Morning JP - it’s nice to see that I’m not the only one who starts a job and then discovers problems halfway through! Glad you got them out and it all worked out!
Whoopsie. Building the shop around the ladder. Hey ho it's out and the work goes on. Thanks John. Take care & stay safe. On that note, I did notice a time or 3 when the Base Camp mask could have been in use. Nudge nudge.
Hi John, I'm beginning to think that (like a previous commenter) with the amount of ground you have, find another spot and build a proper workshop from the foundations up. Once built, you could redo the barn properly for gardening equipment and storage. 🏴👍🏻 All the best for 2025 🍻
Hi Ged. Problem is the French planning laws and the property tax I would need to pay for a new construction. I could wait years for approval. I also like renovating rather than starting from scratch. Regards JP
@@Smallbarnworkshop you are right John, I am having the same problem with the shack outside the house I just bought here. There is a fine line between getting simple authorisations and permits. Bottom line I have to do the best I can with 23 usable square meters to fit in all my tools. In the process, I have become the best caster wheels customer in my local hardware shop😊

Glad you enjoyed it Robbie. Regards JP
Ladder storage is always an issue for me! Good start JP. Happy New Year mate.
Morning Paul. Yes, for that 0.1% of time you need to use them they are invaluable but other than that they are a pain to store. Regards JP

That was a bit of a pain JP, now it’s done it’s given you more space to work with inside. Thanks for the video.👍👍
Hi Terry. Yes, I didn’t realise I had pinned it in. I did that 18 months ago. Regards JP
Cracking progress... slowly slowly catchy monkey 😊
Absolutely Iain. I will do another couple of hours today. Regards JP
