover. Gaps create places for bugs.
So, if you had 2 walls span the entire length, and the other 2 walls were 7 inches shorter because they are inside, did you alter the measurement for your stud locations so that sheathing still lands on the studs at 4 feet? I didn't hear that part in the video
Thank you Ryan for releasing a great product as this [ Check Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Most of the plans I have imagined in my mind are put down on your woodworking plans. This is more like a genius job. I love it!?
For two walls the joists are perpendicular so I can see how you would get two nails in but the other two walls just have the one floor joist. So how are they done? Is this international building code?
Part 5 At 2:39 "...continue making marks every 16 3/4"...", shouldn't that be every 16" after the first stud ? thus marking edge to edge? Nice series! thanks,
Not to state the obvious, but if we understood the basics of framing we wouldn't be watching this video. It should have an overdub or a statement regarding this issue. It is major and will screw up a bunch of beginner's walls.
I noticed that too. It didn't line up with what I learned before. I checked other places and this indeed was a mistake in this video. What a waste of time. Now I'd need to double check other stuff in the video.... or just watch a different video.
Your shed looks great! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! I built an 8x10 shed for my kids in my backyard earlier this year using plans I got from *WoodBlueprints. Com* Clear directions and an accurate materials list...It was great for a novice builder like myself!
great job on this video.. made it so easy and simple .. broke it down where the steps were necessary. & overall a nice decent sized shed.. would you happen to have the plans to shed, how much did you spent ..

Seems good so far! Was easy to talk to about his My Shed Plans [Go Here=> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Guided me in the right direction & helped me und.erstand everything & in the end it was what I wanted
I did follow your link, but your plans do not show the exact length of the wall studs . . . it just shows the top of the roof from the bottom of the ground. Therefore, you have to calculate the differences.
I believe that anyone who ever tried building their own project using do-it-yourself recommendations, at least once, undertook the frustrating time when the result always was much worse than expectation.
+Karen J. Scarlett And a lot of bungling rookies (just like me) discover that getting a detailed guide is the only and surefire approach to get the project completed. This guideline is worth trying out: fine4.info/build-woodwork-today-x00021
Great video series. What specific shed (including dimensions) is being built in this series? I'd like to make sure I get the right plans. What is the wall height for this series?
If you are going to the trouble of making walls and putting them up as a unit, you may as well screw it together rather than nailing. That way it can be dismantled (and even sold if you don't need it anymore).
Screws are more brittle than nails and tend to break, leading to more failures. Nails naturally have a little more "give" when the lumber eventually settles under load.
Whether you're done this before or it's your first attempt! - RyanShedPlans will help you decide which shed project is best suited for you, how to execute it and bring professional results every time. Visit => *WoodBlueprints. Com*
When nailing the bottom plate to the floor on the side running parallel to the joists, and using 90x35 timber, means only one nail every 200mm would attach along the 35mm face of the joist (as the 90mm face of bottom plate will be on top of the 35mm face of joist). Will that be sufficient to hold it? Or should I use double joists for the two ends? Thank you for all the helpful videos! :)
Is a double top plate an absolute necessity? I'm building an 8'x12' shed and the design (provided by a friend) doesn't include a double top plate. All 4 walls are the same height. I'll be using tapered 2"x6"x10' roof support boards, tapered to 5.5" on one end and 1.5" at the other end. The taper gives the roof a slight angle, its fine because we don't get snow. Do I need the double top plate?
I think all it does is adds stability. If you don't have it, you're just relying on tbe nails to hold the corners together. The roof would hold it together, but for the price of 4 2x4s, might as well add it.
If it is finished, heated or cooled, space inside I would recommend sill sealer. For storage sheds it is not necessary since there is air leaking from many other places on the shed.
Sounds like a compliment... instructions and demonstration simple enough that a 12 year old can build from it 😊. Who needs a trade school when this guy's videos exist?
Hello Mr. ICreatables I'm thinking of building my own shed. I would love to know the size of the shed you built and also a rough estimate of the cost in material... thanks

depends really if you're going to build the thing yourself but assuming you are then it will definetly be cheaper to buy all the materials and construct it yourself than to buy pre-made, not only will it be cheaper by probably a few hundred depending on how big you go but the quality should be a lot higher, of course if you construct it properly which i have no doubt that you can do!

In this video you say its ok yo use 92 5/8th wall studs but in the plans I got from you guys it says 6ft 2-1/2. Is it really ok to not cut them because I would rather not waste the time cutting them =D.
Ben Silverman Yes you can leave them longer but the total wall height will be 8'-1 1/2". So if you want the 8' tall siding to hang over below the floor joint you will have a siding joint a few inches down from the top of the wall. This joint will need to be flashed using "Z" metal.
Great and easy video to follow I do have one question, when making the header wouldnt sandwiching the two boards, 2x6s between the osb make it larger than the actual dimention of the 2x4? im not sure maybe i missed something could you please elaborate
2x6 have a thickness of 1.5 inches. Two together with 1/2" between is 3-1/2 inches which is the width of a 2x4 wall. In other words 2x4 is nominal dimension. Actual dimension is 1.6 x 3.5 inches. 2x6 is 1.5 x 5.5".
Your shed looks great! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! I built an 8x10 shed for my kids in my backyard earlier this year using plans I got from *WoodBlueprints. Com* Clear directions and an accurate materials list...It was great for a novice builder like myself!
Two things I don't understand: 1) At 2:36, you say to continue making marks every 16.75". Don't you mean every 16", if the walls are to be 16" on center? You're clearly making a mark at 32.75". And 2) If you put a standard 48x96 sheet of plywood flush against the outermost wall stud, the other side of the plywood is going to end up just next to a stud, not overlapping it halfway. So what's the deal with that?

is it ok to use ...3 inch exterior self drilling star screws for this project instead of nails?..I don't have a nail gun or compressor, but I do have a Porter Cable impact 18 volt impact drill along with a hammer drill...I like the impact wrench, because its quick and it torques damn good.
As Bobby Sather says the shear strength of a screw is much less than a nail. Screws have much greater pull out strength. Most jurisdictions require nails. For homes you will want to use nails. For a small shed like this you can use exterior screws in my opinion. If it is big enough to require a permit, check with your local building department. PS - People have been building homes with hammers and nails for hundreds of years. You don't need a compressor, it just makes the job easier.

Murat Macit If it is not attached to the ground via ground anchors there is only gravity that keeps it from tilting. If you live in a high wind area or your local building department requires anchoring then ground anchors can be purchased and installed.
naughty naughty OSB sheeting! Did you seal the edges or something? I'd rather go cheap and get OSB but most people advise against it as the edges expand with moisture and then don't contract back when dry unlike plywood.
I built a shed with these plans from Ryan [ Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ] . The instructions were clear and easy to implement. Even a novice can be able to build fast using this plan. I'm happy I bought the plan. It also saved me much cost.
if you guys think that this is not durable enough, i urge you to place another 4x4 rail right in the middle so in long run your 2x6's will NEVER bend thus lenght of this sheds life will probably doubled...
As long as the studs are all the same length and your floor is level the wall will be level. You will make it plumb when you install the siding. See the next siding video. www.icreatables.com/sheds/photo-gallery-modern-sheds
