Everything starts with some squiggles on a page. I even came in under budget in the end!

This wood will shortly be a shed.

Starting to take shape - 15 degree roof.

Bramble - two will enter; one will leave.

Crappy bit of wood only present to pull sides vertical until I fit the roof.

Roof on! Getting a bit dark now, but roof is on, quickly felted it and got food...

Done! Was rather wet this morning - glad I got the roof felted!

That's the only reason to post anything on STW isn't it? 😉

Pretty good.

I built a similar one with old pallets.

Ain't got any just now but if you look at the OPs and imagine 2 pallets of the bottom one on each end and 2 as the back wall that's the general idea. The roof was made from taking planks off the bottom 2 pallets and using them as struts. Cost nothing for the pallets the roofing felt I had enough left from refelting the roof.

Looks great. This is in now way willy waving but if you fill that with wood it won't last that long assuming you have the stove lit a lot during winter,

Brilliant.
I am busy designing similar based around how many pallets I can blag/remove from skips - only ours will have canoe and kayak rack atop.

Err, don't leave tools on the floor. Bad bad bad. Does this count as willy-waving?

*Likes the Victorian tiles*

Hood work! I'd squirt some weedkiller down where they brambles were, as you didn't pull the roots out, so they'll be back

Don't have a stove, got a fire. I'm assuming I'm not going to actually use it very often - I've had the house for two years and still not lit it. Mainly for lack of something to be burnt to be honest - just been gifted a load of wood - hence the wood shed.

Yep, already done, when I cleared it I used just didn't dilute the stuff - enough for a tennis court went down on about 3 sq meters.... I assume that'll do the trick for a while!
