Hiya Mark , not sure if its of any use but im fairly sure that you can get a decent kit form Shed on tinterwed for a really reasonable cost , i was looking into building my own large shed 18 months ago , i realised once i had quotes for the timber thqt it was in fact cheeper to buy a kit form shed and put it up my self and it also lowers the time it takes and means you can be out on the tools earning money .

Forgotten about this thread! 12' x 9' now.

 

This is where £400 has got me, with enough 4x2 left to finish the roof.

 

Probably need another £200's worth of timber and fixings to finish, and £100's worth of roof sheets.

 

About half of the £1500 I was quoted, and made of much better timber.

 

I know it has cost me time, but it feels like being on holiday doing this stuff!

Looks really good. I built a smaller shed (bespoke to fit a certain size space in the garden) at our previous house, cost me about £150 in timber (so less than the equivalent size from a DIY place) but will probably still be standing in 40 years from now.

 

Only problem is, I sold the house 5 years ago so don't get to see it any more!

Looking good Mark. :001_smile:

 

For not a lot of money you could get a local engineering firm to weld you up a flange, bracket and clamp for the chipper spout, so you can fold it down rather than having to take it on and off every time you go through the shed door.
