Built an entire shed with reclaimed lumber, part one

This was a pretty big goal for me. I really wanted a shed to go next to my greenhouse. After harvesting a ton of lumber, I was finally able to build it. No matter what, the shed was going to cost some money. But by using all reclaimed lumber, I was able to substantially bring down the cost. In total I probably spent about $500 in materials for this shed. Externally, it measures about 11ft x 10ft. The first thing I had to do was clear and level the area where the shed will go. Then I laid out some pavers, which only cost about $30. Then I set out several 4x4 posts on their sides. On top of those 4x4s I stapled in some painters plastic to serve as a moisture barrier. On top of that, I set some plywood sheets that are 1.25in thick, very good material. After the floor was set, I had to get started on building to the walls. These were made from 2x4s that I got from several different locations. This shed is pretty big, so it required a lot of lumber. But I only had enough lumber to set the studs at 24in apart. I built this shed to be joined next to the greenhouse. So they share a wall and a doorway. I really look forward to sitting in the shed with the door to the greenhouse open. That is probably the ideal shed office set up for me. After I put up a couple walls, I began setting up the room beams. Those boards had to span the length of the shed to reach from wall to wall. Once the frame was assembled, I noticed that everything was very wobbly. So I had to put on some wood siding. But before I could put on any siding, I stappled in some painters plastic over the walls. I only put in a few large pieces of wood siding, just enough to reduce the wobbling. I also put in some blocks in between the studs. I didn't have any help, so I had to just throw the plywood onto the roof, which was a little dangerous. After I screwed down those boards, it the roof got a lot safer. And of course, I covered the roof in painters plastic. It is a very cheap material, and hopefully it lasts a long time. At that point, I just finished covering two of the walls in wood siding, which was just made from fence boards and some old barn wood siding. It might look a little rough, but those walls face the fence. The last thing I did in this first phase of the project was to install a large beam to support all the roof beams. It seems pretty sturdy to me. Then I had to take a short break while we got some rain. I will show the continuation of this shed build in the next video. We named this channel "We Found These" because these are all projects that we found. We actually used to live in an apartment that had an alley in the back, and we used to find discarded furniture out there and I would just carry it home on a skateboard. We hope to inspire people to try these same kinds of projects. If we can find these, I'm sure anyone can. And if we can find ways to repair and update furniture on a budget, I'm pretty sure other people can, too. You can find us on IG under the name wefoundthese, and Tiktok under the name wefoundthese . We used to have a website by the same name, but we let it go. Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/kid-taro/sunset-... License code: N3GLOBV8NXSCHRIQ
