Feeling stiff today after chopping this lot.
Second shed put together from some off cuts and spares bits and bats, £15 all in.
I'm feeling chuffed.

That is a magnificent wood shed. Not often you see a tiled roof.
We had some spare from getting our house roof replaced so seemed like a good idea. Tiled our other wood shed as well.
Nice work, especially the roof. I'm always a little shocked by how much people pay for shop-bought wood sheds, my one next to the house cost about £20 and the ones out of sight (pallets and currugated) were nowt.
Nice chimney.

Likewise, though not so much shocked as dismayed at the lack of talent to build such a simple store, especially with the internet at hand to help. Most I've seen look like they would collapse when filled with the first load anyway.
Someone's gotta buy 'em, I guess.

It's impressive, but I'd suggest you're a [i]bit[/i] overexcited.
😆
Good, however there is no over hang to keep rain off, and not much ventilation to let wood dry.
It gets the thumbs up from me. Like the slates. Airflow is key to drying wood.
Like. Especially the tiled roof.

B- must try harder.
I don't know, the big hole in the front will help with ventilation :O)
Nice. Should just about cover November. What will you burn when it gets really cold 🙂
PS, if you can fit a gutter to the front edge it will keep the wood a million times drier if/when it rains

Indeed and hopefully its backed against the prevailing wind too?

Our prevailing wind/rain come from behind so mostly blocked by the fence (well, that's the theory). We've another one on the patio and it did a sterling job of drying the wood out but is only one ring deep. The back is open so a little through breeze.
Great idea about the guttering though, have wanted a water but for ages.

Yes you will get nice hard dry wood at the front, but damp soft wood at the back, which we all know doesn't work very well !
