Yes wall panels and fixings inc, another day done rain stopped play early but happy with progress things slow down a bit now cutting sheets etc, if weather plays the game and I get up early tomorrow I may manage to finish the cladding

Did u cut the sheets before or after you put them up?

 

[FIL46]

I cut the sheets when up makes sure they fit, easy enough with a cordless grinder with a bacon slicer

 

[Charolais cattle]

Great job and fair play to yea.. credit were credit due..

 

[FIL46]

She looks like a shed now with the flashing on, gutter almost done on one side but daylight gone again, doors should be here tomorrow hope to get them fitted before this storm gets here

 

[FIL46]

Doors arrived today well happy I have one up as the wind is getting strong here now

 

[FIL46]

Hard at it today the doors are done just have one side of gutter to go , but I can see the weather holding that up. now I can potter about inside in any weather

Is the blue lifting platform yours?
If not it's been on hire a while?
I'm a one man band too and would be tempted to hire in a second pair of hands and have the man basket done with in a few days rather than struggle on on my tod.

Still trying to finish my lean to from 3 years ago though.

 

[FIL46]

Hired the platform from national platforms £220 per week but well worth it, ladders at that height is stupid drilling holes and lugging the purlins in place from a ladder would be brave. It’s off hire tomorrow night , it will be back to the Manitou and basket

Where did you get your roller shutter door from and how much ?. If you don't mind sharing.

 

[FIL46]

https://www.auto-roll.com/ They are very good quick turnaround they have a online shop so you can get a price straight away. My doors are bigger spec than web page thicker slats and windlocks £2336.+vat for 2 doors 4m by 4M and electric is a good price I think

 

[Hotbed]

That's who we use, we've just got quoted for a 4mx4m standard door with balloon on bottom, that came in at £800 + theft delivered. There a good door but remote version can be troublesome, we stick with key switch only.

Nice job, but i would have capped the teks when you put them in...

I only buy integral capped tecs only, caps are a waste of time and after a while some fall off.

 

[FIL46]

The gutters are done , just need to run water and electric cable from other shed,and put on more caps. Can’t afford concrete floor just now so just setting up pens on this bit, the rest of the shed will be straw anyway, well chuffed with the lights all six on is more than bright enough

 

[FIL46]

Shed is good as done made my own swing gate’s and modified some field gate’s into feed barriers moved sheep in today and have given there approval

looks good , did you have to alter diagonal low level brace to get panel in ?

 

[FIL46]

I just removed the brace to fit the panel, made it easer
