Well, the snow came and wouldn’t go away! So this has been an unusually long process, but, at last progress has been made. I decided that I had waited long enough for the snow to go and got the shovel out!
Those panels are around here somewhere!
First Panels go up at last!
Roof on and cladding complete,almost!
Internal OSB cladding
Fitting out begins
This has so far been a very long process, but I am in at last! I start a job tomorrow for a client to build some storage. I will make all the cabinets in my new shop! Hooray! I still need to build my benches and install the power, but it is a dry and reasonably warm space to work for now. So hopefully I will be able to post some new projects, and, the progress of the shop fit soon!

Thanks guys.
patron, I had a look at Garys’ blog, and that’s what I did! Not sure why they didn’t load first time.
Tom, the shop is 6metres by 3.7metres, about 20feet by 12feet I think! I made all the panels myself to my own design. The concrete foundation was already there from a previous garage which you can see in my previous blogs.
This link should show you the full progress of the construction (I think!)
