I tore down my steel shed and built a nice wooden one. It was built on the same footprint so the electric is already there and ready to go. My question I'm trying to figure out is after I drill the hole into the wood for the conduit body, what can I use to seal the space. When I had the steel...

Running existing electric into my wood shed I tore down my steel shed and built a nice wooden one. It was built on the same footprint so the electric is already there and ready to go. My question I'm trying to figure out is after I drill the whole into the wood for the conduit body, what can...

That's all done already, the cosmetic trim was where I was having the issue, all the framing is done, I now have to roof and put the soffit on. I was planning on using the very small soffit. The whole project is a 10x14 shed. Do you find it necessary to put in any ventilation. I was going to...

Hi Mudbone, Thanks for your input, I will probably use soffit, and suggestions that you had?

Kevin, Thank you so much, the measurement was on the money and I was able to complete it this afternoon.

I am finishing up my shed, I had premade trusses made, the drawing of the trus is attached. I'm putting fascia pine in the same angle as the truss but can't seem to get the cut angle to be perfect. The one rafter is coming up at a 10/12 slope and it needs to be joined to the next piece which...

Thanks everybody, I've been searching like crazy to find where I can buy pre-made gambrel roof trusses. The 2 huge lumber yards by me can't get them and I didn't even check Home Depot or Lowes b/c I don't think they have them. I thought it would be a simple search online but it's not. Does...

Not exactly, I know that I don't want too much overhang and that the shed is going to be 10ft wide. Measurements that I found that are classified as a "standard" gambrel were 28 31/32 over 12 for the lower rafters and 4 31/32 over 12 for the upper rafters. I'm not sure if these numbers helps...

Hi, I'm building a 10x14' shed and I'm going to purchase the pre-made trusses. I have my material list all set except for figuring out how to determine the amount of plywood I need to cover a standard gambrel roof on this size shed. I've googled calculators and gambrel plans, etc, but can't...
