Build a Shed - Frame a Basic Shed Wall - Video 4/17

Time to frame a basic shed wall. One side of the shed is a basic wall with no windows or doors. This is the easiest type wall to build. I am using a treated 2x4 for the bottom and untreated lumber for the studs and top. First a but the bottom and top to equal lengths. Then I set them side by side so they are together. Using a speed square and tape measure I mark every 16" on center across the two boards. I then cut down the studs to the length that I need. In my case I wanted the walls to be 8 foot tall. So my studs needed to be cut down to accommodate the bottom and top boards plus a top plate. Lastly once the wall has been assembled I use liquid nails and a combination of screws and nails to hold the wall in place.
