This reply is simply to let everyone get past the immediately prior reply.  As he said, someone had to say it.  Meaning what I said, not what he said.

Handsome wargaming accommodation, Giles 
Looking forward to my first game in the expanded Shed.

It looks like the new shed will allow for multiple gaming tables once it is all connected. A great space for gaming.

This evening I finally got the felt onto the roof (without falling off  ) & built the final piece of wall to cover the return where the two sheds meet.

Up next construct the door and finish off the weatherproofing.

If funds akkow I'll start the electrics this weekend. That will be followed by the insulation and only then will I cut through.

This extension is going to be subdivided into a small storage area for my wifes business but the bulk (80%) will be for storage and a workshop.

A Workshop!!! You are so lucky!!! I have to do all the dirty work in the Garden

[Eric the Shed]

Managed to weatherproof the new building and hang the door over the weekend

Will start on the inside soon

Looks like the outside is about done.
Well done it is.
But how about  three color camo on all the buildings.
Will blend in with the rest of the plants.

[Captain Blood]

Go on, paint it camo - you know you want to... 

[Eric the Shed]

Go on, paint it camo - you know you want to... 

Yes but she who must be obeyed doesn't

 

[FramFramson]

What about Dazzle camo? 

[syrinx0]

Then in the winter you would need to paint it white.  Might be best to go with her suggestion though.

Curious question - with the elevation above the foundation do you have a critter highway underneath the Shed?  Sure would around here, some years ago had a federal trapper stop by and he referred to our neighborhood as ground zero for varmints - skunks, raccoons, possums, etc.  Of course, for your size, I'm thinking more along the line of rats and such but maybe polecats, too?

[Eric the Shed]

Yes there is a gap underneath the shed ---

I had mice in the old one but locking my cat in there for a couple of nights soon sorted out that problem

As long as there is no food down there the rats should stay away

Wasps are an issue - I have had two nests in the roof over the past 10 years and we do get foxes knocking around


But alas no polecats in Surrey, England...

[Eric the Shed]

Started insulating the shed this weekend...
