Being a professional builder what l can see that you have achieved , you would put a lot of so called builder's to shame . You have done a awesome job and should be very proud well done Mark.
Don’t look closely! Haha thanks mate, appreciate it
Yeah as a roofer and former concreter, goddamn. Man's got a fine knack for it.
A Professional Builder you say!
Mate what a man cave. All your hard work is paying off. Well done Mark should be proud of yourself 👍🏼
Cheers mate!
Awesome. Every man needs a shed. There will always be things to finish, don’t worry about them. It’s a good feeling to know that you did it yourself and saved some coin. Well done. The house build will be exciting. Another great video. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Cheers Pete! It’s a hard slog but well worth it!
Something to be proud of mark. I’m jealous of the whole set up!
Cheers mate!
Stumbled across your channel/episode yesterday, just wanted to say well done you should be proud of yourself. I consider myself a lot like you with your up-cycle DIY, and have a go attitude. I’ve learnt so much off UA-cam to help build my garage/mancave. I’ve subscribed now keep up the good work
Bloody rippa place Mark, both the shed as well as the location. Great effort with doing it all on your own!
Thanks man
Awesome shed mate and a very nice property you have. Love the Adelaide hills. Thats my goal to have something like that on about 5-10acres with a shed for my toys and a little living quarters.
My little getaway haven.
Awesome work mate.
Cheers mate, it’s been my dream for many years also!
Damn i’m jealous. Looks so good - perfect property and shed. House will be the icing on the cake
Thanks mate
Watched this ages ago but watched it again, such a sick setup should be proud of what you have built
I put my shed up. Will do it again when I move.
I put my hoist up outside. But I don’t work on nice cars.
Outside means you don’t waste shed space and the do take up lots of space.
I modified the hoist (2. Post) to also be able to drive the mower up on it and another jib to lift the bike up to get under it to service etc. awesome 😎
3rd jib for butchering sheep. So it’s a huge benefit to have the hoist outside. And yes I built my shed high enough for the hoist and made the slab thicker but then put the hoist up outside haha
Haha nice
I’d like a hoist outside for dirty jobs eventually also
Remember golden fleece always liked seeing thier servo sign, good work and a sweet bit of land
Looks fantastic mate. Exactly what the wife and I want to do in Tassie. 5 acres with great outlook, build a big shed for temporary living and workshop, build our dream home. Inspirational to see what you've acheived on a budget and with plenty of sweat equity. Thanks for sharing and the transparency on costs. Enjoy 🍻
Personally, i love it, plenty of space, not cluttered, beauty scenary, acre's of land for potential future projects, kitchen and bathroom👌❤️💯 Couldnt ask for more🙌
🙌🏼
@@TheIronEmpire You've done an incredible job with the place, look forward to further update's in the future, anywho, enjoy the rest of youre weekend, take care
Mark, dude, $11K supply for that is stunning bro. I just bought a 6x4 for $6K (with 1.8 sliding and window, skillion, 2.7 height, new mindyou) - the price of tin has gone thru the roof. good to see another bloody DIY out there mate, my fitout will be all DIY my solar gear just arrived this week too so it will be 100% off grid :) love your work mate.
Nice man, sounds like you’ll have a great setup!
Hi Mark, you have done a great job with the property and should be very happy. The house will look great when it is all finished. Regards Jules.
Jive Talking Garage
An awesome shed. Beautiful views too.Thanks for the tour.
You’re welcome! Cheers
#shedgoals and #farmgoals in one..right there.!!! ❤
Love the set up Mark… 👌🏼
Cheers mate
Great shed you should be proud of what you have accomplished so far.
I am mate, thanks!
Goals right there, awesome work . Looking forward to future updates.
Cheers mate
awesome job man, you have given me the inspiration to tidy up my own shed and do some much needed work on it, thanks and keep churning out these vids there a pleasure to watch
Awesome to see Mark, you hunted down a bargain, networked with mates and put in a great effort for a brilliant work place (man cave). Something we all should do.
I take my hat off to you Mark!
Great work, Great Position. 👍
Thanks Alan
Hit up Levett earthworks Kersbrook. Just over the hill 👍
Cheers mate, will do
Killer shed, and once the house goes in it will be an epic spot to live, such a nice outlook there.
It’s come a long way from the earlier video.
Thanks mate!
Love that view man, Keep at it. nice work
Me too! Cheers mate
Man that looks great.
It has a beautiful view & so nice & green. I love seeing other peoples sheds
Cheers mate
Awesome job on the epic shed mate! Just finished building my own 10 x 7 shed and it was no small task . Total understand the work that goes into getting a project like this done🤙
Massive hey! Good work mate
Living the dream!!
🤞🏼
Awesome vid Mark thanks for thr insight. You have done an amazing job and the price was mint we are building now and will come in at double that so you have definitely done well 👍👍
Cheers mate
Thanks Mark, I really enjoyed the conducted tour of your property and shed. Cheers
Thanks Pete
I've just finished my UC Torana and I want your rims and tyres you have on yours. Are they 15x8's on the back. that's what I would like if you thought they fit ok. 7" on the front, $$s delivered to Bundaberg QLD.
Shed building is one of the hardest games out there, sure anyone can build a shed, but doing it for a living and doing it right is a different story. I did it for about 20yrs and made good $$s doing it. I can tell you that you have done very well. Better than most I've seen over the years.
