Oops, forgot to post up the man cave as promised. Finally finished her last week but still have no power or plumbing done yet.

Took me about 3 months trying to find the right tilt door, window and door frames, etc from Ebay but got there in the end!

Nothing flash just a 9m x 6m but It's a lot better then taken up the carport and garden shed with tools, etc.

Tim,
Dont throw old rain water tanks,they make excellent raised vegie gardens
Ive got an old 5,000 gallon tank cut in 1/4s ,four vegie gardens
No more back breaking bending,pickin of the ground

Yep, old tanks are great for vege gardens. Here's my weed garden...I mean vege garden...lol

Handly tip for some of you home builders
When buying stuff for the man cave,look at auction places
I bought most of my shed from these joints
200mm C purlin,new from retailer youll pay $15+++ a metre
Bought 200mm C purlin (new factory seconds,maybe a scratch or two,bent on one end or something)
$3-$5 a metre
Shop around for screws and bolts
1 bolt supplier wanted for 100 purlin bolts $50
Bought exactly the same from another supplier $15
Tex screws the same ,1 place $50 for 500 screws
I bought 1,000 screws for $50
Roof screws of ebay
$30 for a box of 1,000 65mm roof screws (new these are between $150-$200 a box)
My shed to date,yep not finished (its 12M x 12M ATM),will be 18M x 12M when finished
To date cost is around 3K
No concrete floor,yet,but includes the 6Mx6M raised floor for the games room (flooring alone was $400)
To buy a new shed and get built,youll pay aroun 15-20K (thats a 6M x 9M)that includes the concrete

Forgot to add the beers in that equation,but thats a given for life so wont add that in
