    Default My new shed, i built my self

    G'day all as i am a new member i would like to thank you all for tips etc i have been reading over the past few months. Attached are some photos of my new shed which i can now build some work benches etc to start some new wookwork projects. Dining table, t.v cabinet etc. (after i move back into the house due to the renos.)

    The front wall is wider than the back due to a triangle allotment, so the side walls are raked to suit the roof. The sheds not very big due to site constraints. But it does have the best view.......
    After the reno work from the old house (1850's) and sheds have heaps of old hardwood and rudgum which i plan to regenerate and use as internal and external furniture.

    Thanks and i will follow up in the near future.

    Kane

    Looking good Kane,

    I like the idea of a weatherboard shed with a timber floor,
    Much better for woodies than a tin or brick shed on concrete.

    Looks good great effort

    Your cabinetry skills should get a good workout, in the near future.

    G'day Kane, and welcome!
    That shed is truly unique, great job improvising in the site available.

    Cheers,

    Well done KVA

    Good use of the space available. Maybe the small triangular space at the back might be the place for the dusty and a compressor

    Also welcome to the mad house as it aptly named

    Great looking shed Cane,you will find the wooden floor makes a big difference standing all day,concrete is so hard on the feet.Over here there are a lot of sheds with wood floors and weather board or pailing cladding.I did a wood floor 6mX3m from celery top pine off cuts from a saw mill,took awhile to process them into boards but cost was $30.I really like the look of your shed and i think you will have many creative ideas come out of the door,hope you have a bigger door for the big pojects.......lol
