Building a Workshop Shed In The UK From Scratch

  • Building a workshop has been a life long dream for me. Now, back in the UK. I'm building a new workspace from the ground up from scratch.
    For those with questions watch this Q&A too get more info: • Building a Workshop In...
    Any Questions you have please leave them in the comments and I'll do my best to get back to them plus I'll add them to and tips video that will come in the future.

    Airtable: bit.ly/35RQ1ok

    Questions:
    How much was it and how big is it?
    So keeping tools our of the pricing In total it came to around £1200 But this includes extra wood to make workbenches too. It's 2.9m by 2.9m . Has a close to 7-degree pitch and highest point is 2.49m. Keep in mind that I have completely over-engineered this workshop for 3 reasons. 1. I'm in Scotland and I get a lot of rain so I had to have a pitch on my roof. 2. I'm close to the sea and there is a field with an unobstructed prevailing wind so I get gusts of wind up to gale force 9 pretty regularly. I had to keep room for 100mm rockwool to make sure I could stay warm and more importantly that I would not bug the neighbours too much.
    Where is the power?
    All electrics are now in using office conduit. I got a pro for this as I'm not going to take responsibility for electrical work till I've got some real training. I'm sure you can see the conduit in some of my other videos. It goes right around the workspace.
    Your Door is upside down...
    Funny story really...
    Yup that is pretty much how I got the door plus I only really had one option to mount it as I wanted it to open outward to give me a little bit more room for larger projects in the future. Thanks for the heads up thou. I did spend about 20 minutes just looking at the door to think of which way round I should mount the freaking thing.... but oh well it works and it only cost me £5 so beggars can't be choosers.

    It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.

    Well this is good inspiration for the day I've got the skills to pull down the existing workshop-sized shed I have in my garden and rebuild it so it's actually insulated and functional. That day is probably a year or more away but I can dream at least. Cracking video

    As a quick insight to my background and knowledge of coatings, I was a spray painter at Disneyland in california for a decade or so but with the paint department for twenty-six years.
    If you can get your shop at least three or four feet high and it can be SAFELY blocked up and secured I recommend you rent an airless spray painter and apply the coating that way - we used bitumastic on the lower exterior surface of the 'submarines' we had, and inside of the trains steam tanks as well, and several other areas where deterioration due to water/rust or rot were a concern.
    But two things to know is, NEVER "test" the pressure of an airless gun like painter's do with an air supplied spraygun - YOU WILL LOSE YOUR FINGERS! as the pressure will flay (cut) your skin from the bone and this happened to one of our "Journeyman" painters no-less.
    The second thing is some people are VERY sensitive to bitumastic coming in contact with their skin so make sure you use a heavy duty spray suit, rubber gloves and proper spray mask if you decide to do this your self but if you don't want to spray it, get a brush similar to the ones used to wash a car with because they cover much better than a mop and will be much more manageable than a mop will be.
    Best of luck and if you have any questions contact me at:

    • @Keep-Making
      @Keep-Making  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Danny, I'm so glad to hear you like the style that I'm going for here. In case you used the tape yourself it's not your usual type of tape. It's tyvek moisture-resistant reinforced membrane tape. It's probably one of the most expensive materials I bought for the build. Once again thanks and i'm so glad you enjoyed the effort =)

It is a great one of a kind guide for building better sheds and woodworking without the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my good mate called Gray at last got excellent results with it.

  • @Stemlocksecurity
    @Stemlocksecurity 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Excellent workshop mate 👍🏻 bit of friendly advice though that codelock is not suitable for that purpose ideally use a 5 lever BS sash lock, codelock Is ok for interior office door but not for exterior door, Also hinges need replacing for more heavy duty. Sashlock will provide a lot more security. Other than that it's absolutely spot on what you've done as your first workshop

    Jonathan, in all the years of extensive daily youtube viewing, you're the second producer I have contacted. I hope you are using your workshop for video production. Never have I watched such a potentially prosaic video where the production has been so marvellous. A little attention needed to splice the music seamlessly, but, nevertheless, a pleasure to view. So much so, I have lost the thread and will need to watch again, and perhaps again. I am smiling from ear to ear as I listen through headphones. Awesome! Watching again will be far from a chore.
    Not forgetting to mention how good your workmanship is on the build. Very impressed that you actually showed the dismantling of the old shed, which is an excellent touch - seeing the build process in reverse.
    Gonna watch again now, and my wife's invited this time. She's a real rock fan, so don't know how she'll react.
    Thanks a lot.

