Mine is for sitting and drinking, filled with antiques from 1830 to 1910. Just rearranging it agan ATM, lots of early blacksmith stuff, could call it a working mancave/museum, Bit of a walk down memory lane,Can't put anymore pics on bummer, Like old tools etc last much longer, Also have 70 kg anvil on a stump and a blacksmith furnace, Anyone welcome to came and have a look . not much stuff under 100yrs old
Bloody nice setup there MC!
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.
Thanks Mark,Quote:

Mark
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.
Never really had a man cave, just no room at all here to fit one, so I have a 6 drawer toolbox, a large chest full of fishing gear, and various power tools slotted in where ever they will fit in the garage. The new house though has plenty of room to get everything organised in one, easily accessible, spot.
Wow 3D some fantastic stuff in there.

Hey 3dogs,
Here's a photo of some historical stuff in my collection
The milk can came off my Grandmothers' dairy farm, near Newcastle(Minmi)
the wooden barrel came from England courtesy of my Pop,
The old wooden telephone came from a signal box at Cootamundra(NSW)
The white can is a fuel can for old railway trikes/quads,
and the old phone on the right came from Sydney(on what they call the Goods Road, a freight only railway line)
and the old kerosene lamp(on top of the wooden barrel) came from the same place

There is already a man shed somewhere here, pics of mine in it
You use tht cross cut saw winne??
Yep after it put me in hospital
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.Quote:

Don't worry mudski,
I only took the photo's after I had a bit of a sort through and tidy up. It didn't look like that yesterday morning.
Mark
Bring it up Mudski I hate seeing our history lost, One of my Ice Box/Chests is 1854 from the Shammrock Hotel in Bendigo. I which I mouseproofed holds the dog and bird food. Wait till you see what I picked up for $50 next Week. Anything old I'll reco and RE USE
Sounds like you've lived in the wrong time 3dogs!
Not really just seems funny how one vice I have is over 200 yrs old and works like it was just made. Let alone all the othe stuff I have, 1860 tilt top chess board made from 7 different timbers, My favourite piece.Really need to see this one in the flesh, even have matching 1860 balloon back Walnut chair
Cost on Ebay $80, had it valued through the NGV and its worth $5000, good pick up I'd say
Here is mine from the other thread, a lot has changed since then like that Daihatsu is gone from the front and we now have an undercover deckQuote:

Hey James,
Was a Train Driver for 25 years, State Rail, National Rail, PacNat and SSR.
Out of the game now(running my own business) but collected a lot of stuff when I was there.
Nice to know another driver has an interest in Patrols. Do you know Parso?(started on the job together)
