  • Oh yes there’s plenty of space  for more, was thinking myself of putting more on the other side. Would have done three compartments but didn’t want the size of it to take over. 

    Stupid question but  how can you tell if wood had been treated? The wood I used was pallet wood sold by a none profit wood recycling place.

    Hello Edd missed you you doing any pallet projects, me back on the shed after a long time

    Most pallet wood is Heat treated normally says like HT written on it

    Nice compost area, where abouts are you?

  • Oh dear hope your ok? I’m a radiographer so I understand the pitfalls of limbs in casts!

    Im in sunny sheffield and my allotment is part of a huge plot overlooking the gorgeous Peak District . Very blessed.

    the shed was a bargain at end of season sales at wickes recently. Amazing what Pinterest and a lick of paint can do! The sorry old shed that came with the plot was lovingly recycled to make my first raised beds....they won’t last bit they got me started while I find some scaffolding boards !?

    This it the time to be waited on by othersimage

    Edd thats about right, glad it was the left hand and not the right

    Went to allotment plot today still very stormy so rather windy out, did some strimming and small bit of measuring of wood and sawing then the rain suddenly came down  - so that was it
