    Steve's Aussie Shed/Workshop Build 12mx7m & 3.6m High!

    Good work Steve! Lights look great. Lift seems perfect too. Very clean engine bay on the Honda, bet it goes well with a snail that big! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    Looks great! Can't wait to see it in action. Why did you go with an asymmetric option? More room to open the doors? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    Well said. All good points. There is plenty of info online regarding the load rating of the steel sections. Likewise most reputable fastener manufacturers post the ratings of their parts. Most importantly, if you're not 100% sure with what you are doing, find someone to help or consult a...

    Thanks :) Insulation and Sheeting is from bunnings. Insulation is just standard wall insulation, I can't remember what thickness, but it was almost perfectly the thickness between the walls and Sheeting. The sheeting itself is 16mm HMR melamine. It's designed for building kitchen cabinets I...

    Re: Steve's Aussie Shed/Workshop Build 12mx7m & 3.6m High! I had the same problem as you Rudi. I found almost no clear floor models low enough to fit under 3m. I went for a scissor type, but a regular two post with the cross beams on the ground would achieve the same height. I can get my E36...

    The only really tricky part of putting it up was that the centre portal frame in my shed is larger than the two side ones. this means the centre post is deeper and sticks out more from the wall more. So I had to rig up brackets on the side posts to get the rear beam parallel to the wall. That's...

    Looks spot on! How close to the right wall did you put it? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    Haha that thread is old. The poor mill has been in storage for more than a year during house move/shed build. Hopefully some more progress in the near future now that its been moved into its new home. How is your floor coating holding up so far? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    Here you go Tim, i found a photo on my phone that i didn't post that shows some more detail of the basic frame. I think one end wasn't fixed at this point so it's not quite straight yet , but you get the idea.

    Thanks Tim! I do intend to post some photos showing the current state of the whole space shortly. I didn't yet because everything is a massive mess while I get stuff sorted away properly. There are some photos of the basic structure a few posts back. Because it's all hanging off the shed...

    Awesome. I've just submitted for a quote on their website. Thanks for the tip. Bet you're just itching to lift something on the hoist right now.

    Great work on everything Steve, the hoist looks like it will be a ripper! What brand/supplier is the gutter guard you used? Is it from someone here in Brisbane?

    Photobucket Can **** It. Ok so I finally got the chance to got through and fix all the photo links that broke when Photobucket screwed everybody. I guess this is a lesson in cloud storage... nothing is forever. For anyone who is wondering, here is a method to back up a whole thread: Find...

    Yeah ***** hey. When PB started this whole debacle I backed up most of my threads. Unfortunately I did it on a lunch break so all the backups are at work. I'll do some fixing on monday. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
