That's awesome, but the OCD in me would be doing something about those conduits.

I'm normally quite OLD myself but they don't bother me for some strange reason.

my original plan was to run most of the conduit on the outside of the cabin but decided against it in the end.

I'm going to be too knackered to do any training at this rate, tomorrow's going to be hell!

chump

it looks awesome. i know its way to late but did you not consider some kind of damp proof course between your bearers and your finished floor? just worried that nice floor is going to warp over time

leeince

Thanks chump.

Putting in a damp proof course isnt suggested on any of the cabin sites I looked at so I didn't consider it.

It's not something I'm very knowledgeable about if I'm honest but I  would thought that having the pressure treated bearers and the floor being treated both sides and the base being open on the left and right for ventilation that damp shouldn't be an issue?

But like I said, im no expert.

I looked into it for my shed (built the floor today), but opted to put the bearers on bricks instead. No chance of getting wet and more air flow.
I'm sure yours is fine though. I'm just anal.
Most sheds/cabins I have seen have the bearers directly on the ground.

Had a little tidy up in the garden and finished of the little shed to left while waiting for today's delivery.

I took this from upstairs so that you can see the roof.

Looks great.
Is that roof bowed in the middle?

leeince

Lol, no mate, I had to look twice when I first uploaded the picture.

It's the felt roof on the building behind mine that's making it look like that.

Oh, haha! Phew!

That's it, I'm done!!!

Gym equipment all built and in place. It was hard work building the power rack and lat attachment in the cabin, I almost had to build it backwards because of the height restriction.

Got there in the end though!!!

Time for a well earned rest.
