jimmy Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Well I'm almost at the end of my quest for a new shed. A couple of tons of earth, replaced by 2 ton of hardcore and 1cu metre of concrete and I was able to put this up today. I still have to insulate and line the inside, fit some electrics and make up a ramp, but the end is nigh. My original plan was to dig it down to street level, however when digging I came across some yellow tape advising me of a gas pipe so couldn't go any lower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bippo Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Good one Jimmy. Looks like there is a street light near your shed too, that'll help act as a further deterrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
