- Building a lean to shed, on the side of an existing shed
If watching this video makes your hands hurt, do what I did, get an impact driver like this one:

title should read "building a shed alone with minimal tools".....my wife better not ever stumble upon this amazing video :)
That is a catchy title, I may re-name it later on ;)
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into czcams.com/users/postUgkxTNB_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.
I would guess it would be asphalt Shingles with a thin sheet of OSB wood underneath
This hurt just to watch! Seriously, I give you a lot of credit for doing this on your own.
I'm impressed that you did this all with out a drill/impact driver
This guy deserves a thousand dollar tool combo set (gifted) from any major tool supplier! I would love to see the progression! Please! Rigid! Sponsor this guy! I'm subscribing right now! I love this guy! I've never seen someone so useless in execution, explain the theory so well. Bravo! That was a blast!
Lovely Video! Apologies for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you ever tried - Mahorrla Wooden Paradise Method (search on google)? It is a smashing one off guide for building better sheds and woodworking minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate after a lifetime of fighting got astronomical success with it.
Excellent Video clip! Sorry for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Mahorrla Wooden Paradise Method (search on google)? It is an awesome exclusive product for building better sheds and woodworking minus the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my work colleague got excellent success with it.
I second that motion. C'mon Rigid? Ryobi? Kobalt? Where are you guys?
P
I was thinking that the entire time...hes explaining things so well but not using screws and cutting drip edges and shingles with scissors and calling plywood a "roof piece" and not using the word "stud". Lol. There's just too much funny going on here.
The fact that you’re using a screw driver, giving you a thumbs up. That requires massive dedication!
Here here!
Lmaoooooo. To be fair, he used like 3 screws on the entire build but yeah, still an interesting choice for sure. Lol. And the way he uses the hammer too. What a legend.
You guys are harsh!!!!!!!! The guy is doing a good job and is probably Scottish ancestry like me. I started this work after retirement as a severe amateur progressing to handyman,after 4 years major rehabber. I started with a manual screw driver and was dragged kicking and screaming into power tools ( why would I buy power tool when a manual screw driver cost nothing----I know,I know! But you ain't Scottish) now I have multiple rental properties and I am all power,but it was't easy--the guy did a nice job and I would hire him for my crew.
This is one of the simplest shed projects that I saw on CZcams. Good job! great inspiration to amateurs like me.. lol. I wanted to build a lean shed on the side of the house. Looking at this video gave me the confidence to go with the project.
"The spare roofing pieces" aka shingles. Lol this keeps getting better the longer I watch.
Can't believe he is mostly doing all of this work BY HIMSELF! Excellent teaching approach -- clear, concise, and interesting. Thank you!
Great job. Thank you for recording this project.
The fact you did this with a hand drill instead of impact drill, a pen and not construction pencil, and a craftsman….I give you props
thanks for taking time to show and tell, well done i will keep looking for info on getting my pitch correct
Thanks! For mine, I just tried to copy close to the same pitch as the regular roof of the main shed when I drew up my plans.
Can't let my wife see this video, or I will never be able to buy all the tools I think I need. That said, it is kind of refreshing watching someone build something with reclaimed wood and tools they already have. Good job!
Great video. Excellent job explaining your process.
How to build a shed with the fewest tools possible! Good on ya!👍
I know. This guy is incredible.
100% exactly what I was looking for. thanks!!
Goes to great lengths to protect the roof from leaking then leaves front and back side s wide open and finally you killed it with that piece of good on the door latch...😂
Very helpful.from the UK.
This was very useful. I am building a lean to om my house. Luckily its a gap with a three wall surround and wont be very big.
But i did stand there taking measurements wondering what i was doing 😂
This has helped a lot and also given me confidence to just do it!
Great job. The mind is the greatest tool. Much respect.
Yes! Thank you!
My fore arm hurts after watching this but it shows anyone can do it good job
Great video!! Going to do this lay out for a utility trailer I just purchased.
Well, one can tell carpentry is not your day job. I'll root for engineering. You are extremely precise. Your hands shows that. Anyhow, thank you for taking the time to show this to us. This is very helpful to me. Dewalt, eat your heart out!!!
It looks like you have some nice projects of your own, love your turkey coop!
@@burrheadjr Yes, I have build many useful things in my backyard. Thank you for viewing. :-)
This is such a great vid. Exactly what I am planning so got some great ideas. Also it's so nice to see someone do a projext like this just using a square and a circular saw and not going to a table saw every 5 seconds - very encouraging!
I am thoroughly enjoying this. Really taught me how to do it.
