    I have just poured the slab for my new workshop which is been delivered Tuesday week. After the workshop is setup I hope to work on the 101 until its finished.
    What! No food or toilet brakes.
    That's commitment.

    Hello

    I have taken some shots of the 101 in its current state.

    and the new home for the 101 in progress

    I cant work out how to put the photos into the post - when I preview it seems to work ok but when I post they are only small. Also tried linking to dropbox cant get that to work either. I must be missing something

    Regards
    Andrew

    Looking good. Very jealous of your shed. I've thought about one a number of times but as we are planning on developing the block after the wedding it would basically get pulled down within 2 years

    Next house will have one!

    Have you decided colour yet?

    The size of the shed was limited by our lovely council. It's 9m long by 4.5m wide. The paint was removed by paint stripper, high pressure hose and sand blasting. I was lucky to have access to an industrial steam cleaner at work.

    I scored two brand new door tops painted Australian army green. I took one to the paint shop and they matched the colour. The only difference is I got satin two pack not mat.

    If you hold the sprayer way back for a final dusting coat it should look more Matt. Nature will do the rest!
