Hi wiseboy

was it you that cleaned up or the highwinds that blew through or was it because the winds blew everything in there you had to clean up

[weisyboy]

i get no wind in my shop or verry litle as it is closed in 3 sides witch keeps the wind from blowing threw.

i do get a slight drift down the driveway and in the far end (second photo) witch keps the dust away the air fresh and me cool.

i could not stand to be stuck into an enclosed workshop all day where as i can stay in there for as long as i have work to do.

saw bench finished.

with makeshift 4 x 1 fence (soon to be alloy channel) worked like a charm.

Hi Wiseboy,

What a great shed mate. Just love that open side with a view of greenery. Are they mango trees I spy there? Wander out for a home grown feed come Christmas.

Does it get a bit chilly in winter, being open and all?

Cheers

there is a nice little table in process (in first new pic)

we sell the mangos of the trees. we also had over 7 acres of banabas but they got bunchy top.

now all we got is the 50 mangos, 10 avacados, and about an acre of rockmelons, tomatos, spuds and cucumbers,

[Pops]

Crikey mate, that lot should keep you busy in the garden.

Nice 'little' table in progress there!

Keep us posted on that one.