    I watch a LOT of maker content. And I know most people are doing it as a passion. But I learn SO much and it's all for free. So when there is someone/ something I like I always try to support them by using their affiliate links. In your case, I've checked the description for the blue thing on your driver, the Permavent and the tar paint and you don't have any. So just wanted to mention in case you want to look in to it.
    Also, although it's slim on details, the editing is fantastic!

It's 2.9m by 2.9m . Has a close to 7-degree pitch and highest point is 2.49m. Keep in mind that I have completely over-engineered this workshop for 3 reasons. 1. I'm in Scotland and I get a lot of rain so I had to have a pitch on my roof. 2. I'm close to the sea and there is a field with an unobstructed prevailing wind so I get gusts of wind up to gale force 9 pretty regularly. I had to keep room for 100mm rockwool to make sure I could stay warm and more importantly that I would not bug the neighbours too much. Let me know what other info I can provide to help you out. ( p.s. have a merry Christmas)

    Great video BTW, very well made. I'm unsure what do do with my flat roof. For extra water tightness should I vapour barrier the roof or use some left over dpm I have? If so what does my felt bind to, only the vapour barrier/dpm? Won't it flap about? I don't really want to roof nail the felt as I dont want to put holes into the felt? How do i get around this? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

      Honestly speaking this was one of of my biggest consequences too. My fall back / playing it safe option was to use black jack all weather roof coating it's a crazy rugged bitumen paint and with 2 - 3 coats of that stuff and your roof should be good for a solid few years... I hope that comes in handy. Ans keep safe if you so use it. It's some sinky, sicky stuff. Eye protection and full separator is a MUST! (Also mix it very well and a stiff large brush works best in my opinion)

      Hey Stephen, HA! ya I was able to get the ms. to help me out for a bit. But she was quite busy with work so I had to do most of it, unfortunately. But hay at least I got a helping hand. As for plans... Well, i'm sorry to say that they are not public just yet. Are you in a rush? In a little while, i'll be doing a few videos on the plans and how to do it all in blender. As for cost-wise... I don't think so.... The Kingspan is actually quite cheap. I think the roof was the dearest, the felt, glue and the blackjack all together are quite costly but worth it... Take a look at the Q and A video as there is quite a bit of info in there and the link in the description of that video has a list of everything I used.
      Good luck on the build and I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😁

    • @Keep-Making
      @Keep-Making  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hey James, I'm so happy to hear that you have enjoyed the video. I did do rough planning on paper and then jumped right into rhino 3d which is my preferred modelling program. Yup I spend a good few days planning out that labelling system. I wanted to be able to cut everything out and then put it together like one big DIY flatpack. As for the plans, it's not that I don't want to share them, I just know I'm inexperienced and there are going to be flaws all over this build, that quite frankly I don't know about. I did try my best to get as many joiners and architects friends to take a look at it but even still. So the idea that someones follow these plans to the letter and they have an issue at any point. I would feel quite responsible. Having said all of that... If you want to just take a look at it, I'm more than happy to share them out, as long as your well aware to take these plans not just with a grain of salt but with a heaped spoon. Sound good?

    Regarding your breathable membrane and insulation....This is only a question, not some smart statement, but is there not supposed to be a air gap between your outermost timbers and the insulation to allow for cool air transfer and avoid sweating? I'm a bit confused by some conflicting information, Is your shed staying dry? Cheers man.

      Cheers Daz, i'm glad you enjoyed it. Honestly speaking, I just followed what a few joiners told me to do.... But long and the short there is not too much diffrence. You could argue that putting the walls on the floor they have more surface area for support. But in all reality on as long as you screw it down well I would imagen you would be good. I know that for home construction in the UK they seem to put the walls ontop of the floors. But not really sure why. Good luck with the project.
