    Hey TD. The fifth row down and the pic on the right is one of those fridges to put an ice block in the top of isn't it? If so you want another? Its quite rooted though. I am down here in Rosebud and we are doing a massive cleanout of the shed and found one of those in there. Its in bad need of a restore but the enamel coated innards still seem good. The outside leaves a lot to be desired though. Otherwise I am chucking it.
    I wont post my man cave as its always such a mess. Just aswell my work bench is 4metres long to fit all my crap onto...

    Thanks Mark,

    The file cabinets under bench, hold my sanders, circular saws, angle grinders, planes and their accessories.

    The shelf under the bench with all the cases contain framing gun, finishing gun, coil gun, heat gun, rattle gun and crates full of stuff that I should throw away but can't

    Mark

    Come on 3 dogs, I am hanging to see yours,

    Love the antique stuff, I have a shed load of old railway stuff(old circuit phones signals and builders plates), and cannot wait to display it properly.

    First thing I noticed was the Clyde plate ;-) Are you on/were on the Railway mate? I kicked off with Pacific National in Newcastle in 2008 and I'm now with Aurizon in Newy. I've been involved in steam and preservation since about 2002.

    I've collected a few "goodies" from my time on the job and ebay.

    It's one of those sheds that you see or walk into and think, wow I'd love a setup like this, even though you know full well that you would never use most of the stuff in it, you just want it

    Mate the stuff I have(tools) I collected when renovating my old house in Sydney, when I bought the new house I thought what am I going to do with this stuff, luckily 12 months ago started my own show doing handy man stuff and now all that stuff is invaluable.
