The Code of Practice

[Wild Dingo]

Great thread!! And I might say very good timing! If we can get this up and running I will make a nice sign with the code of practice on it to hang in some spare obscure bare patch of wall in the shed

The bench should never be cleaned but should always be covered with something screws offcuts tools gobs of paint glue and such

The floor shall never be swept the 2ft thick mat of sawdust offcuts nails and screws are seen to be charector building and should only be cleaned off to a depth of 1ft only upon loss of child wife or other venturous personage who should know better than to venture into said shed

All sheds should contain at least one fridge for cold storage of beverages for visiting shed connisoors and wood butchers

One stool only... buggar visitors they got bums sit on a log bench floor whatever its MY shed... GET OVER IT

The shed will ALWAYS be too small... GET OVER IT

There will NEVER be enough tools... GET OVER IT

Wendy will NEVER get me to wear that red leather outfit... MOVE ON!!

ooh oops wrong thread

ahem... where was I? damn lost the thread of thought or was that chain of thought? red leather of thought? DAMN YOU WOMAN!!! :eek:

It does NOT have to be a regular round thing with a bulls eye. (Pic of MIL or Ex work just as good)

Must be mounted in a suitable safe place somewhere within 6ft of a bin.

Should have a back board big enough to accommodate your throwing skills.

Used for snapped drill bits, stripped screws, farqups, balls of 2nd hand masking tape, offcuts & stubby twist tops.

To everyone who has contributed ideas so far: Goodonya! The quality of your contributions and the thought processes behind them are tributes to the sagacity and erudition of the membership of these forums.

Keep the ideas flowing, boys and girls. They're all valid and they demand inclusion in the Code of Practice.

I'm trying to put this together in a decent layout, incorporating all the ideas that have been contributed up to now. I may have something to show you tomorrow.

My shed, my rules.

I may well be pussy whipped in the house, I accept this for the sake of a quiet life.

Not in the shed!

Where do you keep them in your shed Col? :confused:

Ginge, me old mate, I keep 'em next to the fridge, ready to be exercised when I'm having a coldie.

[Cliff Rogers]

Arh, you mean like Grolsch & the beugel?

(look them up in Wikki)

[Skew ChiDAMN!!]

Walls and roof do not a shed make. Where the sawdust falls, it's "in the shed."


...and what good's a Code of Practice without fine print? Stuff like:

Installing a safety guard on a machine you've used for years without one is just begging for trouble.

The quickest route to the hospital often involves removing a safety guard.

No matter the shed or the rules, remember this: Transgressors will be persecuted.

.... Transgressors will be persecuted.

Is that anything like p'd upon?:confused:
