DIY Shed Build (Part 2) — We Tried to Raise the Wall… and Failed

This week, we tried to raise the first wall of our shed… and it didn’t go so well.

It was a scary moment—heavy wall, bad leverage, and our dog Oso just inches from being in the wrong place at the wrong time. We thought we were ready. We weren’t. But like everything else in this project, we’re learning as we go.

In this episode, we take you through the process of framing and raising our first walls—what went wrong, how we recovered, and what the experience taught us about building smarter, not faster.

We’re documenting every step of our DIY homestead journey as we turn a raw piece of land in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina into our family’s forever home.

If you’re into building from scratch, mountain living, and raising kids with dirt on their shoes—we’d love to have you along for the ride.
