• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Mike's Workshop Build (Extension & slates)

Mike, I know it's now over 5 years since this one all started but I have had a re read (for probably the 5th time) and just wanted to ask if you did ever come in under the 3k price you thought it would.

I can't imagine the same would be true today, even with "free" slates, surely?

I had also considered a little extension like your own on mine for some additional storage of outsidy things like chairs and garden materials.

This is now several years since I first replied to the thread so it's been a great one to go back through.

I didn't keep a close eye on the costs, Darren, but I remember thinking at the time that I was around that figure.
 
Quick question Mike. Your roof. Am i right in thinking it is OSB: 100mm rafter with 100mm insulation between: breathable roof membrane: battens and then slates? use the batten as the ventilation space?
 
No. The rafters are 150mm, with 100mm insulation, then membrane, battens & slate. The point of the gap below the membrane is not for air movement, but to allow the membrane to sag between the rafters. This is what keeps the fixing holes on top of the rafters from being an issue. Air movement is important above the membrane, not below it, and this just happens naturally with any of the tile or slate options.
 
Got it.And makes perfect sense. Thanks for the help, it was the last piece in the puzzle for me
 
I know this is an old thread, but I'm still in need of it. The pictures don't show up and say 'content not viewable in your region'

Is this the same for everyone else? I'm only I'm East Yorkshire, so not an exotic location.

Correct. It is (at least for the moment as we are looking into a solution). As a result of the recent action by the Govt regarding being 18 ears to view some websites, Imgur (who Mike used to host his photos) have taken the disappointing route of simply blocking all access from the UK.

While a solution and fix is being saught, you can try using a VPN to access this thread.
 
Welcome Callum to the Woodhaven
Here is a thread detailing the problem with Imgur and how we are hoping to resolve.

Imgur Blocking UK Users

This isn't really an issue that can be sorted by the forum itself, but more to let people know. It appears that it's not possible to view Imgur photos from the UK anymore, unless it's a temporary problem, but more than likely it's happened as a result of the new Online Safety Act and the UK...

Can we assume you are planning a workshop build then?

Hi Andy,

Thanks for that. I poured a slab around 3 or 4 years ago to make a small, but decent quality garden shed. It's been on the back burner since, but now my garage is brimmed it's time to get back on with it! I can't get in there to do anything at the minute! I'll try and start a thread with some pictures when I get going (more for my sake to get advice)
 
Welcome Callum.

I'll help as much as I can, but it would be good to have the images fixed first because it saves a lot of typing. The experts will be beavering away in the background....
