Looks great & strong

i particularly like the doubled up roof joists & the simple way you've notched the top of the roundwood poles.

 

What species of wood did you use for the roundwood posts & cladding?

As a guess I'll say, hmmm.... oak for the roundwood poles & Larch for the cladding. Am i right?? or

 

cheers, steve

Yes nice shed and solidly built

 

Building it's the easy bit filling it's the hard part

Cheers, I hope it will outlast me!

 

The posts are old electricity poles. Started out with 4 poles at about 9m long, and cut them in half (well just over/under) to make 8 posts.

 

All the other timber is Larch from the local sawmill - apart from 6 rogue lengths of Douglas Fir! The cladding is 2nd grade boards, 6" wide, 1" gap.

 

 

The size was mainly determined by the materials - the 8 poles, 16ft lengths of timber, 2ft wide roof sheets, and the need to get the dumper with roll bar in.

My sister in law went out with a Dutchy.

He taught her a greeting to say to his sister when they met.

She laughed for ages.

Turned out he taught her to say "Hello , my name is Sue , I have small tits and a fat arse".

What an awesome bug house!

[sandspider]

Awesome bug house indeed, and a great log store! I'm jealous.

 

Also, JPAJS, very little wrong with your English!

Our little home store which will hold two cubic metre bags, made with an oak frame and Larch cladding, just need to finish painting the house!