Very nice. Im going to use this to build a lean to carport.
Well done mate, I appreciate the work that went in to that
Glad you enjoyed it
excellent vid, really appreciate you putting this together, exactly what I want to do
You do very good work! Always so thorough. 😊
Beautiful good work bro
Great job, gave me a great idea on what I need to do. The overall explanation of the work being done was very informational. The finished product looked great for what it was. I agree that you are ready for a sponsor.
Should have turned the first shingle upside down so the tar strip was on the bottom
That was outstanding! That is me on the weekend, I can relate to this guy. Although he is much better than I.
He really did just fine. 👍👍
enjoyed watching and got a few new ideas for mine....though mine will be quite a bit bigger, being built on my 40x30 barn
Yeah - I’m scratching my head wondering why you have a drill , but no drill bit for your screws. Good work though!
J G that was painful to watch.
Lol
Yep lol
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.
Loli was busy distracting my self thru the whole video of reasons why you wouldn't have a drill
Thanks!!! Great clear step by step instructions. Not everyone has a garage or workshop full of expensive tools to build something. You use the sort of tools most people have so this build becomes doable for almost everyone at a far less cost than buying a ready made shed around this size or hiring someone to build it. I need to build a lean to on my garden shed for my gas snowblower so it is easy to access and is weather protected. Leaving it outside also means it is more likely to get stolen.
i would advise you to get a set of saw horses get the right set you could use two 2x4 then a sheet of plywood to make a table top where u could cut other plywood. also might want to invest in a impact driver they are dirt cheap around the holidays. nice work on the lean to.
Good and clear video
Watching you use a screwdriver on all those screws made my hands hurt....
Appreciate Video! Excuse me for butting in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you tried - Mahorrla Wooden Paradise Method (just google it)? It is an awesome exclusive product for building better sheds and woodworking minus the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate after many years got great results with it.
Great instructions. Thanks
You are welcome, glad it helped
Nice lean-to. Well done. Don't mind the haters. You're the one getting stuff done. I'm going to do the same thing to mine to shelter my daughter's power wheels.
yes great job, thanks for sharing the knowledge.
I was excited to build a similar project until I realized at age 62 I may not have enough time left in my life to finish it. Plus I would need to find some nails and a screw driver. However the explanation the steps for this project was great.
62 is quite young you are never to old to start a project
This man's making a spot to store his lawn mower he clearly never uses lol xD
:O
A tip : you can watch series at Flixzone. Been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Ishaan Kane Yea, have been using Flixzone for months myself =)
Liked and shared this video your voice is very soothing thanks for the lesson!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome, man! Good job. I need something very similar
Awesome, hope this helped a bit.
Thank you! I just couldn't tell how or where to screw in the rafters. And this must be a 4' x 8' shed? I love it.
Good job
Give a man a hammer, saw, screwdriver and a pair of scissors and he will build a lean to. Amazing job!
Really Informative great video
Very nice
Thanks for the info. Y'all have to give him credit for mocking that up himself and building it using manual tools. End product looks good. Perhaps consider storing your (hopefully) NEW AIR COMPRESSOR and accessories in there since you built such a substantial addition (with back wall and gate). Then park the push mower behind it and throw a $5 Harbor Freight tarp over it. replace tarp yearly. Good job and I'll post my attempt at a shed add-on soon for public scrutiny.
I enjoy this Video totally
Nice shed man
Thanks!
Good job 👍. Just a few tips if you don't mind me saying. Use a pencil (not a pen), get a screw tip, don't use hack saws and metal blades for wood. Awesome ingenuity though. You made it harder on yourself. You deserve to treat yourself to the right tools.
Oh and get a razor knife. It'll make your life easier
hope mine will look like that. doing it this weekend! wish me luck!
Good Luck, I'm sure you can pull it off.
My anxiety is starting to act up again watching this video. Nevertheless I have to give it to this guy. That's what you call dedication...
Having the right tools for the job is beneficial but, as demonstrated here, not mandatory. After all, it's not the tools that make the man, but the other way around.
His mom is going to kill him for using her good sewing scissors ✂️ .
Good job 👍👌 bro dam good job
Great job ... but I assume you did not leave the top exposed like that ? did you ? did you finish off the top and by the door - If that's the finished product - a little wind driven rain and everything inside gets soaked .
Suuuuper helpful!!!!!!
did you really leave the top of the sides exposed?...and the space beside the door and the lock...?
dude i tried but when you starting cutting that 2x4 with a hack saw i just couldn't you are killing me!!!
much props dude. haters gonna hate.
My hand hurts watching you place those screws by hand. Nice video and good explanation though.
