Every man needs a shed
a big shed
not for the wife and kids
yours only
preferably detached from the house
great for poker with the mates and all your gear
this is mine
MAN CAVE!!!
--Which requires a couch or some form of seating device in poor condition, yet must be comfortable - not valued at over $5.23.
--A bar fridge - that can keep beers just off freezing temp!
--TV (32-52inch) - obviously now has to be digital - can't use a set top box though as there's no room in the man cave for tech issues (Hi def optional).
--Pool table, foosball, pinball machine or whatever takes your fancy.
--Weight set - bench etc - slowly rusting in the corner.
--Card table, including card decks, chips etc.
--Radio (for when the half-full beer can hits/smashes the telly - can still hear the score).
--Home brew kit.
--Can crusher mounted cleverly so that the can drops througha shute & straight into recycle bin (we blokes do our bit for the environmenty thingo).
A few out of date calendars with rude pictures
Lot of junk collected over the years that is too good to put in the bin
Shelf for the items that the missus want me to fix
Space for the items that are really important to fix (RC plane, RC car, boat parts etc....)
Lock on the inside of the door
Shelf with 127 stubbies holders
yep love it
love my rusty weight bench collecting dust
love the beer fridge
love the remote control car sitting in the corner
love that work/tool bench
the shed is ours, never to be taken by the Mrs.
My space is in the garage, have a small block with no shed, once the MRS asked me why I never cleaned my tools, just stared at her and said nothing.... few days later I did some work on her car so I got all my spanners and greasy tools in the dishwashing machine and ran a 85c cleaning round. She saw me taking the tools out when was cleaned and she nearly killed me....... never asked silly questions about tools ever again![}:)][}:)][}:)]
What the ****?
no one has mentioned anything to do with fishing gear or surfboards...
You guys should be ashamed of yourselves
I wanna know how yous top fibreglass dust getting on all that crap, or weld slag dropping on the couch.
The back patio is man-space and the shed is for building stuff - or the other way around. A bloke needs 2 areas
can I come and hang in one of your sheds ? because i cant get inside mine because of all the good " it will come in handy one day" stuff .
My house mate is a magpie and has very many of what he truly only needs one of.
machinery chainblocks are your friend !!!etc welders and a 2 and a half tonne universal milling machine .!!!! looking at getting a lathe .
Wear shoes in the shed at all times
i wouldn't call a shed anything under 40 foot in length.
The only essential item that every shed must have is a SOLID workbench, with a vice attached.
Everything else is just gravy
I luv the single wheel. Just in case you need a wheel that size! Good work.
The womens movement has developed and men has drifted out of the limelight.
I actually had to date women to get laid, but in a perfect world I'd prefer the caveman "clonk" method.
My shed has a solid workbench, loud stereo and most of my toys (surfboards, kite gear, bmx, mountain bikes, skateboards)
The couch, pinball machines and bar fridge ended up taking over the dining room along with my homage to my childhood...
Sheds are for building stuff and bike maintenance etc...pinball and bar fridges belong in the house- and yes I do have a very understanding lady....
Got hold of an open fireplace off of gumtree (1000 bucks) never used but sat outside so i refurbished it to go into ma new home ;-) turned out a treat ...
You can save alot of $$$$ If you have a good shed.
