Hi all had the family over yesterday (to help with this) decided it was way too hot so I've been trying it on my own.

We will be adding power at some point, still got the glazing to do and adding the trim but quite pleased so far.

It will help supplement my modeling area for the messy stuff.

BigGrin Nice project ,if your using it as a new man cave for modeling I would recommend you insulate the walls and add an inner layer of wall. This will benefit you all year round and be very useful for keeping a constant temperature if your going to be painting in there too.

Also consider adding double glazing, power and heating for the winter months.Cool

I was thinking of adding plaster board walls and insulation not sure it's well enough built to worry about double glazing.

that look like a ton of fun Ken .Although with your history of modifying your models I am surprised you havent added a turret or clock tower to the shedLaugh

A thought Ken...
Did you wood-treat the outside of the panels up against the fence?

Factory shed treatment is notoriously naff and you don't want the bottoms of your panels starting to go soggy after a few years.

Also, I wouldn't use plasterboard in a shed. It will absorb moisture from the air and start to swell at the edges.
A cheap carpet on the floor makes a big difference to keeping it warmer too.

Have fun.

Roy.
