OK Sorry about that, I was running out the door and just had to put something up.
We bought 100 acres just north of Coffs about 18 months ago.
The shed is 22 x 11 with a 6 x 11 garaport, a 28 x 5.5 awning and a 120 sq/m mezzanine all on a 150 slab. 5.5m eave height
The mezzi will be our temp accomodation while we owner build the house.
First on the drawing board is the excavation with the removal of 147 trees Well that's the official count
There are some nice tallowood,bloodwood,ironbark,grey gum,turpentine and sheoak to come out. Should keep me busy for a while.
I'll get some pics up as soon as I can

Yep sacriligous, I know...... Mapleman would have had a field day.
Unfortunately they just came down too fast and there isn't enough room between the mountain and the lake to put them.
We had 2 men on chainsaws, 2 stickpickers, and me on my bobcat feeding the fire and stacking the logs.
We actually had 5 of those fires burning for a week.
I sold most of the logs to fund some of the earthmoving. There are plenty of sticks around when I need them and mine weren't that big anyway.
