Title: garden shed
Post by: matt-sboro on 06 November 2008, 19:02:02
i'm after a new shed for me garden and i'm finding it difficult to find a cheap one.

prefer a metal one but would take a wooden one

fairly largish as im sticking my tools in there and maybe my weights depending on size.

any helpers?


also - how do you keep spiders out?

A few conkers  in the corners will keep the spiders out. Dunno why but apparently it works. :y

Don't you like spiders? You wouldn't have liked my old (deceased now unfortunately) pet 'Fred'...

Got a good one from Screwfix a few months back and it has done evrrything I want and more. They have a good range of sizes from normal ones right up to the beast I got (14'x10'). They come in fairly cheaply too and if you do a pour for a decent floor then there are no significant gaps for the creepies to get in through
