Yo Ian, you're right, five it is......I reckon we need a photo of him to see if he is standard height.

What do you think?

I have a chair in my shed. Some where. I normally end up putting things on it to keep them off the floor.

Any one know if you have to use weatherproof electrical outlets in sheds/garages in England. We do here in Denmark and every thing has to be earthed too. (domestic sockets are only two pin only earthed in the bathroom). Just to make it even more fun, if there is an earth involved you are not allowed to DIY it and are supposed to use an electrician.

If I ever get around to building a new shed there will be some serious DIY going on I can tell you.

Nice try Ron! Rest assured I'm easily tall enough for all the rides at Alton Towers!! :nahnah:

Ha ha - in truth I never sit on the chairs they're just there for storage, I prefer to spray standing up, so to speak ;-)

In the absence of a name, I'd guess most of assumed you were a bloke. Nice to see we were right! :lol

No, you don't "have" to use weatherproof stuff in outbuildings in the UK...... but ALL electrical installation work must be carried out by a certified electrician (yeh right, I've been an electrician for 31 years and I've never needed no stinkin' certificate. Sue me)
 

Wow....you guys must be rich and have maids in your hobby room. Well, sit back and don't judge(or do judge, you're call.) This is a modeler's room,Part 1. Parts 2 and 3 are spread out through the house when SWMBO isn't around. As for a pic of me, well, the interweb people have warned me never to post one again as it frightens young children and makes old ladies cry.​

When did that happen? I can recall the UK being the land of DIY.

As it happens I do have a C And G some place that says I am an installation electrician. Not worth squat in Denmark. Here you can change any existing installation (if there is no earth) New installations need a guy with a bit of paper though.

Same with water and heating by the way.

Dont worry Munkster, you should see the stick some of us have had to put up with.......Still dont get you off posting a mug shot though!! Come on get it over with Rob.

That looks like an old plan cabinet Simon ? the sort that draughtsmen and offices had,worth their weight in gold and it has made a first class workbench.

Sorry, C&G is no good, you need a certificate and guess what? you have to pay for it
 
yes it was many years ago an oil company i worked for was dumping them the bench is a flip top for reading large scale drawings just so happend the draws underneath fitted in to the void normally taken up by the draftsman feet,space is always an issue so i put it under. there were 6 draws but bottom three were a pain to open so i turnd the bottom half - divided the remaining three into sectioned of areas and hay presto my bench need a bar stool to sit at it but i guess you can't have everything. only other addition is the plate of glass excelent tip for keeping drawings safe from paint ect

And a very tidy place it has become! Nice and light too!

My hide away from the tele. Coronation, East Enders etc.

Like to stand a lot while working so bought 2nd hand a high clerks chair for sitting while working. £12 & fitted a base with castors.

The third picture is the gardener's incubator I have insulated & keeps a temp of about 12/15 degrees (adjustable) above the garage temp.

O.K. loads of new members' so time to dig out this old chestnut...

Not only your 'Sheds', but a photo of your mushes please.

Don't be shy....Say cheese! We could all do with a laugh during this s**t weather.

Cheers,

Ron

Here's a gentle nudge:-
