A bloke needs a shed
Hi All,
We moved house over Christmas - New Year. We moved further out of the city as we like the quiet. The new place has plenty of space but I didn't have a workshop to mess around in. I'm still working in the shed at the old house while we fix it up to sell. It's taken a while but I finally got my permits all sorted and the new shed is under way. I had the block leveled and cleared a couple of weeks back and yesterday the guys turned up to dig and concrete in the footings. The frame was also delivered. http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...Footings_2.jpg It's good to see things finally starting to happen. Cheers |
Thats going to be 1 bigarse shed Mike!!
|
I can feel shed envy starting again!

Sheds
Aussie,
Thats going to make mine look like an OUTHOUSE....... Thanks Mike........:LOL::LOL::LOL: P.S. Is yours having a bar??? |
Jesus, when did this turn into a forum about shed bragging??
Just kidding. I am jealous too! |
Not sure about a bar yet Stiffy but there is a possibility.
When I built the shed at my old house it measred 6 meters deep by 9 meters wide. Years later I extended it to 9x9. I've collected a fair ammount of crap over the years and I figure I'll probably collect more. I didn't want te be building and then exteding later so I figured I'd do it right once. The new shed measures 12x16. The plan is to partition off a section for the machine shop so I don't have swarf and mess from one end of the shed to the other. It's a clean sheet of paper and I can set it out so it's easy to keep organized and tidy. I've been walking round trying to visualize it. The builders reckon they will be back on Friday to put the frame up. I reckon the scale of the thing will sink in then. Cheers |

Mike, is that a one or two bedroom shed? ;)

I read about this the other day in the paper, it's a new suburb called "Mikedom", postcode 427

Then I heard about Mikedom and thought Mike was prolly the local Mayor.;):LOL: |
Wow Mike,
First my friend Turk moves to Florida and builds a huge garage for his toys and now you are throwing up a "Shed" that will be the envy of Aussies and Yanks alike. Way to go. I just need to clean and organize mine after project overflow. Clois |
The footings all have studs.... for posts ? Does that mean there are posts through the middle of the shed ?
Is it going to be one of those barn style sheds ? |
Looking good Mike.
I bet you are excited, what is the first project? Phil |

Have an Erection party once you are ready to start. That should get you a fair amount of help! :) It's looking as though you planned yours out a little better than I did. My side garage is only 28' X 22"

Mike has an erection party every morning!

The guys were back bright and early this morning and had half the columns up by the time I left for work. I have to say I'm impressed with them so far. They turn up when they say they will and they seem to know what they are doing.

Sheeat Mike. My shed measures 2m x 3m!
