I built my own shed, too, but I've outgrown it. The goal is to move to the foothills in the next few years and build a monster shed so that I can fill it up with tools and motorbikes.
Keep posting those pics!

What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Just for giggles whilst I'm working on one of the big 250UB32 columns for the shed, he's what I got up to on the weekend. Drove to a country property outside Ballarat and picked up this monster. 3800 long, 400 deep and over 1650 high. Probably close to 450 kgs. Now suspended on welded brackets and chains.

What do you have to lift something like that in your shed
A student now but really want to weld everyday. Want to learn everything about everything. Want to become a knower of all and master of none.

Small overheaad crane to lift it off the trailer and then I used the wife's forklift to get it into place.Farmwelding wrote:What do you have to lift something like that in your shed
We put the overhead beam and chain in last year. Best thing ever to save our backs.

Love the pics. That shed is just about spot-on for the size I'd like. As I always say, "big enough for the bikes, the tools to build them, and a test ride when I'm finished!"

You are right Josh, that's a '74 DeTomaso Pantera. My baby.Poland308 wrote:Just throwing it out there. But that doesn't look like a scrap car. nice bikes the kind you can enjoy.
It looks to be in immaculate condition from the limited photo. But the deck spoiler, isn't that aftermarket? Would be worth a King's Ransom if it were a RH driver!!!!uzz32soarer wrote: You are right Josh, that's a '74 DeTomaso Pantera. My baby.

Yes a RHD model would be nice, but rarer than golden rocking horse shit as only 17 came to Australia, although quite a few made it to the UK. Mine is a Euro spec LHD as it came from the factory.cj737 wrote:It looks to be in immaculate condition from the limited photo. But the deck spoiler, isn't that aftermarket?

Mmmm....Phillip Island!
I rode that track for 2 perfect days last year. Hard work but such a beautiful track to ride, perfect surface and amazing corners. I could knee-surf across Southern Loop for a week and not get tired of it.

Well I've managed to complete the first three columns, painted and erected. One more is completed but in the paint bay waiting for the wife, and this morning I'm prepping number five. Scale and surface rust removal ready to weld.
They look bloody big standing up like that and took a bit of handling to erect on my own, But it's a start.
