The Shed Extension - its all finished (update 27/9)
« on: April 10, 2016, 06:50:17 PM »
Having waited and waited for the Build something contest of 2016 to start I realised that I could not wait any longer...especially if the grand opening just before BLAM is going to take place....

yes I am talking about the long awaited, much talked about and now a reality...the Shed Extension....

As of today the project started....more here

My shed is my castle^^ There no replacement for a shed even with a bigger shed. Room for a mans Hobby should be protected by the constitution of a country.

Blimey Giles... That's going to be even longer than an already long thing!
Good luck with the build. Don't forget to use lots of poly cement.

Now, if only you could work out how to make it just a little bit wider....  ;)

Your shed is bigger than some people's houses!

Out of curiosity what depth are you pouring your slab to?

Great start to a 1:1 scale build  :)

Pretty sure your shed currently has more square footage than my first flat :)

The concrete will be c50 cm deep at the edges (I cut trenches) and around 20-25 cm deep around the hardcore
