Shed walls

I’m continuing the same principles for the walls as for the shed base. Namely using thicker materials than usual to ensure good structure. All of the frames and joints were pre-drilled and screwed.

I started each wall by building the frame on the shed base which I know is flat and level – makes checking for square etc much easier.

Once the basic wall frame is made it’s stacked out of the way:

I then put a couple of walls in place and used some clamps to hold them together at the corner. You’ll notice in the right hand side wall I’ve made an opening for a window – a double glazed unit recycled from the conservatory we took down a while back:

The frames for the front wall were much narrower to make room for door frame to be fitted. You’ll see them in progress on the floor here:

Here’s all the basic frames constructed and clamped together:

Final part here is to secure them to the base frame – achieved with lots of 4inch screws :)
