My Shed: The Box !
In shipping parlance containers are known as 'boxes'. My shed is a box.
I live fairly remote, in the Bunya Mountains, 20klm to the pub, 50 klm to the shops. The Box has to serve in a number of roles, store, maintenance workshop, and garage.
Because of its limited size everything has a place and everything is (mostly) kept in that place.
If you 'right-click' on these images and select 'view-image, you should get a much larger view with a magnifying glass.
First I have to get the Bush-Pig out before I can even get in .... Haaaaa
There are no posts, and nothing is ever kept on the floor. This allows free movement and also I can get 6m lengths of steel into and out of the box, and work on them on the benches.
All the power and powerboards I ran under the main bench so there are no leads to get tangled up while working.
I made a catenary out of a rope which I tautened inside across the long length of the box. I used an old tomato stake to cut up for the guides ..... There is nothing flash about the box. It is really just made from angle-iron, MDF, and the ubiquitous tec-screw. (that fix all for anything)
The Power Tool Store.
The Main Workbench .........
Hope you enjoyed ...
