I have recently found the most amazing skip near me – seriously, it’s the mother lode of skips!! I can’t begin to tell you what I have got out of there (I can only assume a very rich person is going through a divorce, eviction or the decluttering of all time?) but here is the [...]

CD player for The Shed!

Walking past a local skip the other day I found this old CD player… (minus the power supply!) Taking it home, I managed to hot wire it (via an old connector from the bits box) up to an old modem power supply that I’d kept for no good reason, but which seemed to have about [...]

Well, the votes are now in for Shed of the Year competition 2011 and, once again, I have not won. . . Strangely however, I did come fifth in my category (Workshop shed) which is exactly the same place I came when I took part in the competition a couple of years ago!? Curiouser and [...]

So, this year I have decided to give another go at winning, or at least doing better than I did last time (coming a measly fifth in my category of workshop shed) in Shed of the Year competition! I’ve been working long and hard lately, making several improvements and additions to Clivey’s Shed. . . [...]
Eric is dead! Long live, er. . . ???

Back in April last year (was it really that long ago!?) I posted about Shed Night III, when my old mate GG and myself crafted Eric, my superb ‘made-for-tall-people’ bike out of bits of other bikes… See the post here >> It’s been a hard year for poor old Eric, and I am sad to [...]

Following the huge success of Shed Night 4 (in which our gallant heroes performed the gargantuan task of clearing out my shed workshop) I seem to have right-royally mucked things up again recently by filling said-shed so full of found items, spill-over from the house and general rubbish, that I can no longer even get [...]
Shed Night 4 – Enter Shedman

This latest installment of Shed Night saw a bit of a departure from normal activity. . . I’ve been having a bit of a problem with my shed recently – it is so full of accumulated stuff that I was finding it impossible to even get in it, let alone accomplish anything useful/creative in there. [...]

Here’s a little thing the lovely SR has just bought me – sums it all up really. . .! Been really busy working on LOTS of things lately, hence the lack of posts for a while… Stay tuned. . .!
