    Hmm, from a practical point of view, the ply is a quicker option, but you miss the opportunity to pack and straighten out any bows in the wall. Mind you, you have steel studs, so there shouldn't be any defects. Battens will be cheaper, but the ply also gives you more opportunities to fix the vgroove. Both ways have their merits, what do you think @MudRunnerTD

    Love the drop saw recessed into the bench bloody awesome, beats puuting it on the ground and packing up with bits of wood ! ! Really do like the timer gives a heap of warmth and character. .

    Cost and time consideration, thanks Nico_thinking of getting some local hired help as been too long finishing.

    Looks good mate, Too be honest i would Gyprock that all day. V Pine will be a fair bit of work but not crazy.. The metal studs should be straight and not bowed so no wall straightening required but you can't fix V Pine to them so you will need to batten them out with some 42x19 so you have some fixing for your lining boards. Buy a Brad gun if you are going to use Vpine though otherwise you are just doing way more work than needed.

    Obviously if you Gyprock it then you just screw the sheet straight o the studs. You will need Furring Channel to batten out the ceiling, again, if you are using vpine then you will need to batten out again to fix too. Furring Channel you just screw the Gyprock too it.

    If you sheet with Ply first then all your battening will be null and void so this may end up a cheaper option.. Again. Gyprock for the win in my opinion.

    @rusty_nail @MudRunnerTD thanks for feed back. Bit of a wood project along with wall construction of roadbase stabilised with 4% cement (rammed earth/no clay).

    The ceiling down below has raked section off flat and upstairs (loft) is as pic above. As mentioned, looking at getting some hired help to finish off internal fit out/lining, including the pluming/electrical. So with labour cost fixing v_joint on battens tending toward sheeting with ply first and then v-joint. Catching up with a builder tomorrow. Have done all except sheeting of roof (good lady and myself). Couple of pics.

    That looks fantastic. I still think Gyprock would actually provide a great contrast to all your other textures. Colour on Gyprock (Even white) might just Pop!.. V Pine might actually clash with your floor a little. You might consider some higher quality face sheet ply and fix it up as a finished surface, that would give you the timber colour you are chasing and the 1200 x 2400 sheets would look great.

    Firewood collection is starting to look good. I have the week between Xmas and new year at home so will manage to double it again for a solid 2-3 seasons worth of stock.
