    Thanks Bob, one of the conditions on the subbies, in fact the ONLY condition on them, was that if the native frangipani gets damaged, so do they! It is now undamaged even though only 10mm away from the verandah gutter.

    As at 11am, the SHED IS FINISHED!

    Mick has gone after cleaning up and having a beer on the verandah and his labourer is in the shade rehydrating.
    l now have to finish the stormwater drainage and make a barn door to replace the roller shutter before the building is secure again. I will get that done before Christmas but l think inside racks and benches will now have to wait 'til after?
    l'm a happy little woodie!

    Alan how soon do you need that spare wheelchair brought over? It'll be useful in so many ways.

    "The FLett's Folly" looks brilliant I do have concerns tho a veranda could lead to more sitting planning time than doing time but hey who cares retirement is just another form of R&R.

    Best line the sparky up at least before winter.

    Are you considering insulation or going to rely on shady tree in summer and additional clothing and working hard in winter.?

    Fletty,

    Your shed looks absolutely fantastic. It looks like a "home away from home".

    Undoubtedly you will spend many of your "almost retired" hours in there and when retired - a heck of a lot more.

    Congratulations

    Regards

    Keith

    Fletty, looking good and welcome to my world of cleaning the roof and gutter every week. I am installing a fixed ladder on mine to make it safer and easier to do.

    Nice quick shed build.

    I hope my wife does not see this thread, will be expecting everything to be made as quickly.

    Nice work, Fletty, and quick too. Now the real fun begins with the setting up. And then there's the real, real fun when things start going out instead of in. Great work and great thread.
    The time we enjoy wasting is not wasted time.

    Thanks 3 toe',
    lm really looking forward to both of these joys but "things starting to go out" is the joy that will hopefully get me out of trouble for extending the shed!

    But it's all a bit closed in for me.

    Question: I'm I jealous much.
    Answer: Abso Bloody lutely!

    It really looks like a wonderful work space mate.
