Thread: what is your shed like?

In summer its stinking hot to the point where I don't go out until the evenings. I really need to see if whirly-birds will fix this up a bit.

In winter its freezing, until I fire up the old cast iron fireplace a builder scored for me.

I work in the garage, so insulation is my mainstay.

Just fans, no heaters.

I must get myself a fan.

You need to add another option - "all of the above".

Stinkers in Summer, 3 coats plus and beanie in Winter.

Fans? Wish I had a bunch of gigling pretty girls following me around, but alas only my 3 year old girl and SWMBO.

Just a 300mm whirly bird, exhaust fan, normal house fan, though the air filtration unit does help circulate the air quite a bit. Have to add, a vitamin or two helps towards the end of a hard days yakka.

I have a fairly high insulated roof so my shed is cool enough in Summer but I am yet to experience a Winter.

Was going to put a few whirly birds in the ceiling but SWMBO objected to having them sitting on our bedroom floor. (Work space under the bedroom)


Cheers

Four walls, roof and 2 doors.

Summer - open up both doors
Winter - close both doors

If I have to have shed time it can be lovely or cook or freeze but at least it my time.

i jsut got 2 walls and a roof that is a floor. under the house so its half in teh ground. nice and cool in summer but it gets a bit cool in winter.

My main woodorking shed is fully insulated with a reverse cycle A/C, whirly birds which I can open or close depending on what the temp is and if I have the A/C going.

And my second Metal working shed is unlined with nothing to heat or cool it apart from opening back side door and front main door with a fan to cool when hot and rug up when cold.

On a hot day you can really feel the differences between the two.

You could run the pipe through the bedroom floor up into the ceiling. Then you'll have your whirly bird in (and out of sight) and a pole in the bedroom!

Heard pole dancing is good for you

A really thick Fireman's pole for those times you need emergency access to the workshop?
