a penny for your thoughts on my lean-to bike/stuff covering plan:
red line is back yard, green is 2.5*1.5m bit where we currently have the bikes and some tools in boxes, covered by a tarp at the mo
plan is to attach a length of timber to the yard wall, then build a two-section roof from timber and polycarbonate twin-wall sheet. one c.1.8m section for bikes, one c.0.6m section for the toolboxes
the roof will be attached to the timber on the back wall with hinges, alongside having legs on the front, also hinged (green/grey blobs) so they fall against the underside of the roof when that's lifted up - then having hooks/eyelet screws to be able to lift the roof up and hold it up against the wall to get to stuff.
