Looks professional though unlike mine which was put up by mineownself and two of my sons and a son-in-law to be... exactly NONE of whom had a bloody clue!! :eek: made a right bodgy job of it too we did! extra c channel left over sheets amazing that its still up really got a concreter in to do the pad but should have done that myself as well another one of those tradie issues Im afraid
Still it looks the ducks knuts mate... kids like it you like it what more can you want eh!

Looking good ,
What have you done with the stormwater/guttering?
Hard to tell from the pics......I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming in terror like the passengers in his car.

How much wood could the woodchuck chuck if the woodchuck could chuck wood?

My down pipes run out on the ground, but im on a sandy block, so it doesnt cause a problem. Yet.
Recommend a subboard. I put one in, and got sparkie to fit off, not too pricey, about $45 from Ideal Electrical. Then you can have the safety switch, circuits for machines....Young kids cancels shed time

Why bother with downpipes?
Tommy, If I had your rainfall I wouldn't bother with downpipes ... struggling to justify the gutters at the moment ... especially if you're not collecting the rainwater.
In fact over that side of the world the only thing a roof is keeping off is sun ... so go for shade cloth ... it's cheaperRamps
When one has finished building one's house, one suddenly realizes that in the process one has learned something that one really needed to know in the worst way--before one began.

With you there Ramps... buggar the gutters just extend the roofline a tad and install a wee garden an the runoff will water it for you without affecting anything else.
Dont have any on the shed and wont have any on the house when it comes... hate the sodding infurnal thingsBelieve me there IS life beyond marriage!!! Relax breathe and smile learn to laugh again from the heart so it reaches the eyes!!

Shrinking shed
Mine's the same size - only one large door though - and it slides.
Yeah - they look massive when they're empty... But...
Sliding table saw
6 inch jointer
DC
Thicknesser
Bench morticer (I got a Leda)
Drill press
huge bench (too high)
medium bench (storage underneath)
SCMS
Router table
2 cupboards for drills/elec plane/beltsander/bits/blades
Jake and Jess's 50cc 4-runners
lawnmower
whippersnipper
herinthehouse's chrissy deco's
and my junk. . .
There's bugger all room to swing a cat.
Table saw in in the middle
all else spaced around the walls
no room for double rollers
Wish I'd been able to afford a shed as big as Bunnies...
Great feeling though - init???
Cheers
Jedo
