Nice sheds & carports there guys. I can't wait for a bit better weather to do some more work on my "garden" shed, to hold car parts in lol. Then I can get some real work done in my real shed.
Cheers

Don't feel too bad tim_pato, Your not the only one who doesn't have a shed to work in...
Most of the time I'm working in my driveway, cause the shed is too full of toys & tools. Smaller jobs that can be done on the workbench sometimes get done in the shed.
Sometime early new year I plan to take my shed to a new level, fitting some air line's around it, and maybe fixing up the wiring for the lights as well, in between working on projects.

I guess I should post a pic in here too then.
I've just had a new shed put up for me to play in. Prior to this I did everything in a 7mx7m shed, so this is a big difference.
Here it is when it was first built, before I filled it with crap.
And here it is now : )
I love my shed : )

Hi Dirtbag,
Love your shed too! What is the size & specs for your shed? Especially eave & apex height, roof pitch etc.
I,m doing mine next year & weighing up whether it's cheaper to go factory kit eg. Titan etc. or I'll custom fabricated & sheet it myself.
I may not get what I want in kit form.

Hi Ando. It's a 12mx24m with 3.3m walls (under gutters, not gable peak). Roof pitch is 10 degrees. Not sure on the exact height of the gable, but the kombi on a hoist can't touch it : )
I bought this through southern cross sheds, and they were nearly $20k cheaper than the same size through titan.

Speaking of sheds I finally got the council approval to go ahead with mine. It's been such an ordeal (June 14th to December 8th) with council that I'm over it. When the DA modification (yes I did have a prior approved DA, but I needed to go bigger) was first lodged I was into it, now I'm doing well to mow the gross.
I even ordered the new shed on council verbal approval at 21m by 7m and then they went back on there word saying it was too big. I still get the same area, but now it will be an L shape.
Even my designer (house reno's on same DA) said that he never seen anyone with as much hassle as me before. Even the shed company said that this was unusual. What makes it more frustrating is that I live in an industrial zoning surrounded by houses with massive sheds in the back yard.
Too late this time of year anyway to do anything. No chance of getting any tradies now.
Wollongong Council, you suck.

LOL Wollongong council, just give em a brown paper bag and you should be right to build anything.grrrrrrr to wollongong council, i wish you the best of luck with it!!!
Im in Canada bay council and they are a nightmare also, trouble is its full of arogant wanker no alls and know frOck all, they couldnt give a shit about what we want to build, all they care about is big development, we are just a hassle to them. If I had my way I would say fine if im such a hassle then stick your frOcking rates up your ass.
It took me about 4 years to get my $780 bond when i built my first smaller garage, until I sent an abusive email to them, then i got it back.
We're dealing with proper frOcking assholes when it comes to council. frOck the council.

Now that is a truly novel idea. I have not seen this done before.
Full marks for that one and I can see this becoming a bit of a trend with some.

Not the flashest and not exactly mine (rental property)
Very messy at the moment, the sign of work being done..
At least I have this waiting for me straight out the door...
Found this one the other day, soon after we moved in and before I started the resto...