I never comment on videos but I had too on this video very nice job!!
what's with the screw driver?
Thank you for the great instructions you provide. I really enjoy your videos.
However, I have a question. How do we weather proof the sides which back up against the back wall. I’m anchoring my shed to the wall of my house. I have a brick veneer house, but the concern would be the same regardless of it being weatherboard or brick veneer. My concern is when it rains directly in that area (back house wall) or when the wind pushes the rain in that direction, it will rot out the back wall. Does anyone here have any ideas or suggestions to deal with this? Thank you guys in advance 🙏
Damn you can have my Harbor frieght 20% off coupon
we don't need no stinkin made in china ccp virus tools
The corner trim you used is for interior use... Using 1x4 trim and overlapping one to create an "L" over the corners would have been better.
Great instructional. I think this is great for a DIY er who may not have a ton of tools or knowledge. My Amazon shed is falling apart after only a year. So I’m considering this type of lean to. Looks like yours will last way longer! How’s it holding up? I love the roof details you got in there. Seen many others not as descriptive. Thanks!
My wrist hurts just watching you hand turn those screws.
Someone would steal my mower if I built this but awesome video!
You could add a lock to it
Great beginner job. This will teach a lot of does and do not. Only way to learn is to do the work and you did the work. Don’t let the people talking smack put you down. Granted most of the smack is just why you didn’t do this or that. Some people don’t have all the tools or don’t realize they do but you still built it and it turned out okay. Could it have been better? Yes but still good job.
Wow, there's hope for us all.
This guy doesn't use a drill to screw in his screws. Lol. Very interesting technique.
You got it done and probably learned a 100 ways to do it better next time! Good work. Some tips if you want them... Using torx screws will save you time and money. I reuse them over and over again because they do not strip out. Throw that drill and saw in the trash and go buy some corded ones if you don't want to invest in a set of batter powered Milwaukee or Dewalt. Using low quality/dull tools will waste money and get you hurt in the long run. Now excuse me while I go built a lean to off my garage.
I can't believe he used a screwdriver for all of those screws 😮
This might be the most ghetto shed I've ever seen but it was certainly built with love. Lol. Respect to him for making this vid. And also for looking like Waldo @ 13:15.
The guy doesn't use screws and uses scissors to cut everything you can imagine lol. What's crazy is that he does seem knowledgeable.
I’m doing a 3’x8’ lean to off of my existing 8’x10’ shed. If I put the upper 2x4 on the back at @55” then how high can I make the short side to make the roof?
My drill broke bro, you mind if I borrow you and your screwdriver? BTW the job turned out great. Looks good!
i love how easy the plans are in *WoodBlueprints. Com* to understand and the step-by-step videos they have. Makes getting material really easy
base board???
13:30 where's Waldo.
BURIED UNDER THE SHED....IT WOULDN'T PUT THE LOTION ON
Wow, I must overbuild everything!... Lmao
We must build bomb shelters.......I agree on overbuilding everything.
Good work. Any particular reason why you used screws on the siding (attached to frame) instead of nails? You used nails for pretty much everything else. Just curious if there was a particular reason.
Screws Rarely back out, Nails are prone to at some point.......
What kind of siding is that?is it called wood siding?looks like luon
It's a lot easier to buy a blue Walmart tarp for your mower or even a Hefty Lawn & Leaf bag.
Can't deny that.
You put mcgyver to shame & rambo 👍👍
did you really leave the top ends of the shed exposed?
Wish you lived next door. also you could borrow my panel saw ! (better than a hack saw )!!
Apart from the obvious like top soil under you're slabs having a cordless drill and using a screwdriver having a utility knife and not using it .I could go on but I have to ask with no disrespect intended is why you put the door on back to front ?
A pen for marking instead of a pencil! 🤷🏻♂️
Definitely a shed that jack built.....
❤️
great entertainmeant
This guy's forearms are gonna look like popeye after this shed. Lol screwing into 4x4s is not a good time
I’m wondering why didn’t you finish building around the door and back?
my first thoughts ... exactly
well you go me with the 'foundations' lol am no expert, but surely the loosely laid blocks on mud will move at some point lol
How to make a video that inspires others to make a gofundme account for the creator of the video(to buy proper tools). But as has been said before a great build with minimal tools. Painful and inspirational all in the same breath.
Ha, very nice, just make sure you subscribe, that is all the donation I need, and I am buy better tools as I go on.
Wow
4:39 your drill was in reverse lol
Ur drill will drive ur screws some what faster
Sheila Mclaughlin send him a drill bit. Thanks
