Comments sought on new build: A CNC Router for RC Gliders and Planes

[njhussey]

Got a shed coming soon (well they call it a log cabin, 28mm thick wood) for my workshop. Managed to start doing the base for it yesterday afternoon, until the rain started! Still got a couple of weeks till the sheds here so plenty of time to finish it. Will need the time if all the rain we're forecast materialises!



Still got the noggins to put in and the OSB to put on top. Going to anchor it in the ground with 4"x4" fence post bits 400mm long postcreted in the ground, going to put more posts under the bit where the CNC machine is going for support.

Shed base has been done for a week or so and this morning at 6.30am the shed was delivered. Trouble is that as of Friday I'm away on holiday for a week so all I'll be doing is unpacking it from the grass verge tonight and moving it into the garden and covering it with a tarpaulin until I can start assembling it after I get back from hols. Then the router build will begin as I'll have somewhere to work and put the router!

You need a shed building party.!! . . .shame your so far away has I'd come help throw it up in exchange for burger and couple of . . . Actually got relatives in Hereford not seen for a long time so maybe could still happen . .Lol

Or Maybe next time when it's router building party time. .

If you need a hand putting the shed up give me a shout, I'm only just the other side of town after all (I take it you've moved to Gloucester now?). I can lean on a wall to keep it upright with the best of them.

All I ask if you pick a sunny day for the build, last time I helped a friend with some building work it tipped it down on us all day to the point where the site ended up flooded.

P.S. You're shed looks suspiciously like a very short and boxy car

Hmmmm shed building party......

This is what it should look like once assembled.....depends on how many beers I've had when putting it together



Yes Graham I've been living in Gloucester now (officially!) for a month. Can't wait to put the shed up (yes might take you up on the offer of a hand ) so I can get my tools (and all my RC models) out of storage and start making a mess...

How about a shed/workshop build thread? I always enjoy those.....

Got back from holiday early hours of Sunday so nothing doing on the shed build. Busy all week in the evenings so the schedule for building it is this weekend....weather permitting!! Will put up some pics of the build :)
