      Whatever you have the time to upload I'll be watching John. Thanks for all the effort you put in to entertain us here on TH-cam especially while you're trying to keep up with the business and helping run a household. Keep yourself and your family safe and remember they come before anything.

    OSB is indeed cheap, but... not so safe for kids hands i think. They get splintering hands when they slide there hands over it ;)

    €17 for osb! I wish. $55 US here right now and still rising. BTW really love the off the cuff humor. You should let that John out more often.

    Good effort with the work so far. I brought my tracksaw when I was ripping down OSB for panelling out a garage and workshop. Absolutely brilliant for that kind of work.

    Hi John, was looking to build my own shed and didn’t want to lay a concrete base. Will I be able to use drive in post anchors and have the shed raised slightly off the ground, it’s going in a tight space in the garden and the ground is uneven. Ps built my raised planter and the missus got me to build a garden arch as well!!

    • @JohnMcGrathManInShed
      @JohnMcGrathManInShed  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could dig post holes and fill the bottom with concrete so you have a solid base for your posts and build from there. Good to hear the planters got you more work lol.

    That looks the business.
    Quick question re metre saws. What is the best diameter to get. I see some reasonable priced ones at 8 inch but is it big enough?

    • @JohnMcGrathManInShed
      @JohnMcGrathManInShed  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It really depends what you want to do, for most things 8 inch will be fine.

    This is great John, good to see you out of the shop ! Reminds me of my first shed shop in our tiny back garden. Loved it so much that I brought it with me when we moved and I got my proper shop. Good to have a reminder of where it all started and a bit humbling too.
    I'm sure your daughter will love this new house !

    Brilliant! This came just in time, me an my dad are just about to line an insulate his shed that's roughly the same size to turn into a wee work shop. Good video as always, nice to see someone else is tackling it in much the same way we are about too 👍
