    well done video . Other videos are often full of all kinds of unnecessary chatter. Some guys will talk about what they had for breakfast and which direction the wind blows and perhaps their mommy too. This was strait to the point.

    Fantastic build, mate! I think this will happen in MY backyard! Couple of questions:
    1) would you use 4x4's for the vertical corner and middle posts (ie/ all the way up to roof height)?
    2) what ratio did you dilute your stain?
    Thanks again for a terrific video - really helpful!

    • @thatDIYlife
      @thatDIYlife  Před 2 lety +5

      Yeah 4x4s for the posts would make more sense. They were extra spendy when I made this so I went the more cost effective route.

      Eh to be fair they were kind of necessary to attach the vertical pieces to the top and bottom. Although, personally I would’ve just paid a bit more for 4x4 all the way to the top

    What about a bit of guttering at the back up the roof to catch the rainwater in a water barrel for your plants........🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    • @thatDIYlife
      @thatDIYlife  Před rokem

      It certainly wouldn’t hurt. I’ve always thought about it but water is pretty cheap around here so there hasn’t been a ton of motivation to do it.

  • @freshofbreathair1476
    @freshofbreathair1476 Před 3 měsíci

    I recommend much bigger roof overhangs or you’ll need to hang tarps around it. Also the gaps between the slats are way too big. Will make stacking a pain in the ass.

    • @thatDIYlife
      @thatDIYlife  Před 3 měsíci

      I’ve thought about that and I get what you’re saying. I’ve been using it for two years and it’s been fine. We don’t get sideways rain here or anything

    GReat video and great build MMB!
    I just got one thought to share, since the roof is angled. Will you not face problems with wet firewood when it rains angled inwards the front of the shed? Since the roof i higher there, there´ll be a greater risk of rain hitting the mid-low firewood at the front of the shed.

    • @thatDIYlife
      @thatDIYlife  Před rokem

      You’re right the rain does hit wood where you’re saying but to be honest it’s never affected how fast the wood seasons. If I would do it over I would extend the roof another foot in front. This was my first time building anything outdoors so it was a learning experience 🙂 good question though

  • @sage4947
    @sage4947 Před rokem

    Maybe Im overthinking. Was thinking 2x6 would be more appropriate for the weight on the flooring. Also curious about the pocket screws for the cross supports on the floor framing. I was thinking of running long ways then the decking on the floor perpendicular. This design you got here gonna hold up over time with the weight? No regrets?

    What’s the reason for cutting the 4x4 blocks and building the base around those vs. using 4x4s that stretch to the required height and then nailing 2x4s to that?

    • @thatDIYlife
      @thatDIYlife  Před 5 měsíci +2

      I think it would be harder to level the 4x4s on the concrete blocks since they’re not flat on the inside. It was cheaper too
