Fatslr, I kept a track of your journey to see if you were going to past through Port Pirie and if so get in contact with you. When I saw you were travelling only to Wallaroo and then acrossing the gulf by ferry I didn't bother. Port Pirie is a good place for hatch's as there is a number of good examples.

So jealous guys, of the sheds AND the cars...

Hoping to get a real shed later this year. At the moment I only have a garden shed that I can't even stand up in which leaks and is probably 40 years old.

The torana is currently under my patio after spending several years parked on my back lawn. I'm sure the missus won't want it there for too long so the shed will be coming soon. Watch this space!!

i hate how sheds get delivered these days all flat packed....

mine was all flat packed and sat on the designated pad for six months before i encouraged people to help me build it

and a little word of advice leave the P.A. door off the shed it gives easier access to your things in the shed

but then just put a big ass lock through it

HAHA! That cut of a Torana, is going to be a future BBQ! (Once that shed in the foreground goes up!)

Yeah, I got sprung reading the instructions! Dammit! It is rather confusing though! There are 3 boxes of just bolts and screws! At least some are the roof colour, some are the wall colour etc...

gen3, Mine will be lucky to sit there for 2 weeks! I want this thing up ASAP!!!

Not sure how far back it has been covered but just a reminder;
1. plenty of lighting.
2. you can never have enough power points.
3. good ventilation as it can get hot and fumy working in there in summer.
4. don't store acids in the shed.
5. provide space for a decent workbench.

Yep 11 degree pitch! Its 3.132m at the top to be precise! It's 7.9m wide, so i guess thats why it might be a touch higher? It looks higher too, cos i'm looking up at the shed.

Can't wait to finish work and get home at work on it!!

We might pave it... We love the grass, so want to keep as much as we can... But it does get very slippery in some parts!

i was thinking u may need atleast some lead up to the garage.. as with the cars going in and out it will compact the dirt outside the doors and it will become more of a step up into it than anything...?
