Plans For Sheds

I am building a base for a shed. The size of the shed is 10×15 plastic shed with a extension. the Winchester is the model by royal outdoor, the plan so far is dig 6 holes 24-36in deep and put 4x4s in each hole cement around the 4x4s cut to desired height. Bolt 2x10s to all sides with 1/2 in bolts then use 2×6 as floor joists every 12in then ¾ in plywood on top to the joists the 50 year warranty masonry board from Lowes. This shed will house a 500lb quad a 35ton log splitter and a 42in arrands garden tractor and some other odds and ends.

I had a shed built by a builder but he left before the job is finished (Don’t they all!) He did run an 3-core(?) + earth armoured cable underneath the garden between the main dwelling (back of the house in a outside connection box) and the shed, but both sides unconnected. On the inside of the house, there is a Twin&Earth cable running between the consumer unit with a 32A MCB and the connection box, outside the house. I want to know if I need a separate consumer unit in the shed to power a ring main (for power tools) and a lighting circuit, fed from the armoured cable. I presume if this is what’s required, I would need a 5A for the lighting circuit and a 32A for the ring main. Any advice would be appreciated.

I have a metal utility building on the family farm I need to move to our property. But our house already had a barn and a little shed we use for gardening, plus we moved a 2 car carport and a (ugly!) utility building we use for outdoor equipment like the mower.

So I was thinking of making this building into something more for use than storage, but I don’t know what to do with it! It looks similar in construction and size as this one http://www.gr8sheds.com/metal%20side%20lofted%20barn.jpg except ours is silver and has one wide door rather than double doors. It has two windows on front like that and two on back. It has a plywood floor and was previously wired for electricity with several sockets and a light fixture. It will go in a corner of our fenced backyard with a few acres of woods behind it. So I’d paint it for sure and probably add a little porch covering. Then I’d decorate it with some flower boxes and stepping stones, whatnot. I just don’t know what to do with the inside. My only idea so far is a little outdoor room with somewhere to sit and read or talk. Any other suggestions?

Hi all, im planning to build a shed out my back. Im going to use it to play my future drums which im going to have to purchase also. Now, what could i possibly do to eliminate as much noise as possible or even no noise at all if thats possible. I live in an estate, and would like to play at odd hours. Could i get advice on what materials i would need for the shed and how big i should have it. I have a decent enough sized garden, I have €15,000 for my drums and the shed, i dont expect to blow the lot because its pretty much all i have.

Also im looking to buy a double bass drums with alot of symbals etc etc

Any ideas where to buy?

Im working at a house which supply the tools I need to do the job, amongst them a number of gasoline gardening tools that have been lying in the shed for years. I got all to work with use of the primer, but the hedge cutter doesn’t seem to have one so no fuel is getting to the engine making pulling the cord pointless. Any ideas how to get the gas into the carb?

I had posted a question about Garden snakes but after looking at pictures of snakes I realized the snake I am talking about is not a garden. It is a garter. I also measured the skin it left behind after its shed and the thing is over 24 inches long. It lives under our porch (which is made of cement) so I have not seen it. However I have his skin so I know he is there. I want to kill this thing or at least scare him off my property. The people we got the house from said snakes have been a big problem here. We keep our grass short, and we have an exterminator come out to spray but he didn’t do anything for snakes. Any ideas on how to kill this thing?
