My life, in a nutshell. I think it was Anth who introduced me to the saying "the floor is not a shelf" Hopefully, once I get some more floor painted I can install lots of shelving and start to reclaim 'horizontal surfaces' ...

Having just done a 70 x 30, I can see that x 40 is worth the effort. I only have end access, I think x 30 needs lots of side access to be effective.

Probably true - but having experienced colder climates like China and Chicago, it's the constant battle to keep dry and rid of mud that gets to me. Particularly living on a few acres and having young dogs. 'First world problems', I know. But but having lived in this climate for 40 years my...

They are serious structures! Nice - you have been busy.

I did guess the older pic's as Miners Rest :) Glad you now have more space and more projects to fill it :) Sounds like you might need to start a new thread ...

Yes, it's a 'real' Ballarat winter, for sure - so soggy. True the early EVO's are thin on the ground. A lot of the I's and II's were/are rallied and the III's became iconic in Japan so prices went up on them. I very nearly traded up to a black EVO V he had at one point. I believe he still...

Just trolling your old thread - you had a great collection of projects happening back then. Loved the high pitched shed roof - I went to 15 degrees, but more would have been nice. One penalty is heating ... I see you had plans to move and build a huge shed - did it happen? These things can...

Thanks! Enjoying winter???? Its actually an EVO I - but they certainly do look similar. I was lucky to get it 20 years ago when Phil Messer had a car yard in Ballarat. He was able to import 2 each year and this one turned up in really nice condition. It's certainly showing its age now, but...

Sounds like a good idea - make sure you come and say 'Hi' ;) Make sure you study our weather before you travel ... our southern winters are cold, dark and wet (right now)

An upgrade I am glad I did ... I hope you enjoy the album!

Hey Anth - I can only imagine your living/work situation during the lock-downs made the decision to extend very easy!!!! Looks like #5 may be extended too ... check out my 2 albums for the 'Toy Box' and the 'Infill' ... I finally got them loaded.

I've added a few later pic's of the Toy Box and a seperate album of the 'infill' area between the 2 garages - enjoy!!!

Thats Dad at about 95 years of age with one of his projects. Chaff-cutters cut feed grass into food for animals.

Thanks, much appreciated! The blend of stone we selected really came out well.
