Hi Miguel- thanks for your comment. I'd just be a little wary about size- my shed is 6'x5' and the panels are quite heavy. If yours is much bigger it might be a problem, but for this size it works well 👍
It is a bit late now mentioning this for you Rob but for the rest of your viewers here is a tip for removing trees. If you are going to remove a small to medium tree after you have removed the branches use the stem/trunk as a lever pushing it back and forth whilst continually undermining the roots with your spade. It usually takes 10 or 15 mins to remove tree and roots all in one, it saves a load of time and back breaking work. Love the photos.
In Canada any branch that crosses into your property can legally be cut off. Here we only own 6” below ground but to the stars straight up, cut away. Nice job by the way
How does the roof peak stop rain from getting in? Overlap of some kind? Would have been better to show the functionality of the sliding roof panels and peak. Otherwise great idea. I have my own plans too, but will have fold down panels on the three sides of the square shed. The North side will contain the door. Imagine it like tall, fold out windows, but no glass.
Thanks Ray and Jason for your comments. I made it watertight by fitting an upside down length of guttering on one of the roof panels that overlaps to the other one. Both roof panels are then secured with tower bolts on each side and tied together. It survived a storm with 80mph winds unscathed this February so I think it's ok (I was nervous though!!!)
日本語で書きます。(I wrote my message in Japanese) 20年前、妻は私に『庭に花を植えたいと』と相談しました。私は何も考えずに『良いよ！』と返事をした結果、現在、我が家の庭に私の望遠鏡を置く場所がありません。庭全体が薔薇で覆われ、庭の片隅に無理に置いた望遠鏡で天体写真を撮ると『バラ色の背景色』の星が写ります。困った困った。。。。
Rob, would you be able to share more details on the shed and the blueprint? How wide is the base? How easy was it to convert the roof into the foldable one you have? I would appreciate if you could share any info.
I feel tricked! I only clicked on this video because I thought you had come up with a simple and quick solution. No...all you came up with was time lapse.
