This project is a little different from my usual content but as I needed to build it I thought it would be worth making a video.
I'm not a big fan of multi part videos but there's still a lot left and I reckon the video could've ended up too long. Also I wouldn't have got the video out for another 10 days or so. Making it in to two parts seemed to make sense.
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

This book is Awesome! I love the Lean-To-Shed the most (page 98). The plan czcams.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR is to attach it to the back of my brick house. I also like how they walk you through the many different steps of construction, which is important for the less experienced like me.
Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos czcams.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!
MUY buena calidad, el texto imagenes. czcams.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO Un manuel muy completo y trabajado. Resulta muy práctico. Para principiantes y profesionales. Lo recomiendo
Best trick I've ever learned for tin/steel siding/roofing is to pre-drill the screw holes with all the sheets stacked on top of each other after trimming to length.... It guarantees uniform placement and means you don't have to use a chalk line on the roof
Thanks for always leaving in your mistakes. The other makers that never make mistakes make me feel like a dummy. Sometimes I think that all I do is to progress with a great deal of planning from stuff up to stuff up. Great build by the way.
You learn much more from the mistakes and kudos to Neil for showing these.
Out of all the wood working and carpentry channels I've seen yours has the best video quality and editing.

Great start to the coop. Just some friendly advice for anyone else tackling a roof project - plywood is rated to be installed perpendicular to the rafters or joists supporting it.
A Ray: true that.... but you’re over thinking it. there was nothing in that coop that was code compliant or even engineered on a prescriptive path - shear value of that roof diaphragm pails to the lack of shear in the walls. Agricultural structures can be built anyway you want
Thanks for going in to such detail! This is a project I need to tackle myself this year.
That’s built well enough for me to have lived in as a kid. I did live in a tac shed (about that size) for a short time as a kid.
I was thinking that I wouldn't mind living in there if it were an alternative airbnb or something
Going to need a new channel called "Pask Paints".
Quite different from the usual. Really nice to see you tackle an outdoors project. I would say “Yes” to the fascia! Careful the goats don’t take over and the chickens go homeless.
2:30 Ahh yes, that first shot of the nailgun after you've oiled it for the day and it sprays you in the face with a fine mist of petrochemicals. My favorite is when I'm sitting there trying to get the angle just right and my mouth is hanging open slightly so that I get a mouthful of filth that I have to then futilely try to rinse out over the next 10 minutes.
It’s happened to the best of us. Took me a longtime to learn not to over oil my guns.
Would it help to put a rag over wherever the oil cones out?
Double Dare Fan - Yes, if you have that kind of foresight. You could also just shoot a random test shot to get the initial oil out. The bigger problem is that extra oil, you can Hydro lock the piston and ruin the seals
@@BiggMo Some guns need a couple extra drops regardless of what the manufacturer says. Didn't take me long to learn how to avoid pinched/rolled o-rings.
Wear your covid 19 mask! Oops i forgot it cuts off 30% of oxygen to the brain and causes more problems than it solves!!!!!
I spent all weekend working on a chicken coop foundation and a modular run... then this video pops up! Love seeing your projects.
Man, I could watch you build anything. Great videos and I learn so much!
Nice to see both of your shop helpers again.
Great build as always 👍👍
Also I want to Thank You, bc your tip on making Patterned Veneer was invaluable! After I started mitering the pieces I was finally able to get good clean shavings with little to no tear out. Now I can confidently say that I know how make patterned veneer, so thank you!
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Love the idea of painting it before you built it..., much much easier and ALWAYS a better job. Thanks for the easy to follow vid. Cheers
that miter saw table location is perfect 👌, loved the colour
Awesome video as always; can’t wait to see part 2.
I think yes, add the fascia (on both the top and bottom) as well as a drip edge (on the bottom at least).
Great progress Neil, looking forward to following along! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
I appreciate your industriousness. Getting me motivated is good thanks
Great watch and i like the color. It would be cool to build in some mouse trap recesses or poison recesses. Never underestimate the critter drive to seek shelter. I wonder what the top critters are in Australia? Birds and snakes? We have birds, coyotes, fox and fox analogs... but the mice make the place gross (and potentially unhealthy to breath in whilst cleaning). Anyway, sweet video!
Hiya Neil, I'm with all those gents that could watch you build anything! Have to say that even for something like a chicken coop, you go all out - no shortcuts! Awesome to see. Regards, Mark
I'd say not 16 on center is a short cut
Oscar Hillier learn metric or shut up fool.
No shortcuts? I’m VERY disappointed this isn’t a scrapwood challenge...
Great job, and your voice is so calm...I kind of needed this today
Nice lookin coop , as my dad would say about the trim bein cut " I don't think those chickens 🐓🐓🐓 will mind ! " lol 😂 👍
Cool dad you got right there lol 😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Excellent! I like how you painted as you went along. Great work!
Ah Goaties, gotta love 'em. We're in the process of setting up a Goat Dairy down here in Tassie. Coop looks good so far, can't wait for the next video with the nesting boxes. I'm in the middle of rebuilding the Coop and foraging area for our girls, as the original one was tiny, and had holes all over where predators could, and mostly likely have gotten in, plus it was made by someone who didn't have very good building skills. Thanks for sharing Neil.
I couldn't dream of having that much space in old England - I sometimes wish my ancestors had been deported too!
damn, I'm just now realizing how wonderful life could be if only one owned a piece of land where you could build something. Wonderfully inspiring video, but also it makes my heart ache every time as I feel like there is no realistic way to achieve this amount of freedom within my lifetime anymore.
Edit: This turned out so beautiful!! Amazing content! It's nice to see this much detail and care put into this henhouse
Slave No. 4028 - You aren't dead yet. I didn't think I would ever have land of mine own. I only have a half acre, but it's mine. I can squeeze 6 chickens and a small coup and 2 8'x8' covered runs on either side of it connected with 2 tunnels from under the hen house located under a big tree.
I can't let my future chickens free range or they will be dead in a week with the amount of predators in my area, but 6 with a max expansion of 12 chickens I can do. I Never thought I would be able to do this.... but there you go. "Never" came in my lifetime 7 years ago.
I am definitely older than you, friend. What I'm saying, you put it out there, look for opportunities, make plans in your head, think about it, do good for others, believe in the Good Lord, and things like this happen. You are breathing.... almost anything is possible. Blessings over you, friend. May your dream come true.
@@americanpatriot7247 Hello dear stranger! Wow, that sounds amazing though!! Thank you so much for your kind and hopeful words (and that you took the time out of your day to write me this, I appreciate it a lot!)
It's very uplifting to read of these unexpected little success stories once in a while, and hear someone say "you can do it!"
I don't know the details but I'm very proud of you for hanging on and achieving what you thought wasn't possible!! God bless you!
That's typical Aussie made!! Always awesome and built like a fortress!! Even their fish are tuff🤙❤️ love those guys
Loved the colour you ended up going with. Just perfect. As always fab job.
Grab a cold one mate. Great job, looking forward to part II
I look forward to new videos from you. I especially like you show when you have made a mistake and how to fix it. Thank you for sharing.
You seem to be able to turn your hand to anything! You must be quite a handy chap to know.
Great job, looking forward to part 2!
Given the effort you've put into the coop, I think you should add the fascia.
+1 It might prevent water blowing in on the ply a little as well

