And so the building work begins. In this first episode I start the build and get the ground prepared and the stud work of the floor joined up.
This was filmed over a few months while I was waiting on planning permission so the flow is not perfect.
The next ones will be far better so please bear with me.

This build is only possible because of each and every one of you. Every view and every subscribe has led to this. Thank you
Are you going to put in an electric supply ?
. morning Mark im on my wood working mistake journey lol😂
How thick was the insolation compared to the wood.
Thanks bill
Awesome looking forward to this build..🎉
Great vid…lovely on screen presence. Thank you.
Just recently discovered this channel and I've been making my way through your videos. Really liking what your doing Mark, thanks for providing the educational entertainment. I'm a little sad to see the shed go, but excited to see what happens next.
I didn't know whether to post on an old video, but I have a couple of tips you might like. The first one is to do with shed foundation (so is a little late, but all the same). You don't necessarily need the MOT in the bottom. A channel called "Proper DIY" has done a video demonstrating this called "How to Save Time & Money by using a little known Civil Engineering technique in the garden". (I don't think Youtube will let me post links). That video, and the channel is worth a look.
Also, to get your drill level without a drill press you can glue a level bubble on your drill. Just clamp your longest bit into a vice (while level), attach your drill and glue on the bubble. Works really well.
Thanks again Mark.
Looks great. May I ask you why you don't elevate your base a bit more to let air going through? Cheers from Canada.
Looking forward to the next stage! Great video!!
Planning permission? I was on the understanding you don't need plannign permission to make a shed as long as it's no more than 50% of your garden – how big is that?
Great video. I was looking at making a shed in my back garden at our new place (garden is massive) and instead of building a base, was thinking of doing it like decking where it's on posts buried in the ground. Sealing the wood under the shed properly to make sure it lasts as long as possible as I know decking doesn't seem to last that long.
Great work so far, and don't sell yourself short. The foundation is the hardest (and most back breaking) part, in my opinion. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build.
That’s a great starting point! Happy for you to be able to double your work space!
As an American, it’s hard to fathom having to bring material through the house to get into the backyard. Maybe a few shots of this in a future video would help some of us western brothers and sisters understand your struggle.
Looking forward to seeing you build your new workshop!🎉🎉
One tool I would highly recommend is a good sunhat. 🌞👨🌾
great to see you are get a new shop
Awesome, great work.
Why did you need planning permission, a wooden shed is a temporary building surely? I have been out of the building loop for a while so I am out of date regarding current regulations, and naturally curious.
Well done, Mark. That's a lot of hard work for one person, especially in the recent hot weather. Looks good so far. I know from personal experience that laying concrete flags is not easy at all. I take it the new workshop will have an electrical supply, on it's own circuit?
Beautiful backyard! Looking forward to watching this build and I'll be building alongside you…except I'm contracting it out so mine won't be as entertaining or informative
Well done but can’t understand why you would lay a patio under a shed, I just lay geo tech fabric and dense concrete pads then DPC on pads only no need to line whole floor joists provided you keep 150 mm above ground and keep ventilated space. This is the standard for houses let alone sheds.
Wow absolutely amazing hats off to you for doing that all by yourself and having to carry all the stuff through your house can’t wait to see it finished. So happy for you 👏👏👏
