    How Not to Build a Shed

    I saw a bunch of pictures of this building project before I saw these videos & it's funnier if you see the pictures first. Unfortunately I can't find the pictures again.
    I remember NBH started a thread during the first week of PFA existing asking for advice on building a house & it's all I could think of as I looked at the pictures & watched the videos.





    I have no idea how this didn't collapse during construction especially the roof sheathing & shingling. Enjoy.

    If I can find the pictures again I will post them because they are hilarious. BTW, ever wonder how many sheets of OSB you can fit into a minivan? Watch the first video to find out.

    Fishing for bubs? He doesn't build sheds, he fixes grocery carts for a living.

    I did a little searching....is this it? I'm too tired and lazy right now to link in the pictures, maybe someone else can do that if they have time and if this is really the shed in question:

    Nice flooring. Just overlap the plywood so no need for cuts? Why didn't I think of that?

    Nice straight roofline. I'm sure the shingles will take that slight wave out.

    Okay, I had to update this with a few more photos for our amusement. If you haven't read the thread thru Gordman's link, I high recommend it.

    Looks not too bad from this angle:

    Yup, I was right. That wave in the roofline is hardly noticable with the shingles on:

    Good thing he hid this as the backside otherwise people might question his building talents: BTW, I love the fascia.

    I just had to update this thread for those not following the original thread here:
    http://www.bcsportbikes.com/forum/sh...s-I-don-t-even.....

    Here's a song someone wrote & great photoshop. I should mention the guy who built the shed is Korean & is why the photoshops are predominately about Kim Jong Un.

    To sung to the theme of Gilligan's Island.

    ust sit right back and you'll hear a tale
    A tale of a fateful build
    That started from this tiny town
    So far no one’s been killed

    The mate was a mighty building man
    The helper brave as hell
    Five loads of wood delivered that day
    For a one roomed shed with shelves

    The angles started getting rough
    The axe was swiftly tossed
    If not for the strength of the keystone wood
    Structural integrity would be lost, integrity would be lost

    The owner painted and locked the door of this finely crafted room
    With pruning shears
    And pounded screws
    The flexing floor……. and the gaps
    No plans or prints
    The ladder and the dull ass axe
    Here inside the Shed of Doom

    I like that one too but I like the fourth pic I posted. That 2X4 may in fact be the keystone block. I think if you pulled that you'd have to yell Jenga & run.

    I have no idea how he got the shingles on without it all coming down.
