• That was an hour well spent - great thread!

    Did you get the walls pre-built or did you lap them yourself?

    I'm gearing up to building a vertical bike shed (to hold 3 bikes) and am planning to cut cedar shiplapped boards to length for the sides & front.

    The shed / office, I'm getting prebuilt, and just sticking together, but I'll built a desk & worktable myself.

    If it's half as good as your shed, I'll be happy.

  • Thanks. I lapped them myself, as there's just too many weird angles in that shed to have anything pre-built :-)

    Have a good think about building in security beforehand, as it's really lacking on standard pre-built sheds.

    Strong work! How did you cut them? I'm thinking of a circular saw, and a jig for crosscuts.

    Do you then just nail them in? I've not yet started that particular YouTube rabbit hole journey.

    Security-wise, I totally agree - main security will be cemented-in floor ring and chain, and maybe some steel reinforcement in the woodwork. Luckily, break-ins aren't a thing around us, so I don't need to go nuts.
