Shed Preparation for Winter Projects

[Irish in Oz]

Im spoiled rotten my Garage/Workshop is part of the house and the central heating boiler is in there aswell - Ive lined the door with underfloor heating insulation (2x6mm) so its fairly cosy in there all year round

Back in the 70/80's if you had a garage and central heating the boiler was usually in the garage. I was lucky then that my parents had it. All the mates round for a yarn and a couple of beers, was also good when myself and mate where making TZ fairings but you didn't stay in there to long after that.

Making a crate around the bike & putting the dehumidifier in there makes a lot of sense.  Much smaller space so will use less power.

Where did the idea come from.

From you & your mate, I was just saying how it was a good idea.

I am a pretty spoilt boy......hmmm which one to use

That's the way to do it Kiwifruit, my first shed I built slightly higher than normal the second higher again so I could put a mezzanine in and a car hoist.

Ummm...... its got 2 small mezzanines and a 2 post hoist 

But no heating and it sure gets cold in the winter.

Kiwi that's another home mate very cool  I'd love that but I am happy with my man cave

I installed a flat inside my shed in Oz just before I left, a few trimming to finish when I go back, only got a few pics under construction. Off the grid gas and solar power, one bedroom, lounge and dining kitchen, large bathroom utility room. 50 square metres. Mezz floor above.

Nothing wrong with a man cave. I'd say most have more character than a tin shed. Our intention is to kit it out with a bathroom and kitchen so we can use our caravan to sleep in and rent the house out. Just don't  mention it to the council lads 
Or.... we could put some mattresses on the floor, hire a porta loo and have 100 lndian and Bangladeshi seasonal kiwifruit pickers live in it. Might run that past management

Doesn't matter how big it is you fill always fill it.

So true, a mate of mine has 3 garages now and wants to put up a fourth because he has no room to work on anything 19 cars and 4 bikes, all good stuff I might add

I love looking at this, a while back now.