Nicely done Neil! Me & my son are thinking about building a smaller version of that coop. Thanks for the video & I wish that you had plans available............ 😉😉👍👍
Looking good! I have to make one of these myself so this is just the thing I needed.
Milujem krásne veci a tento kurín je dokonalý. Škoda že nie je rozpis materiálu a rozmery, ale snáď to zvládnem. Bude to môj aktuálny projekt na túto jar. Ďakujem za inšpiráciu!
Excellent color choice. 👍
Thanks for the very detailed hint. I was thinking recently how to make a room for growing tomatoes.
Those are some nice and healthy goats, can't believe they weren't nibbling on that frame. Back when I had goats, they would take a bite out of anything, especially something that I had just built.
I wonder if they've made it onto the coop roof by now. You know that's where they want to be.
The goats don’t seem to eat anything like wood or fencing, they always take an interest in anything new though. 😊
One of them is a real climber and used to climb onto a duck house we had which was a decent height. 😊
Excellent build and beautiful back garden. Looks very peaceful. Looking forward to the next one. Hi from around the corner in Newfoundland, Canada. LoL.😎
Awesome and highly instructive video as always. Agree that including mistakes and fixes are extremely helpful. Seeing that land makes me want to return to Australia.
My dad makes sheds for a living, it was awesome to see how you went about stuff!
Way to put those boys to work! Nice build looking forward to part 2
I've never thought to paint the boards before hand. That's a brilliant idea, and I just had to stop and give credit where credit's due.
Good video too.
Nice mitre station! I wasn't here for woodworking ideas but I have been meaning to build myself one so now I'm eyeing up yours!
Them chickens are going to love that coop. True craftsmanship though. I’d simply making one out of 2x4s and 2x3s. Random lumber around the house
We use sand in the laying box and on all surfaces also put a thin layer of sand. The guano (poop) doesn't stick and it's easy to clean w a dust pan and paint scraper. Sift out the laying pox w kitty litter handled sieve. We live in Florida so part of my property is all sand.
Great videos. I got a bit nostalgic when I saw that you are in Yandina. My late brother, Bob McGuire was sales director at the Ginger Factory until his death in 1992.
I have visited from Scotland a couple of times to visit his family in Mapleton.
Looking great on first half mate, loving the structural work indeed. Great video bud 😉
Awesome start to building your Chicken Coop !!!!!!!!!!!
Lots of applications for this......coop, greenhouse, shed, man cave.......
I would be so interested in buying a build plan for this
me as well !

