G'day djstimber,
Ah, a shed one step closer, and just in time for Christmas, only one thing could be better - a SWMBO who says to go out and fill it with all the tools/machinery you want.

Concrete has now been screeded and leveled off .
The concreters have cleaned up & packed everything up and will be back a bit later with the helicopter to put a nice smooth finish on .
Also had plenty left over and spread this around the front off the site where the door opening is which eventually have crushed rock and drainage put in.
Will update a bit later with photos of helicopter in action .Cheers

Helicopter has been over the slab burnishing a nice smooth finish .
The machine is taken over the slab in different stages as it hardens up.
All that has to be done now is cut some stress grooves, which will be done either Saturday or Sunday.
I also took a 1 minute video with my camera as well. If anyone wants to see the helicopter in action, let me know and I will talk to Gumby or Stuart about uploading the file. When it comes to videos, I am pretty much lost :confused: .Cheers

Thought I would post a pic of my shed which is part assembled.
When I pulled it down at the old place, I layed the walls down in 1 piece then took off 1 sheet where the girts joined up and and simply uncrewed the joins, leaving me with a 3mt long wall section.
I also numbered all the panels so that it will go back together easily, I hope .
So hopefully it won't take me to long to put it all back together, will probably make a start on it next Wednesday after all the festivities.Cheers

Well after a sloooowwww start this morning, I tackled my neighbour from across the road and he gave me a hand to move all the wall panels into position .
I then just had to find all the screws and line them all up and screw back together and they are now ready to stand up .
The old man is going to come up for the day tomorrow and help me get them stood up and proppedCheers

Gonna be one nice shed mate. Bet it will have a six pack or more drunk in its honour!
.... as for the speed of erection (can I say that here?) it does not matter cos in the end you will have a bl00dy nice shed to create some dust in.
