DIY Shed Build with No Experience (Part 1) — What Could Go Wrong?

We’ve never built a structure before… but here we are, trying to build a shed from scratch with no experience—on land we don’t even technically own yet.

In this first episode of our shed build series, we scrape together a gravel foundation, frame the floor, and try to keep everything square and level while figuring it out as we go.

This shed might seem like a small project, but to us, it’s the first step toward learning how to build our dream home on this property in the mountains of North Carolina.

Whether you’re planning your own backyard workshop or just love watching people learn through trial and error, welcome to the start of something big.

👷‍♂️ This week:
– We scramble to meet a surprise gravel delivery with 15 minutes’ notice
–We level our first-ever “foundation” using hand tools and guesswork
–The lumber delivery goes sideways—and we have to unload it all ourselves
–Isabella returns home just in time to watch the chaos unfold
–We frame and square the floor using nothing but basic tools and a lot of trial and error
–Advantech subfloor goes down, and the shed finally starts to feel real
