DIY Corrugated Metal And Plywood Interior Walls for Metal Building | Workshop

I thought it was about time I helped my dad clean up and organize his shop I wanted to start in this area where we have some of our cutting drilling and grinding tools my dad has about 75 now and three years ago he found this metal building on Craigslist the previous owners had bought the building had it delivered to their property and never put it up so he drugged at home had a pad poured and then with the help of one of his buddies they got the building put up I've been wanting to build some sort of wall over the white insulation to help protect it when I'm grinding or sanding metal it seems to be pretty fragile and seems to tear really easy I wanted to take the time to clean the area before I built the wall first I cut my pressure-treated sill plate to length to fit between the two steel columns I needed to notch both ends of my sill plate to fit around the anchor bolts for the columns so I used a piece of scrap 2x4 to figure out my measurements and then I transferred those over to the pressure treated sill plate I used a hole saw so that I'd have a nice curve on the backside of my notches I did this on both ends of the sill plate I then took the 2x4 over to the bandsaw and finished clearing out those notches [Music] [Music] when we built a small mezzanine in the shop we had a local Lumber Company deliver this load of two-by-sixes after we got home and saw how bad they were we rejected a load and they came out and delivered another load of two by sixes but didn't want these back so they've been sitting around and I'm hoping I can dig through to find some good enough that I can rip down into some decent lumber for 2x4 studs you can see just how bad some of the Wayne is on these two by sixes but I should be able to rip them down into some decent studs for this project I started out by ripping about an inch off the better side of these two by sixes once that was done I adjusted my saw for the width of these two by fours and then finished off ripping the worst side of the brain off [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] next I marked every 16 inches for the location of the studs that I'll be screwing on to the sill plate I then figured out a measurement for the height of my studs and then cut those to length I pre drilled my sill plate four screws in all of the locations I'd be attaching a stud then I used my square before tightening things down since I don't have a top plate on this wall yet I screwed on a brace across the front to secure the studs while I lift the wall in place in between the two steel columns I needed to notch the top plate to clear the bolts holding the girder to the column once I have the top plate in place I used a small drill bit to pre-drill the studs where I'd be driving screws through into the top plate I made sure the stud was level before driving screws into the top plate and then I repeated that process on each stud next I started framing in in the area around the electrical box where I plan to build a box who allow access to the plugs and to protect the insulation on the back wall here I'm using my electric shear to cut down an extra piece of aluminum I have it's an own I know thickness my plan is to use my box break a pan to create a really deep box or pan to protect the area around these electrical outlets and the insulation here I'm using my Eastwood 12 inch box brake and pan to put some really nice crisp bends into that aluminum piece because of the depth of this inset I needed to make I had to make it in two pieces which all popper of it together here I'm drilling a hole where my pop rivet location needs to be once I get that one side pop rivet it in place to hold the material there then I'll go back and drill my second hole and put in that second popper a bit now I needed to finish the framing around the aluminum piece which will hold it in place next I use some self-tapping screws to hold the aluminum piece to the framing I was now ready to put up my siding I picked up these eight-foot corrugated metal panels out Lowe's my plan is just to cut them in half and go four feet up with the corrugated metal and they put plywood above that here I'm using my D wall angle grinder with a cutting wheel on it it cut like butter through two layers of this corrugated metal [Music] [Music] after making sure the top of the siding was level I use my self tapping screws again to secure the siding to the studs and the sill plate I worked my way across making sure things were level and continuing the process to attach the siding to the studs Lowe's also had this trim piece I thought it would give it a nice finished look where the siding meets the plywood with the trim piece level and slipped in behind the siding I use my self tapping screws to attach both pieces to the studs the corner of the trim had a bit of a sharp piece so I just used a file to clean that up and smooth it out I probably should have done this earlier but after making sure the wall was plumb I drilled holes in the girder to allow me to drive screws down into the top plate I continued that process along the length of the wall finally coming down the homestretch I was able to cut this half inch plywood to length for the upper section of the wall I used a 2 by 4 clamp onto the plywood as a cutting guide and my saw depth cut adjusted so that I didn't cut through my supports on the sawhorses [Music] the plywood fit perfectly between the corrugated metal and the girder so I went ahead and secured it to the studs with inch-and-a-quarter screws now with the wall finished I could finally organize this area of the shop just the way I wanted it I also took the time to wire a much-needed new power cord and install some new belts on this drill press [Music] thanks for watching
