mjb1 xmas sheds

[MJB1]

started building sheds to go with the tims toys gift set for the boys xmas present ,When finished it will have breeze block pattern paper for the lower walls & cladding pattern paper for the roof

Good idea with the "combing" effect for the boards.

[james f]

Yeah I like it

Looking good mjb. I'm sure it will look a treat with machinery in it...... :)

[Deere-est]

WOW!! They look boody good Marcus. You have made them look very simple to make but very effective to the eye. Fairplay, the kids are gonna love them, no shadow of a doubt there. Lucky little buggers!!

Very nice Marcus  "proper job"  :)

i may yet have to put something in the corners to give it a bit of strength as i'm not planning to put them on a base.

unfortunately this is the only thickness i've got so maynot be as strong as i'd like but only time will tell. If these work out ok then i might start some of my own rather than use theirs !

I used a bit of "Quadrant" in the ones I built for fp jnr. They are free standing and still intact, some are about 8 years old now.

Looking Great MJB - How did you get the cuts in the board  - Great Idea by the way - it looks really effective

[Lord Ferguson]

go down b+q and get some 6ish mm triangle and put them in the corners 

should do the trick

PROPER JOB indeed!!! Veey nice job MJB1! :)

just got a lolly stick to get the spacings then used a saw . I have used this method before when making sheds from left over laminate flooring & it looked ok but i had a band saw then so this was a bit more time consuming.

should do the trick

tempted to get some at focus this morning but at ?6.75p for a six ft length it was a bit too pricey,so will use some 15x15mm from the leftovers from the consevatory it ain't going to look pretty but i doubt the kids will notice

If I had known I could have sent you some off-cuts with the wulmaus from the wood yard.
