I'm back in CM next week. I can pop round and ride the motorbikes while you're doing it, if you'd like.

It does!

But I'm not allowed.

Bloody generous offer that!

Make sure to give me enough notice so I can gas them up and load them on the Datto for you!

Will do.

Uh oh, let's not forget the tennis debacle

^ smeg will have the daily progress of the shed building uploaded on the ant-pwned-us forum via satellite images.

I think Herr Fling will have already started a thread on NTD.

So Ant, stop getting distracted by all the angst a simple thread on knocking up a shed has already caused and tell us the plan...

It's now in the consultation process: I've shown the wife the link Norts gave me and the pics and plans of the one I like, will wait to see what she says...





...and ignoring it if it's not the one I want.

Will go materials shopping this weekend I think.

OK, so is it wood and if so what type plank or board, plank and Manny's yer man apparently...

Ahh...I is going with this stylezzzz:



Someone mentioned concrete base earlier in the thread? Think I'll go with that.

Remember a slight slope on the base to get the water to drain away...A small bar, camp bed and bucket for your new Hong too.

Is there no Knock-down/prefab business on the outskirts of where you live. I know you are up north but there are many on the way to Pattaya. Must be some up there.

Above serious

Below joke

Yeah there's a couple I go past most days.

I actually keep meaning to check them out as regards adding a detached sleep-out / unit type thing.

A bit beyond what I'm looking at for this particular project though.

We've got a place near us and even basic type ones go 100K+ maybe cheaper Up Norf ?

Crikey that seems expensive. No idea on prices here though, might make that a mission to check out this weekend also.

We are talking these Lanna type all woods reddy-brown termite lunch boxes here? usually on stilts about 1m off the floor? and invariably have a seating area with minimum 1 loom

Nah that's not what I'm on about.

The type I'm referring to are like prefab unit type things. Similar to these:

Just show your picture to Somchai. He'll have her done by lunchtime.

Yeah, that's what I'm worried about...

Naturally.
....and building something functional from scratch sure beats any synthetic pre-form any day.

The ideals of being reasonably self-sufficient seems to have passed you people up.

^Does the mud hut containing 2 stone axes and a flint in your backyard stand out in Portland?.

Here yu go Ant this is the shed
