Post Beam and Floor Board Installation | Sawmill Shed Build - Episode 4

Post beam and floor board installation is the name of the game today in episode 4 of the sawmill shed build. With much work in previous episodes making the floating shed platform square and level, I finish the job today by adding various width floor boards. I also finish off the last of the 7 vertical posts by standing them up and bracing them in place. I also get ambitious and finish off the two beams at the rear of the sawmill shed.Those beams are special in that they are strengthened with construction adhesive and plywood. Check out some of the little tricks I use throughout the build today to move around heavy beams and tighten up floor board gaps. You'll also notice that every piece of wood that I build with has come directly from my Woodland Mills HM130 without much drying time in between. As a result, all wood you see me building with is considered "green" and has a fairly high moisture content. The wood will shrink and so check out how I only put one nail in the center of each floor board to prevent cracking as the board shrinks. As I'm building today I"ll also point out somethings that I do to keep the posts firmly seated where they should be since this sawmill shed doesn't have a concrete foundation to secure the posts to. Also check out the tip I give for making your floor boards firmly seated on a joist all the way around protrusions like posts that stick up through the floor. Glad everyone is here and surely before long I'll be completing this sawmill shed build as the snow is knocking on my door. Here we go!
