    Hi all, progress shots, more earth works have been completed around the shed, this will stop any water getting in. the down pipe are all now connected, all the rain water from the shed and the house is draining to the tank @ 107,000 litre capacity, we'll not run out any time soon! A big thanks to Geoff, billy and mark for the progressive effort of laying all the floor and decking boards. Almost 3000 screw into metal joists, 85 square meters of floor. Then levelling the rest of the shed with the bob cat, first layer gravel, second fine crushed granite / sand, levelling by hand, third was the 14 bags of sand and cement raked in. then a few hours on the wakka packa, wetting down and we went. Very happy with the finish, not including the bob cat hire, about $ 700 for 110 square meters. Cheers Jason

    That is shaping up to be a very nice shed. It's lost that bunker look and together with the timber flooring and Colorbond it looks great.
    I make things, I just take a long time.

    Probably taking it easy...moving those slabs around and laying all that flooring must be tiring.......but then, the rewards

    Hi All, I've been away from the computer for a few weeks but some more shots, a little more progress, the shed was commandeered and used for a wedding! So it had to be prettied up, walls painted , banister rails, pictures hung and floor finished. It had come up a treat, but was under strict instruction not to bring any tools or work benches in until after the wedding! But no fear the first build happened over the weekend with a new set of treated pine steps to the far side of the shed. The front wall will be installed over the coming weeks, we found 8 mtrs of windows and doors at a demo yard of western red cedar, delivery in the next few days. That leaves about 2 mtrs to fill in. the other 5 mtrs gap at the side, will have will have some sliding barn doors build, in due course. The fun continues...

    You could kill two birds with one stone by having the shed warming and wedding at the same time

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

    Well done Jason. One question, why didn't you use a concrete slab floor, instead of floor boards on raised steel purlins?
