    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    I feel it's going to be a balancing act between creating storage space, but not making it look i have an excess to the wife doesnt see it as a dumping ground for house excess :lol:

    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    Time for some shed content update since my personal drama is on the backburner for today atleast. So today i decided to start tackling storage and work areas. But as time goes on needs change and so do plans along with those. When i first build the shed i had 2 project cars (HZ One Tonner...

    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    HOTFR8, that's my immense hope at this stage. Fingers crossed really. Will be in contact if need be. Nice to know I have a potential fallback position if necessary. Contingency plans are important.

    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    Update time - Have had a pretty busy first week to the new year. I put the truck in for a roadworthy at another workshop on the 3rd, and they were happy with the signatory paperwork from the engineer and had nothing to say about the chassis. So i've spent the rest of the week fixing little...

    Ever do something so stupid you wonder if you should be left unsupervised?

    Working on a project car that was almost at driving stage after doing a heap of first start tests. Was a real nice combo, 308 V8, 750DP Holley Carb, Big Cam etc etc, had an aftermaket external gravity fed fuel pump. So 1 line comes from the tank, goes to a filter then into the pump. Then a line...

    Sounds like it's lucky you made it home at all.:scared: We've had some wild weather in the past couple of weeks (worse than the last couple of years atleast) So much so that i was up in the Rumpus room of the house by chance during another downpour last Friday and noted that i had water...

    Sheddwellers. (The Extension) + other property projects.

    That Miners Cabin is a real work of art, thanks for the pics. We've had the humidity down in Melbourne too, makes motivation to walk out away from the aircon and cricket hard. Hopefully your solar switching issue is cheap and simple to be fixed.

    Thanks HOTFR8. i'll hit you up in the new year when my head's back in work mode. Having a few days RnR after a massive leadup to Christmas itself. We got hit pretty hard here with rain and an impressive lightshow too. No hail though which was lucky. And im happy to say my drainage works did...

    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    Thanks, the past 3 months have been very stressful and just when i thought it was all over and i had my resolution another spanner has been thrown into the mix. Luckily i still have my old truck so i can fall back on that while this one sits until a resolution comes about. Thanks HOTFR8. Im not...

    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    Update Time. This week has been an absolute nightmare hence why no update last week on the drainage situation. I run earthmoving equipment and haul dirt for myself and also subcontract out to a plant hire company called Starbuck (no affiliation with the coffee people) i've been doing it for...

    Any idea what this tool is?

    The top part almost looks like something for lowering a spare tyre down from under a vehicle. Interested to find out what they're actually for.

    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    Alrighty. Update time. Dirt pushed right up against the top of the slab. I still havent taken the boxing off from when they poured the slab and as i mentioned above. So i set about pulling the dirt back away from floor height at the door and also at repositioning the drain as it didnt get...

    Between 485 & 705 SQ/FT Lyndon's Western Sydney Garage (amongst life's other stories).

    Thanks for all the extra info Lyndon. We have Semi Tippers down here in Vic, but they mainly get used for demolition jobs, very rare to see them carting dirt but the odd couple do get around. Finding places to tip them in Winter is also another big issue why i think they're not as common as...

    Sab's Shed - Longterm Project

    Currently flogging down with rain again. Sold my boat today, which gives me the space i need to redo the drive. So hopefully it stops by tomorrow and i can get some stuff done and take some pictures. I saved the two bilge pumps out of the boat so if need be i can employ them to help.

    Lots of combinations are limited to where they can run, including states and cities. To the point of drivers having to drop trailers on the city limits to deliver freight. Powertrain and six (plus) would be utilised in WA in the mining sector i believe where there are large, open expanses of...

    Between 485 & 705 SQ/FT Lyndon's Western Sydney Garage (amongst life's other stories).

    Im going to add my 2 cents in here, see if we can create some more confusion, until Lyndon comes back and teaches us. :D For me for a while, the confusion came with trailer designation and coupler designation. Front trailer of a B Double is Classified as an A (or lead) trailer but the coupler...

    Tiny workshop in Aus

    Will be watching this as you're "just around the corner" almost. Be good to see you make some use of a sloping block. Will the roof be usable/any point in making it usable for somewhere to sit/hit golf balls off? :D
