That's the to learn, when you are humble enough to explain with head high. Don't be embarrassed by your mistakes. At list others will learn. Very good my friend. Keeping doing the way you do it. I'm learn to do right, by someone understands they mistakes. God bless.

Thank you for making this video. I'm similar in trying to figure things out on my own, so I appreciate the intelligence of a 'self taught' do it yourself-er. The comments that are critiquing this, well, that's how you learn! It won't be perfect and you may use stuff you don't need, but now you know for anytime in the future 😊 everyone is so afraid of not being perfect. Safety is crucial, but I enjoy seeing people figure things out. I would have tumbled off the top trying to film, lol.

Thank you for the first tutorial I have found that actually fits into a small budget! We want to do something very similar for our outdoor area, you have given us the confidence to give it a go!

It's 2024 of March, and this has been very informative. Thank you. Now if you can come over to Tacoma and help, it would be super duper very informative. Haha. Thanks

Love this! live in the northeast Texas. Hired a local handyman back in 2009 to build something similar, in my it was a simple DIY patio cover inside the corner where the roof had not been extended over the back door. Very similar design, but mine only consisted of the bare bones wood structure only. He constructed an utter piece of junk for me, I know he charged me way too much, ( Over a thousand, between 1.5 and 3, but I don't remember). I was disgusted when he finished, then asked me for more money to put the felt tar, flash and metal cover on. I knew I had been taken advantage of, so I said no and decided to accept the basic as a loss. I did not know DIY back then. I ended up having to demolish it.

Watching you build this, all I kept thinking about was how difficult it would be to find anyone charging anything to come anywhere near the thought and professionalism that you have put into your work building that.

I’m a DIY guy and learn lots from others videos. I learned a great deal of nuances that I haven’t thought of before. Awesome work👊🏽

Nice job. same project I plan to do and keep free standing, no attachment to house. Appreciate your ambition to tackle this project without guide plans which I have done before to build my 10 x 12 shed. The rafters and double door build were the more challenging yet rewarding tasks. Amazing how focus and creativity work hand in hand. Thanks for the explanatory video.

Turned out good! Exactly what I’m trying to do right now. Thanks for the tips and showing the learning process.

Good job. Thanks for sharing your experience.

This was really helpful, as someone who knows nothing and wants to accomplish something similar!

it looks well constructed but im wondering if you added anything to the sides to keep the rain out? I would think any amount of wind would carry the rain in from the sides..
