    Hi, Wheelin", I can't remember, but it is about 20 by 15 metres; the steel shed kit was donated by a member; that is going up very soon, with all hands on deck to close the walls and whatever is needed; it certainly is BIG!!

    Default Shed size

    Hi, I have been corrected on the final shed plans; it will be 24m by10, with a 10 by 3 m verandah at the front, all cleared for disabled access, including the amenities...
    enough room to swing a cat or two!

    Default update

    Hi, Christos, and everyone, yes, the steel frame is finished, I didn't take my camera to record, but I'll be posting some photos soon.We are now organizing the assembly of timber infill panels, so the roofing scaffold can be erected;the infills will later be clad with zincalume sheeting.
    After that, we may have to stop for a while, that will be the end of our finances! We need some extra$ for the electrical wiring.
    Anyway, that's for the future; we'll take it as it comes.
    Thanks for the interest, regards, Raul

    Now that is a real bugger. Having a shed but no electricity. I am sure something will come up. Seems that way for me when I am thinking what am I going to do now?

    Default shed with no electricity...like a pub with no beer!

    We are taking things one step at a time, the wall frame up is on next week, then the roof will be laid on .
    So far, we have not had any government support, only private donations, so we are used to sweating it out!
    The electrical wiring is just another test of commitment for the members; in the meantime we still have our temporary workshop running at least 4 days a week.
    Will post photos asap
    Cheers all, thanks for the interest and support
