Picked it up. Will update the thread with pics once it’s cleaned. Building the workshop this weekend will probably tackle it in 2 weeks and share updates.

Appreciate all the great advice, picking it up Friday so hopefully have a go with some suggestions over the weekend and report back in this thread.

Perfect thanks, will do!

Thanks, I’ll message the guy now!

Looking to buy a used bandsaw, this is very local to me and not a bad price. Im not very clued up in regards to these things but how easy does this look like it will clean up? Appreciate that pics can’t rally help much but it’s all I have. Many thanks.

Been keeping an eye on these for ages, today is the lowest price I’ve seen since last November, people are still paying £450-500 for these second hand on eBay. Metabo HC260C from Powertoolmate.co.uk via EBay. EBay has a 15% voucher at the moment up to £75 off which made this £594.99 down from...

Looks smart! Where do you source your birch plywood from and how much per full sheet?

That’s one thing I do worry about, I have lovely neighbours either side of me but not so sure about the ones behind. I have decided that once the ceiling in the shed is lined, the highest point from floor to ceiling will be 2080mm and the lowest point will be 1980mm, which is plenty of room for...

Concrete poured this morning roughly £300 from monster mix. One of the local cats also walked in it… typical. I will buy something to fill the holes then seal the base in a couple of weeks once the structure is up.

I'm sorry to hear this, im not too far from you and am in need of a bandsaw, dust extractor, planer thicknesser and drum sander if you have any of these available. Thanks.

This is sort of what I’m planning on doing, although I can just make the big sheets of it if I sit them on top of the joists as apposed to making smaller ones to fill the gaps between the joists.

Haha I can see where you’re coming from. I agree and have gone back to the drawing board in terms of the height as I did get confused about where the 2.5m is measured from. It will definitely be higher now, I’m going to make a sketchup design tonight.

Ah yes I just reverted back to the article and was about to post this. Apologies for that, it’s adjacent to, not the front of. I think the article got their words muddled and assumed everyone’s land slopes backwards lol. Here it is. “Ground level is the surface of the ground immediately...

I’m not completely sure it didn’t fully explain, although the picture that was with the article showed a garden room with the front of the building where the door is being at 2.5m and the rear being 3m, so if I were to guess I would say the front of the new structure.

From my reasearch a warm roof is insulation sandwiched between osb. So I would say yes.

This is one thing that has had me thinking of lots of different designs! Fortunately I am a short guy lol so can get away with it being more of a shed than a workshop. My plan is to go 2060mm from concrete base to top of walls, then use joist hangers to sit the roof joists flush with the top of...

Looking for an Axminster drum sander. Thanks.

Finally, after a couple of years of trying, I have a small amount of free time to build a workshop and hopefully fill it with tools! Interested to share my design and progress over the next couple of weeks with everyone and it’s always good to get other peoples views and if there are easier...

I believe air dried, purchased from another member on this forum in December and were 11% M/C then. Happy for buyer to test as i do not have a moisture meter.

The largest planks are 1" (25mm) the smaller planks are 15mm, although one of them is 1 3/4"
