All the rest of the shed went on the front verge

I was going to ring a scrappy to take it

Locals came and made off with 90% of it including the old roller door

 

So at this point it will go on the verge

Might use a couple of bits of steel to fix the fence while we're at it

 

Someone offered a 9" grinder... that would be appreciated

 

Yeah looks like an easy job (famous last words) and site looks small... might need a bigger shed... lol

Tree Walkers,

Also, this tree is not Datto's and they are using his space to clear it all out.

holy crap, that tree was enormous.

 

Did your neighbours help with the cost of the new shed that the tree trashed?

 

cheers

No worries Datto.

 

The two Dave\s are machines.

 

Check out Dave's new invention, a multipurpose tool that lets you sweep and rake!!

 

Coming to a Bunnings near you soon.

 

You forgot the other hard worker of the day too Neil

If you're thinking about getting one of these saws, just do it, they are awesome!

If the rumours are true the new shed arrives here 2pm today and the installer will be on site Thursday morning at 7am

Concreter is booked for Monday before Xmas to fill in the gaps (Its a shitty slab but I'm not redoing the whole thing)

So technically... all up by Xmas

 

Now I just need a 9" grinder or something to cut off the last of the old uprights by the end of the weekend.

Nope... just something to cut and grind away the last remaining posts

My receiprotating saw will only take them off about 2" above ground level

 

I think theres only 3 or so to go

I have a 4" grinder somewhere... but its packed away I think

No new slab

Just adding to it since the new shed is bigger and in a different spot

It will have to do

Even though its got 100mm fall from end to end and not particularly level

But the worst bits are at the end that will just be used for storage anyway... the working area of the shed is pretty good

 

I might tie myself to the pile and sleep in the yard overnight !!
