Eastside Cruisers

well after the long 16 or so month wait for council to get thier arse into gear with permits, i finally got the go ahead to build my new shed.

here's a few pics of the progress from start to finish.

THE BACK YARD WHEN I BOUGHT THE HOUSE WITH MY OLD SHED.




GOOD RIDANCE OLD SHED




I DECIDED TO HIRE A BOB CAT AND TACKLE THE GROUND WORK MY SELF.



AFTER I RAN OUT OF PLACES TO PUT SOIL, I FINALLY DECIDED TO GET AN EXCAVATOR IN AND 8 TRUCK LOADS LATER THIS IS THE FOUNDATIONS FOR THE SHED.




THE NEW WATER TANK



DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MUCH BUT THAT WILL BE MY SHED IN A COUPLE OF DAYS

THE FIRST BITS OF FRAMEWORK FINALLY GOING UP.





AS IT SITS TODAY.
ONE MORE DAYS WORK AND THE SHED WILL BE COMPLETED. THEN FOR TEH WIRING, PLUMBING AND FINALLY CONCRETE.
YA RECON IM NOT STARTING TO GET EXCITED LOL

Looking good mate finally get to play with ya torry

Yeah Ryan I can't wait dude.

That's awesome Steve! Keep the photos coming.

Have you been doing the assembly yourself?

Sweet, now that's what I call a shed! Looks awesome.

Cheers guys. Nah brett this one was a bit big for me to tackle and if I built it, it would of ended up a 15 year build like my torana. Have a great shed builder if any one looking at building one. He is also my neighbour and a very good friend. Been in the trade for over 30 years.

Monday the roller door tracks go on, side access door in, finish a bit of flashing and front window and then will be complete. I'm wrapped how its all come together

Wow Steve, great work.... That's a real shed alright! Enough room for a hoist, bar, lounge ect... I think I know where we would find you every night, not inside the house that's for sure

wow awesome shed! like an aircraft hanger! would love to have that in my back yard!

Yeah Charlie. My mrs already said if I'm bad she will send me in the house coz the shed will be too much fun haha
It's the biggest possible shed I could fit on our block that the council would let me build. 12m x 8m x 3m side height and 22 degree pitch.
I can fit a hoist in but will only be able to lift the car about 1400mm off the ground. Still better than nothing but I would want it off centre so it doesn't take up too much space.
Eric it cost about as much as an aircraft hanger too lol our poor mortgage is copping a hammering haha
