Congratulations! :clap: :clap: :clap: It's looking great and the size is big!

Be sure to keep the slab wet for the first couple of days so it cures better.

Thanks Esteban, I watered it obsessively for the first 3 days and it's been raining for the reminder of the 2 weeks since the slab went down :)

Just waiting for the shed supplier now, they missed their delivery date by about 3 weeks ! :evil:

Hi all,

sorry for the download overheads :oops:

Just (finally) finished moving all my Patrol parts into the new shed - it looks a lot smaller now !

Photos for...well, photos anyway ;)

Before I loaded it up with car stuff - shelves built from 90x35mm pine, lots of big screws to handle the weight of many, many Patrol parts...shadow boards are yet to be populated, all things in due course !

And now full of car stuff - few loose ends to tidy up and many boxes to sort through but at least it's all here now - don't be fooled, the boxes of "baby wipes" are actually cool stuff like locking hub sets.
I know the trailer is in the way of the lovely Patrol and 510 view, but it's been such a trooper lugging engines, transmissions, transfers and the cab back from storage I had to give it 30 seconds of glory :)

Congratulations. It looks great! :clap: :clap: :clap:

It's been very interesting to see the progress from the initial concept to this great and functional shed. You've put a lot of hard work!

Thank you - I knew what I wanted so that made it a bit easier to plan...right down to the number of screws in the shelving and shadow boards...

Should also mention my wife's patience and understanding through it all, as well as assembling much of the lighter shelving and sweeping up the mess after I finished the timber work :clap:

Cheers,
