Thread: My Shed

Nothing.

Got a little shed up the back with no floor and no power. It's packed full of crap and totally useless for doing any work in.

My focus has been on the big stuff. An extension, a carport, two decks, a pool, etc, etc, etc. Never had anywhere to just hang out and work on stuff.

Hi everyone.

I just installed Forum runner on the iPad so thought I would test it out by posting a new "before" photo of my shed. Tree came down last week and stump was ground out today. Concreters will be here next week to do the cut and slab soon after. Shed gets delivered in about 2 weeks.

I've been spending the last few months collecting stuff for the shed. Got a Ryobi grinder stand real cheap from Bunnings who were clearing it. Also been buying little things like cheap shelving and storage bins so I can deck it out. Kitchen is getting renovated at the same time so the budget is screwed - might take a little longer to fit it out.

Anyway, here is the before shot.

Hmmmmmmmm...probably look better when the grass is covered in concrete, and even better when the concrete is covered by a SHED....

Damn right! Not the prettiest outlook on that part of the block which makes it the perfect spot for the shed

few turning blanks there

you must be mighty pleased it's started

Are you recycling the kitchen cupboards into the shed for storage and work tops?

Ross

Hi Ross

Nah, the existing kitchen is blackwood and in good condition so it would be worth more to me selling it on eBay and using the cash to build benches and shelves exactly the way I want them.

Think though of the look of blackwood in the shed....what could be finer!! Calculate the cost of building new cupboards etc, add the cost of ebays selling fees, and is it still better to sell? Surely you've fallen in love with the look after the years with them; parting with them now would be akin to losing your ???????

Yeah but then I don't get to build new cupboards. Groggy would be disappointed if I took the easy way, rather than the more complicated and time consuming way.

And the view from the shed looking back across the yard.....

Definitely need a second storey and upstairs verandah on the shed to relax and take in those views while partaking of light refreshment during those hard "work breaks".

Shed has arrived!!! Without notice, a week early. Bit annoyed that I wasn't informed of the delivery. Made it hard dealing with the driver over the phone to get it placed in the right spot, but he did well.

Sure it doesn't look like much yet.

Bobcat comes tomorrow for the cut.
