    The event was recorded on this Bulletin Board. I think the photos were deleted for OH&S reasons.

    Today we are putting some heavy wet grey stuff on the floor and a bit around the edges.

    When it is set, I'm sealing it with two coats of epoxy sealer that I have.

    It's looking better and better.

    It's all finished and I just now have to wait for the 14 cubic m to set before I step into it again.

    That was a hard day, it even makes my back ache looking at the picture.

    Looking good Rob.

    Still seems an odd asre-about way of doing it to pour the slab after the shed.

    When my new shed was built, the slab & footings went down first with steel sticking out of the footings & then the shed was built on top of it.

    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    Nothing to do with proximity to the Murray.

    I wanted a good seal between the walls and the slab, in fact it cost me more to do it that way but I wanted it right so that's the way I did it.

    The only Mexican flavour to the whole job was the slab of cold Vic on ice that we contributed to the deserving hard working blokes who did the good job. They seemed to enjoy it immensely, none of this beer with four kisses on it.

    Two things distracted me Chris - a fire up the hill a couple of K's away and Happy Hour at the Tavern.

    I'll check it out in the morning all the same.

    It's exciting watching it all happen, WB, reminds me of how excited I was when my shed went up last year I even 'mark' my memories and woodwork with 'before shed' and 'after shed'

    Starting to look good WB

    Still reckon that's the way to do it, poor the slab inside the shed.

    How long are letting the concrete cure before applying the epoxy sealer (clear or pigmented?)?
