Well Lordeoin might get upset if I hijack his thread but it was his fault that got me to finally move on my rebuild so I will start my own :).
Last week saw me demolish my old garden shed and do this.

Hope to lay the floor Thursday :)

put in an extra waste water pipe before laying the concrete.
you might never need it, but i bet you'll want it later on for bringing in a network cable or leading some beerline outside or something.
and of course you'll only want these kinds of things after you've laid your flooring...

Excellent. Best of luck with the build and keep us updated with loads of photos. I need to do my own shed eventually as well, so look forward to the progress on this.

I notice you were talking about kingspan on the other thread, U Value in Ballycoolin is the best value and they sell to the general public
There's no such thing as bad beer - some just taste better than others

+1 on that. Used them a few times. They don't open Saturdays though unfortunately..

Being mullacking all day ready for the concrete delivery tomorrow. Despite the rain got the sink drainage in and not connected to the surface water as some idiots do. Levelled the area and laid a bed of sand and then the visqueen and then the insulation :).

Tidy job Brian. How's the concrete being delivered? Ready mixed bags?

DEMPSEY

In a truck,a big one with a BIG pipe to pump it in. :)

Pah! That's cheating.
I thought you'd be wheel barrowing it in from bags.

Surely he wants to be barrowing the aggregate and hand mixing it with bags of cement :)

Looking good Dempsey ;)

Dube, what's with this fascination of yours with jax's? :P

DEMPSEY

Mixed 2 ton by hand for the foundation and shifted 2 more ton of  sand for the base so fooked if I am mixing 2.5 cubic metres of concrete :'(. Man with 200mm pipe connected to a BIG lurry  is what I want. :)
