DIY Small Shed | Cheap & Easy Using Minimal Tools

🔨 Start Your Next Project Using A DIY Woodbrew Guide: https://www.woodbrew.tv/project-plans

A DIY small shed that’s cheap & easy to build using minimal tools. This shed would make the cutest playhouse or home office! We turned ours into a man cave & bike storage shed. Even though the shed is small, we were able to maximize the space inside for all of our cycling gear. This shed cost only $700 and only took two hours to assemble. We chose to spruce the shed up by adding a treated deck for it to sit on and lining the walls with Plywood and Decor. The total cost came to around $1700 and could easily be completed over a weekend.

Rubbermaid® does not recommend hanging anything onto the walls except Rubbermaid® shed accessories. Any modifications to the product will void Rubbermaid’s Limited Warranty. For an easier option, Rubbermaid® offers a variety of accessories, also available at The Home Depot, that you can use to hang items on the wall, from bikes to tools to supplies and more!

    it is been a while since your last video… glad to know that everything’s ok with you



  2. Mayday's Custom Woodworks on September 1, 2021 at 10:00 pm

    Very nice! Good job guys. A home depot sponsorship is pretty cool.



  3. Samuel Breaux on September 1, 2021 at 10:01 pm

    Are you guys worried about wind? You were both able to push it back to it’s final home, and I know y’all had some wind damage in your area not too long ago. Did you need to do anything to secure it to the deck at least, or are you confident in the added plywood and interior items weighing it down? I live in an area that typically gets 1-2 hurricanes a year, that’s why I ask.

    Does the door header that says “left” go to the left looking at the doors from the outside or inside?



  5. Google Sucks on September 1, 2021 at 10:06 pm

    What is the straight edge you guys used to cut the ply??



  6. Sandra Moore on September 1, 2021 at 10:09 pm

    so cool watching yall put it together. I might even build a space for a larger shed once again thanks



  7. Hey I'm a Maker on September 1, 2021 at 10:15 pm

    A shed would be nice. Then I wouldn’t have bikes all over the shop! Nice work!



  8. DelaMonique on September 1, 2021 at 10:16 pm

    Nice! Can you tell me the size of the deck?



  9. Guy Bowers on September 1, 2021 at 10:16 pm

    My youngest son just bought his first home a 1916 that we are remodeling and the two of you remind me of him and his girlfriend who are always helping each other. Your doing some great projects and look like you are having a good time together doing them



  10. Scott Morris on September 1, 2021 at 10:18 pm

    Good to see you guys. Its been a while. Ad a LED bar light above desk. Battery powered or Solar Charged.



  11. J P on September 1, 2021 at 10:19 pm

    Both good looking Boots



  12. MaxK DIY M on September 1, 2021 at 10:19 pm

    I did something similar and the plastic walls warped with the heat and weight of the items hung etc, it was a few things too, like drills and combo squares.



  13. justinart24 on September 1, 2021 at 10:20 pm

    Very cool! Now I need to go to Home Depot and buy one!! Great video!



  14. BA Reeve on September 1, 2021 at 10:20 pm

    Looks great! Are you moving it to the new house?



  15. Donald SELCHOW on September 1, 2021 at 10:21 pm

    I think that the plywood is a great idea but how did you attach it to the shed walls?



  16. Ted Butts on September 1, 2021 at 10:23 pm

    How did you attach the plywood to the sides and back of the shed?



  17. James Buchanan on September 1, 2021 at 10:24 pm

    How did you attach the plywood to the walls.



  18. Dana Owen on September 1, 2021 at 10:25 pm

    Nice to see you both again. Realy nice shed.



  19. Robert Birch on September 1, 2021 at 10:26 pm

    This is great love this!



  20. Bill Parco on September 1, 2021 at 10:28 pm

    I will say for anyone who’s thinking of buying one, these things really are pretty bombproof when up. Ours has been out in direct sun for 6 yrs now and isn’t even faded. Well made product.



  21. MicroGamingRepairs on September 1, 2021 at 10:29 pm

    This shed is a piece of junk. Video makes it look easy but trust me its not. Alot of panels on mine do not line up properly



  22. Wickens Wicked Reptiles on September 1, 2021 at 10:31 pm

    very helpful! thanks guys!



  23. Bexar Builds on September 1, 2021 at 10:34 pm

    Glad y’all refinished the inside with plywood. Did y’all just screw the plywood in from the outside?



  24. E U on September 1, 2021 at 10:36 pm

    The problem I have with plastic sheds after a few years of sun, rain, wind that it cracks, warp, fade and falls apart.



  25. chrisanthony144 on September 1, 2021 at 10:36 pm

    Thanks for the vid! Question: how did you attach the plywood panels to the plastic shed walls as its not shown?



  26. S Pauley22 on September 1, 2021 at 10:36 pm

    Off the top of your head do you remember the measurements on the decking? Wanting this same size.. turned out awesome!



  27. Alan Murphy on September 1, 2021 at 10:37 pm

    What is the name of the guide you are using with the circular saw to make those long cuts??



  28. jltolli on September 1, 2021 at 10:37 pm

    details on the music? i dig the vibe…



  29. Tavirrias Marquez on September 1, 2021 at 10:38 pm

    Mine was destroyed with 25 mph wind..!!!



  30. Jay Red on September 1, 2021 at 10:40 pm

    I hope home depot sponsored the wood also hahaha



  31. Carlos Reyes on September 1, 2021 at 10:46 pm

    Its a lot of times the people ask about how you put the playwood at the walls… but never answare. Just reply the questions yall want. That’s rude



  32. Bruce Whitman on September 1, 2021 at 10:46 pm

    Hey guys, where do we put the unsolicited comments and questions about “hurricane proofing” this? (Yes. I know there is very little that is actually hurricane “proof”)



  33. Randy Om on September 1, 2021 at 10:48 pm

    No door assembly viewing. [sigh]



  34. Joni English on September 1, 2021 at 10:48 pm

    what Smart Watch are you Wearing ?
    Good Video BTW



  35. Dan Prudlow on September 1, 2021 at 10:48 pm

    Curious on what fasteners you used to attach the plywood to the walls?



  36. Charles Holland on September 1, 2021 at 10:49 pm

    Bikes are too beautiful for a shed. Lol. Mine stay in my house as decoration! Awesome shed though!



  37. Dustin Gomes on September 1, 2021 at 10:54 pm

    How did you attach the plywood to the walls, I know others have asked as well



  38. Jim Stewart on September 1, 2021 at 10:54 pm

    Good to see y’all back! Happy new year!



  39. GoopyGum on September 1, 2021 at 10:55 pm

    Wow, I work for Home Depot but I’d love to make sponsored videos for them. They pay their workers pretty decently and we also all have a company profit share, pretty nice for a company in these times. Obviously I have issues with them but for what they are doing they are pretty nice.



  40. Joe R on September 1, 2021 at 10:55 pm

    I’ve found what I think will work u see my deck for lawn equipment. Specs show it being a little over 8’ tall. Deck is well above that. Any issues you foresee? Support posts give me plenty of room regarding 7X7 size. Did you anchor it to the decking?



  41. Steve Sirica on September 1, 2021 at 10:56 pm

    This is a great idea. I have one of these for storage at my camper site. Did you use short screw or glue to attach wood to walls?
