I knocked this up a few weeks ago. Scored the timber from some old roof trusses that grandad had in the driveway for years. The top and shelves are 'Structafloor' from Bunnings. It all went together better than I expected, I still have to finalise the fence system I have since put together and...

I finally got around to re-doing my tool box (the prototype setup ran for about 3 years). Anyway, I'm a bicycle mechanic so work involves a lot of international travel, weight restrictions limited space etc. After running traditional briefcase style tool boxes for a few years, I lashed out and...

So I've been looking around these forums for a few years and finally decided to join the fun. A bit about me - 33yo, married with the first child on the way. I am a bike mechanic (push bikes for you Americans) and we recently bought our first house. Obviously a shed was high on my priority list...
