Hi Karl. Have been watching you shed building videos. Thank you for doing these. Great tips and recommendations, and how to info. Thank you again 😊

That’s some slick work with the trim homie, great job.

never seen at our depot the green board you are using. watching you cut those pieces all i could do was cringe waiting for the boards to kick back. everything they tell you not to do on YouTube with a table or contractors saw and you were doing it, .
like your build series fun to watch, please be careful though as what you were showing was really dangerous on that contractor saw. you do things on the cheap no doubt, amazing finding those deals for your build. good job.

I'm catching up on your shed series and I have say the way you built your window casings was very impressive! Few would take the time to construct them is such a craftsman style. Excellent job!

Great video. At that point with your wood working knowledge and all the available tools I’d had made a little fancier craftsman style header and sol board lol why not. Either way looks great! Also could’ve used cedar, not much more money and might fair better for longer

After going to all the trouble to install windows and door, why not use Hardie boarding versus vinyl. Much better product, worth the additional cost.

Great series, though your table saw use is frightening.
