Thread: My latest mission

    My latest mission

    I have set myself the task of totally re-organising my shed Before I begin the onslaught I thought I'd post a few piccies to show you lot what I'm up against. This is going to be a ruthless attack, but hopefully worth it in the end and everything left will be orderly and organised

    Anywho here we go!







    Keen observers my have spotted my homemade panniers on the bench awaiting final coats of paint and a few fixings, but more on those when all is completed

    Well, what do ya reckon?? Total tip or what!! How does my hovel compare with your lot??

    And this is before you started
    feck if my shed would have been this organized i probably would have found everrything i was looking for straight away.
    How boring
    The challenge is in knowing you have a certain tool but can not find it so you have to do a botch only to discover the tool you where looking for in the first place as soon as you finish
    They call him "Ze Quiet one"
    I listen to what the rice crispies tell me to do

    That's not a shed, it's a palatial palace with acres and acres of space! And I'm very jealous, my DW 701 has to live in my van 'cos I've no where to put it

    S'bigerrer than my first flat, when I was a lad...



    Looking forward to the Obsessive Compulsive (dis)Order version when you're ready.

    Yours looks pretty good as-is actually...

    What do you mean it's tidy and spacious?? Pokey and over run with junk if you ask me. All that shelving on the RHS has got to go! Don't mind some of it going on the back wall, but I can't stand the constriction of width! (Oh and I plan to fit a wood burnng stove/cooker there for winter use )

    R100GS thankyouverymuch

    Gearbox went *crunch* 2 weeks ago. Lost 3rd and 5th gear. Apparently a standard failure mode. Driveshaft has a bit of play, so that'll get new U joints while I'm at it. And now that I've got the whole bloody lot apart anyway, I might as well replace the clutch.

    It's surprisingly little work to get it this far into bits, but still, I'd rather ride.

    Anyway, that's a 2x3m shed. You're seeing almost all of it, there's a pushbike just out of frame on the right hand side, that's about it. Squirrel, yours is luxurious.
