You in Bishopbriggs by any chance Merak? Looks vaguely familiar.

Built two and converted one garage into man-caves. Highly rewarding work! ๐Ÿ™‚

[i]samuri has roughly as many bikes as my LBS[/i]

That would be the most disappointing bike shop visit ever. ๐Ÿ˜‰

"Do you have any that work?"

@ Wrightyson - Have you got any strip lights left?

I'll be back up in Belper on 24 Jan.

I only have one light in my new garage at the moment, so looking for 3 or 4 strips.

My email is in profile.

Cheers

Stove is kick-ass!. Don't forget RCD on the power!. Don't want you fried!. Good luck with your build. ๐Ÿ™‚

Aye, I feel the neighbours don't share my enthusiasm for the burner. Some smoke issues.

Excuse the shoddy phone pics. Long way to go yet but heat, light and power are there. I need some masonry paint as Ive made a bit of a faux pas with white emulsion ๐Ÿ™

Bench and shelving after that.

Have you thought about running in some 6-core alarm cable from your house alarm?
Have magnetic contact sensors on the doors set as a timed zone with a chime when the alarm is in day mode.

Can I ask roughly how much something like that costs? I "need" a new mancave, trying to gauge roughly how much to budget ๐Ÿ™‚

Ta!
