Thread: New house, so new shed

I am jealous. Enjoy it Bob.

Looking good Bob

Argh yes the old prob of yeah it's just not big enough

Got two sheds now and it's still not enough, will be erecting a third shed soon, which I'm picking up from my Uncle's farm in exchange for milling some new rails for the cattleyard. It'll be an open shed but it'll be good as it will cover a lot off stuff that I can get out of the other sheds to create more room

Sure will Scott. DJ, no matter how small it is I can't see me going to three sheds - you win!

Lot's of fun to be had there Bob!! Enjoy!!

Knowing Laurieton a little, that's a real change. But if it gets a big shed where the nose doesn't matter. 2 x

Wow that looks amazing.

Love the woodport out the front of the shed. I always wanted one but the council man misled me but that's another story. Go the wall insulation and lining! I reckon you will never regret that

Hi Wendy. If you look at the fifth photo, up against the fence is the wood rack. Still to be finished. the spare colorbond sheets will be used for a top cover, the ends will have shade cloth, and the front and back will be protected by the fence and shed wall. Just before use, the timber will be moved into the shop racks.

so no cars in the carport then

Sounds like you've had a lot of fun planning your shed and timber storage

Finished installing the insulation on the walls today. Can't do anything else until the final is given on the shed. This is being held up by the plumber who has to connect the water tank to the stormwater drain. After that, get the electrical wiring run before cladding over the insulation.

Nice little shed you got going there Bob, cant wait to see the finished pic's after you fit it out

Looks good
And yes I am so jealous, soooo much room
I was wondering whether it is worth running the 4" pipe for the dusty between the shed wall and the lining?

Nick, there would not be enough room to run 4" pipe behind the wall cladding.

I will post some pics tomorrow showing the current progress. The electricians finished yesterday. Now have 10 double power points around the walls, one hanging power point over where the main workbench will be. There is also another roof mounted power point for the dust filter. Had two external power points fitted - one at each end. All of this runs off of a subpanel.

The interior lighting consists of three rows of three dual fluros; each row being independantly switched. There is also a light under the awning.

I have started to cover the wall insulation with yellow tongue. Should finish this in the next couple of days. Would be quicker but have my 10 year old Grandson here for the week. I plan to paint the walls with an off white semigloss to ensure better reflected light.

Here are a couple of photos taken at night with the new lights only. I find that with the construction work taking place at the moment I don't need all lights on at the same time. I have almost finished fixing the yellow tongue to the walls. As soon as this is done I will start painting, then the rest of the "toys"can come in from the garage. I will post more photos as things progress.
