Building a shed?

[Aperitif]

Get a big boat and turn it upside down, like they do on Holy Island

Typical. 2015,Fnaar, and you're still making comments before the watershed.

Just for the hull of it.

You're talking bilge.

As an aside I have a pallet and pallet type box I'm not sure what to do with.

Does a wood store count as a shed?

I think I've found a use for my spare pallet and frame.

...had 220 logs delivered today(!)

Use Polycarbonate for the roof instead of board and felt. Huge amounts of daylight!

Boll*cks to the extra light, it's a good idea as no maintenance will last miles longer than the felt roof. Great idea like it.

I can't bring myself to burn pallets keep stripping them down and finding other uses for them. Have given some thought to using them for the walls of a shed.

1 or 2 pallets on ground. Cut ends off and screw 1 pallet each end to the base. You could screw a couple of battens across the top to finish off but you will find you catch your head on them all the time, so I just used rope. Still fit for purpose after 4 years.

No need for language like that! I'm giving you a stern warning before I bow out.

Second time around, the shed thread has done a 'shiplap'.

Im half thinking of a metal shed eventually as a bike store , has anyone any thoughts on them, it would be a full size shed rather than something like an asgard box .Are they more secure than a wooden shed ?
I do already have floor anchors into the concrete drive to secure the bikes.

They are more secure but metal sheds sweat. Condensation forms on the internal aspect of the roof (assuming it's metal as well) and will drip down. If you insulate the roof (19mm polystyrene) then this will stop this.

I'm getting shed envy

Makes me want to replace the leaky, damp, cold too small thing that the bikes currently live in.

Not sure its just the ceiling that has condensation. The whole shed seems to have condensation in it. Certainly would never buy one again.
