Talking show off your shed

hopefully someone can help me here. i have a new 10x8 shed and cant find any sort of shelving etc that i can use inside to maximise the space.

what i want from you lot are some ideas or links and maybe pics of your own handywork to give me an idea on what to do

i have checked carefully that i have not added any double meanings in my post

do your worst

Hmmm glad I didn't get mine from Shed-Store, luckily we had a bloke do some fencing and he recommended a local place where he got his fence panels from. Half the price of Shed-Store and only £25 for them to come and put it up

That said they haven't delivered yet either but did say they were busy when I ordered it and that it would be a few weeks.

Not exactly mine, but I DID take the picture, and enthusiasts call 'em "sheds" on account of the corrugated sides:

My shed



Needed to move it so as to build the garage...



It was a bit cold all perched up there on its lonesome



But it soon warmed up & got some company



Then took it down by hand & rebuilt it in it's new location. Had taken the precaution of only screwing it together knowing that evenutally it would move. Gave it a new felt roof though



Just for good measure, added a lean-to wood shed

Sarah,

get down to Focus/Homebase/B&Q/Wickes and buy some wooden shelfs and some shelf brackets. Don't forget the screws and make sure they are not too long.

Take them home and put them up.

Alternatively, buy a set of wooden shelving units from the aforementioned stores and put them up. Get some small angle brackets to affix the shelving unit to the shed so it doesn't fall over

Floor standing better as they don't put strain on the shed walls (and fall off when put up by a dizzy female )

Shelves like this

4 Tier Free Standing Shelf Unit - DIY and Tools from DIYTools.co.uk - Your First Stop For All Things DIY !


A few angle brackets like this

19mmx19mm Angle Bracket - DIY and Tools from DIYTools.co.uk - Your First Stop For All Things DIY !

Job done.

CD you jammy git

i searched for weeks for a cheaper shed but ended up paying the same as everyone else. my boyfriend put it up in gale force winds and on his own, i held the screws

puff, am loving the 'lean to'

isn't that a summerhouse jacko? nice tidy garden and you have reminded me to get a new peg bag

i will post up mine tomorrow if it stops raining

and why hasn't anyone posted a pic of the 'inside' of the shed