Can not wait for part. It looks great so fine.
I now also got the Bosch Miter Saw, Its fantastic!
Wow love the level of detail and the design! Great work 👍

Hello Mark Tiongco.☺
czcams.com/video/WeriErUeDYk/video.html
Add the facia board, for sure. Nice job Neil!
Thank you for sharing, can't wait for the next video to drop
This is sooo satisfying to watch.
New viewer here, tuned in from an intro from a Scottish neighbor here in Japan. I look forward to going through your back catalog of videos and learning more!
Your big Bosch saw is great! I have one just like it and the table saw that goes with it. They are both great tools.
Great build !!! Can't wait for part 2.
Goats, dogs, chickens, you lucky man! Thanks for sharing!
I just finished building my coup out of pallet wood. I’m still an amateur to woodworking but it came out pretty well. The hardest part was breaking apart the pallet wood in usable pieces and building around the limits of the type of wood I got from the pallets
What a beautiful property you've got!
Thanks very much! 😊
Great looking build...chicks are gonna love it.
Well done Neil. Hopefully happy chickens will mean lots of eggs 🥚
I wouldn't expect anything less from you ! As usual .... another fine job ! :-)
Wonderful comfort for chickens, not everyone has such a Paradise.
As someone who's aunt owned chickens, I would recommend that you wrap the roosts with a bit of old carpet as the chickens can develop a condition called "Bumble Foot" from just having plain wood to walk/rest on!!! 🐓
Great looking coop.
Ficou lindo. Vc é muito criativo e caprichoso. Parabéns!!!!!
Very nice job you did there!
Just a tip for you next chicken cabin, a simple box of like 60cm² to 1m is pretty enough (for 1 ch) if they can go outside , no need to waste as much time and wood, with such large cabin it gonna require more work to clean xS
Excellent job 🇵🇸❤️🕊

“I’m building a chicken coop”
Goats : it’s free real estate !
Goats recognize no authority and no boundaries.
There are many components to creating an amazing design. One resource I found which successfully combines these is the coop magic tactic (google it if you're interested) without a doubt the most useful info that I've seen. Check out this extraordinary website.
If anyone is interested in coop plans the greatest success that ive ever had was by following the Coop Magic Tactic (just google it) without a doubt the most helpful course i've followed.
Great looking chicken run. We are looking for ideas, thank you for the video.
One facia board coming right up! 😏😆🤣
Magnificent job thus far, mate 👍🏽
Hope the chooks love it just as much as the other critters did. lol 😂
Amazing job! Absolutely amazing!
Great project, thanks for sharing!
Just showed my dad your channel today because he’s bored in the hospital. He loves your stuff as much as I do
What a lovely video, very well explained.
My fav maker on YT! Nice work!
Just what I was looking for. Thanks, man.
Nice design and construction.
I'm a simple man, I see chickens getting a home built, I click
Looking forward to the rest of this build
Man, I still don't understand why many CZcamsrs, like you, check the square through the diagonals. Equal diagonals do not guarantee a perfect square, because in the case of the trapezoid, for example, its diagonals are also equal, but their angles are different from 90 degrees.
A big hug from Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Oh you are starting building! It is very interesting! I am waiting for new videos about the building)))
I really enjoy your videos, & always look forward to the next one.
Just bought the mini workbench and vice plans! wish me luck.. I have very few tools to execute them with. Thank you for making them so extensive and clear, its a real bargain :) (even to a student like me)
Awesome! Lucky chooks, I'd live in that!
Very good project ! Love it !
Wow .. you behaving big Chickens out there eh ! ..lol great to watch you build it. Looking forward to the next episode. Thks
Wow great job. I’ll be making this on my land as a community bathroom Even the color is great 👍
I like the paint as you go method, it’s my preferred way to go because I think it provides more protection and it’s easier, IMO.
Very cool chicken coop!
I love your life, land, tools, knowledge, etc. Id assume that you built that cool miter saw-workbench-chest of drawers yourself. Very neat
Bonjour, comme d'habitude formidable travail bien fait, à bientôt. Les animaux sont heureux chez toi 🤩👍👍👍
Really nice vid and awesoom coop. Inspired me to make a smaller version for our own chickens. Really nice!
