Today Geoff and l continued with our new shed! We decided not to use the front tin panel but opted for some leftover Weathertex weatherboards we had instead. They match the wall we put up at the end of the garage so thought they would look a lot better (which they will once painted!)
It all went swimmingly and started to look very smart.....this photo of Treeka and Pushka supervising the build is actually to prepare you for the sad old sight she looked however when we put the roof on.............................Ready????
l did warn you and l hope no one is laughing..............Mum??????
The roof was hard!!! It really needed about three 6.2 foot men and we only had us two! AND we put it on first upside down (but apparently l am not supposed to tell you that!!!) SO we had to pull it off, flip it over and put it on again........and it was big and floppy and awkward and heavy and it kept on falling apart more and more as we flopped it back on the top of the shed!!!!!!!!!!! (((sigh!!!!))) It sort of looked like an old shed AFTER Hurricane Harry or something!!
But we did it! We bashed and banged and stomped and nailed and flattened it out somewhat!!! But it's not finished yet! We ran out of day!! We need more roofing nails, a few more supports inside and some paint! But it's a great little shed and will close our yard in nicely and house the slasher once it's done!
Just don't look too closely at the roof!!!!
