@mad73 wow that looks like it's going to amazing when finished!! I really need one of these,my man cave is a rather small but well secured garden shed round at mums! can fit about 3 bikes in it if I'm lucky and I'm reduced to working in the spare room most of the time as it doesn't have power lol

[mad73]

thanks , will have power when finished will make a proper work shop out of it

[mad73]

at the moment I have to work on bike on my drive a real pain in the ass as if it starts raining tools away and when its cold just cant be bothered , not working out to expensive either so far prob cost about £300 prob spend another £300 on it

[mad73]

this is the crap I have in my garden at the minute, council thought it would be a good idea to stick it in the middle of the garden , wonder if they bought a jod lot after ww2 , be ok if we get bombed Il have some where to hide lol

Nothing worse than when that old rain starts poring down and your working outside I hate that! You think your gardens bad? you should see mine it floods at the first sign on rain and is like a swamp most of the year

@mad73 I had those hinges on my shed, one day I came home and the door had been prized off with a crowbar. They took my mountain bike and my mower. So if you plan on putting anything valuable in there, I would suggest that you use regular door hinges, or one day you will be sorry just like I was!!! :O(

[mad73]

cheers for the advice but if any one gets in my garden they will have 2 dogs tearing them apart , sorry to hear u got robbed cant stand thieving scum c***ts
