Renner_construction Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Hey that's totally understandable. At least you left an overhang, that will work good enough with some aluminum fascia along with some Housewrap.

Renner_construction Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Haha I do everything.. Lots of siding, roofing, framing. New and remodel.I tend to notice a lot of things that people do on jobs.I've just realized it's the small things that set us guys apart when bidding jobs. Lots of competition.

Renner_construction Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 But that shed is legit. I was looking at your roof framing details. I especially like how you made those 2x blocks to hold the end of the rafters on the double top plate.

torontotoolman Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Dude, your already way ahead of me on shed building cause I don't know the first thing since I am not a contractor. I am impressed with what you accomplished by yourself man. I assume that you have 2 by 4's screwed into the bottom of the shed, and that is what is resting in those concrete foundation pieces? I agree with what has been said, that is a lovely overhang, and you did such a good job the mom should be able to hang some hanging plants off it. Because the shed is so small, I assume this is just to store gardening tools and such.I would like to get a bigger shed built in my backyard to store my tractor and some other shit, so that I can have more room in the shop. I don't got the funds to buy a shed kit, and even if I did, I would have to get schooled somewhere cause I don't know the first thing lol. Goodjob man, can't wait to see the finnished pics when its all painted up and shit is stored in it. The base of the shed is framed like a floor of a house i used 2x8. 4 on the out side witch is the square base and are sitting on the blocks then i ran 3 more 2x8s ever 16 inch nailed them in and used joist hangers i didnt use screws as a framer we build everything with nails nails will bend and move with the shed/ house as screws will snap over time then i layded a tounge n groove subfloor down and built the walls... and thanks a lot i feei if i can frame a house and thats wat i do everyday i can frame a shed lol but ya the over hang was really the fist time i did the facia and gable over hang myself at work i usually cut for the roof as im still a newbie in the framing world but a shed being a smaller version i handled the roof pretty well for being on my own no pro with me... Thats how i did the base Sent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
