How to build a 8x8 shed roof.

Check out the first part of the project to learn how to build the frame of the 8 8 shed. Build two 96 wide by 72 tall side walls from 2 x4. Build front and back walls 89 wide by 72 tall in the same. Fasten the truss by driving 8d finishing nails at an angle down through the board just above the birdsmouth notch and into the underlying wall plate.

Use 3 nails for each side. Attach the end rafters to the wall plates of your shed frame. Use your completed floor as a work surface to build your walls. Work with attention and make adjustments to the design and overall dimensions if you want to get the job done in a professional manner.

Nail together the floor joists on 16.
