How can you be so cruel, I've had that shed your years and years and years - lol

Once the roof is on I intend to raise the shed roof a little, putting a poly carb roof on it and when I walk in there I wont have to duck - nor will Gazza. I'll also access it from the 'hole' end and remove the other door, which means I could extend the growing on pond - Projects, dont you love them!!!!!!!

Knew the 6-metre x 2.1-metre sheets would be big, but they are BIG. Should be fun fitting these in a breeze!

Graham - Yes there is a plan, of course

Gazza - no accidents yet. After tomorrow I should have morst of the roof timbers in place, ready for fitting the Poly Carb on Sunday. Dont worry if you cant make it though.

Bob what ever happened to the saw and chisel? Always get a cleaner cut! Are you going to soften then edges by using a router?

Can't wait to see it finished. Keep it coming nearly been 12 months from the start hasn't it?
