The Shed ,
gus Tue 19 Sep 2017, 7:19 am
Ive gone from a 3 bay colourbond shed to ,no shed at all .
Bikes are stored next door but that's awkward so it was time for my own .
A tin shed was always going to be a tin shed so that was no good .
A nice Triton Shed was to expensive .
A container ( we built a container house , 2 containers with a middle part , not pretty, but its good enough ) but they are too narrow to move a bike around .
I thought I would have a go at building a simple shed to put the bikes in .

Of cause after a few beers the mind stars to wonder .
I'm in Tasi so i'm going to need a heater arnt I ,and a place to have a cup of tea . What about a bed for any idiot that might call in . The view here is not bad so a deck would be nice .
All on a very limited budget .
Ive never built anything before ,we pushed the containers around the paddock with the hippy truck .
It didn't have to be council approved because its my shed not theirs .
First decision size 3.6 buy 6 mts gets me timber in one piece . That it is then .
Waited till it pissed down rain and started digging stump holes . I was keen .

You need to take pictures of said events @gus just make sure you have the uprights and it should be sweet. Insulation might be a worthwhile addition too

Wait for the National meet that might be happening in your area next year and we can all chip in to get the job done.

National (or any other) meet = relaxing, riding, spinning yarns, talking shit, drinking too much, talking more shit but it DOES NOT include the "W" word unless someone breaks down and working on a bike is really nescasarry to keep them going, capisci?madmax wrote:truck wrote:
