smallclaas Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 How the hell do you get that perfect curve Garret? Thats amazing, looks perfectly real to me. Tris I measured up the real shed and scaled it down, to get the curve for the roof I used a Tyre form a landrover and used the scaled down measurement to match the curve on the tyre. I then made a jig using 6 pieces of MDF all boltted together. Then cut the curve using a jigsaw, when I removed the bolts all the pieces were of the same curve. Then I built the roof onto the form and hey-presto. I can re-use the jig, I'm making three more curved roof sheds at the mo all for sale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 You make it sound easy. .. . what a head for inginuity you have to be using and old Landy tyre to help in the build. Fantastic mate, just fantastic!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallclaas Posted February 11, 2007 Author Share Posted February 11, 2007 Looking for an old pvc pipe at the mo for the silo. Might use the landi tyre again to help with the slurry store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallclaas Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Here's the pics of the finnished wagon/nissen roof shed. The first pic is the overall view with the unfinished cow house to the right. The second pic is the guttering which, runs along the join of the two buildings.
