Can’t wait to copy.

I still can’t find T1 11 in the uk :(

https://www.chilterntimber.co.uk/product/lp-strongcore-primed-2440-x-1238-x-9mm-lg-textured-and-grooved-200mm-exterior-panel/

its only 9mm - but its the same kinda thing - was close to getting this actually

backwards today - rain incessant. basically in the garage moving shit around trying to find stuff i will need. Got a minivelo i'm selling parcelled up. took delivery of the missing cladding battens, had some lidl prosecco and prawn cocktail pringles for the chazzle dazzle.
Then my wife showed up with a cat. Sloped back to the garage to pull out the piece of flooring vinyl i will use. Then to the neighbours for booze and bbq. game over. writing this in bed - cat just bit me. don't get your hopes up.

Good find, but it’s for the front elevation of our house and it can’t be OSB as that’s been vetoed by the higher powers. Where as I think I can swing ply T1 11 past them as it’s real wood. My first choice of galvanised corrugated roof sheets was shot down in flames as I started to sketch it up. The sheds definitely getting done in it though. I’m sure I’ll end up just using boring black barn weatherboard in the end though, but I’ll fight my corner as sheeting is so much easier to fit and I’ll be doing it.

You gained a new cat today?!

Route grooves in 24mm marine ply ? Expensive tho

Yes -unscheduled cat - it’s a huge setback . I’ll be claiming for an extension of time. Better check what the JCT says about cats.

Bubbles is a 1 yr old rescue. I can already tell she is a bellend

I do like a good garden building / shed build on here. Cats are always welcome as well.
Subbed.

Ha - welcome - don't expect it to be good !
Too early on a Sunday to make noise so time for working drawings and final dims.

Cheers, yeah I gave that a go. Track saw the groves and then ran an angled router down them, but it looked like crap. I’m not sure if it’s just I knew that’s what I’d done, but it didn’t look right :/ and also the cost!!! I’ll come up with something.
Oh and props on a rescue cat, but you know every job just got twice as complicated and will take three times as long now¿

Good progress today?

Some - interrupted by various things including a few beers and my mates landy breaking down.

Got the floor insulation in and taped up. Osb floor nailed off - symbolic final fixing by kids. Now working out how to protect it from tomorrows rain.

A nice tidy site and it looks like you’ve got a system going on. Top work. Now where’s that cat?

When she isn’t puking - being quite sweet and energetic- we assume the puke is stress related but I don’t really have time to read the instruction manual.

This looks great, solid vibes as well!

Cheers - hitting the 3pm wall - vibes are now white lotus.

You’ve already won shed building with that aligned threshold.

Day 2 - framing done - made a window hole and got the selco bargain bin door frame sized. threw some screws in and tied on the onduline to hopefully keep it dry. The easy stage really . Absolutely knackered.

Looking fine!

I like the chair in there for scale, also for a well deserved sit down after a hard day of framing!
