Michaeli Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Well my shed has been up almost a year and bit by bit been kiting it out. Well over the last two weeks had a push and it now resembles a workshop com pleats with wood burning stove which when going heats the 18 x 10 shed up nicely Can't wait to get my .308 so I can spend time up there re- loading Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentalmac Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 I a literally very jealous right now! I am still in the 'talking my girlfriend round' stage at the moment. I only own a normal sized tool box and a few others but my dad has millions and a pretty good man cave but will be another 20 odd years until I get any of that stuff... I am thinking I might start buying machinery and tools and putting them around the house until the other half gets angry and tells me i have to move them and I'l just say I have nowhere so guess I need to build a shed...?

michufc Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I have a real problem now.......i just cant keep my grandaughter out of it........she is 4 1/2 and we have just passed the knocking nails in wood ploy...and she is now wearing gloves and eye protectors and drilling holes in wood with the post drill, and she is learning the language of the shed world................. she was overheard by her teacher at pre-school saying to her friend..."get your **** together we are going".........needless to say mum was on the phone that evening wanting to know what other stuff she will be coming out with.....!! That's brilliant just reminded me of my little boy on a day out at western super mare We my son was 2 at the time, we were waiting in the Que. when he said daddy daddy shoot the pigeon. And the woman in front of me gave me such a dirty look so I then said to my son. Then what happens to which he said send the dog daddy with a massive smile on my face THATS MY BOY GOOD LAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michaeli Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 A wood burner in a man cave is the way to go. Mine takes about 20 mins to get my shed nice and warm. Also adds a good dose of fire to a mans life. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy.plinker Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Talking of woodburners, anyone seen the chap online that makes great looking ones out of gas bottles? I've seen them in magazines before and would be perfect for the smaller mancave. And probably wouldn't be hard to make with a bit of diy. Get the old gas out first though !!