My tip: find a local shed builder (not a house builder) have him measure up all the flashings needed to finish it off and polish up a few things. like the overhang eve you have. It's that last 10% when done properly can make all the difference. 2-3 days tops even if he doesn't finish, you'll know how to. Oh, and when you paint the roller doors, paint all of them don't try and match a colour and think they will look the same, and buy the best paints.
Thanks for the tips mate! Yeah, it’s always the last little bit that makes it look unfinished and separates it from a “pro build” but it will get there!
We got these wheels years ago mate, they are Street Pro’s by VPW. I think they are 15x6 and 15x8.5
But I’d suggest slightly narrower on the rear if you’re planing to run it this low!
@@TheIronEmpire Ok thanks, so do you sell a similar set and post Australia wide, eg. cheaper convo pro look alike rims. Or maybe a set that will fit and suit the old school torana. Not after high end wheels, just a nice set of 15". cheers
Awesome shed, it's so satisfying doing stuff yourself no matter how long it takes. We'll done 👌
Thanks mate! Agreed
Great vid mark 👌👍
Cheers mate
Congratulations great job doing everything on your she'd you did exceptionaly well budget wise. One of the blokes I work with had a 12 X 6 meter she'd built and concrete floor was 50 k my sister in law lives on 20 acres at Forreston.they have stunning views as well .
Awesome mate, I think I done well!
Forreston is a beautiful place!
Love it mate, well done.
Thanks 👍
What a great setup mate, I picked up second hand shed 12 x 9 for 5k 10 years ago same style but with sliding doors at one end. A couple of days too pull down and three weeks to put back up 😂. Wish I had another one same size now, never have too many sheds keep up the good work 👍
That’s the problem is it, the more room, the more shit you have! Haha
@@TheIronEmpire yeah your probably right 😂 mine started out prob more man cave pool table bar one end now progressing in to work shop the ither
Love your motivation brah, once the house is done turn the bedroom area into a pool room with herbarium for a couple of snakes, always intriguing. You guys don't have the humidity like us qlders, but the aircon is the saving grace for sure.
I can’t do humid! Haha cheers mate
Hey bro you popped up on my feed, love the shed, love the fairlane too 👌 keep up the good work
Cheers Dan!
You need to start on the weekender next and then eventually move up there permanently 👍👍👍
The shed is a beauty you have done real well with it
Cheers David!
Very bucolic and tranquil !!
👌🏼
Love it mate. You are motivating me right now!
Get amongst it!
Mate you are what I call “an achiever” that’s bloody brilliant
My only suggestion would be on the old bench you probably want steel lining so you can have a Greasey oily component pull it out of the car and drop it on a bench and it’s basically a timber benchtop that’s been lined with 1 mm or less steel sheet so the oil doesn’t penetrate the bench……
You’ve even got Aircon
The only other suggestion I would make and you know this already if you put in a two post Hoist you can now park one car from outside underneath and have one on the hoist so there’s not bad bang for your buck there either……
They’ve come right down in price
Best shed I’ve seen in a long time mate keep up the good work
Even a double bed for a bit of an afternoon delight with the Mrs
Haha thanks mate, gotta give it all a go!
Thanks for the suggestions mate
These benches are actually laminated so they clean up super easy, but I do a have a big heavy duty number I plan on having outside under a “lean too” super heavy filthy shit, also planning to do all the fab work and painting out there also.
The hoist is defiantly on the cards mate, wheels are in motion!
Thanks for watching! 🙌🏼
Thanks for sharing your achievements Mark, done a great job, beautiful coutryside, i used to live in Kersbrook, been following from day one, looking forward to the house build & future episodes
Thanks mate!
9 x 18, HOLY CRAP! DIY and upcycling a good way to keep those costs down. Well played 👌
Cheers mate
Amazing spot, Amazing shed well done
Thanks Craig, im super happy with it all
Miss my shed great work! I love watching every Saturday morning
Cheers mate
Looks great Mark. Nice and tidy and I loved the out side lunch area. Nice place to chill. Judge is getting big. I got my Staffy around the same time you got Judge. They grow so fast.
Cheers mate.
Thanks mate! They sure do! ❤️🐶

Quote of the day "Got until Im dead" my new fav thanks bro!
Haha ain’t it the truth!
Awesome setup mate, your motivation and enthusiasm is very uplifting 👍🏻
Cheers mate! 🙌🏼
What a mad pad Mark brilliant bloke 👌👍
You had a fair crack at it mate no one should be judging what you've done mate what a phenomenal view and property..
Great content as per normal mate awesome stuff Mark 👌👍
Cheers Scott!
Darren I agree with you he has done a great job,I know what it's like to do it by yourself Mark great job.
So good Mark. It's cool you have a crack at everything yourself and do an awesome job of it all.
Cheers Phil!
Great job mate.
A space to be proud of.
The countryside there looks beautiful.
You can save heaps by looking for bargains and doing the work yourself. I love your DIY attitude.
I’ve expanded to 3 sheds now, (20x12, 16x9 & 7x9) all built by myself to save money for the toys to put in them.
It feels like more of an achievement when you can build your own shed too.
Keep up the great work mate. 👍
Nice mate! Yeah, ya gotta work with what you got to get ahead!
Enjoy your toys! 👌🏼🙌🏼
@@TheIronEmpire
Yeah mate, I’m a diesel fitter by trade so one shed is a mechanical workshop, a work from home business. I build my own cars, but also do mechanical/servicing work for people in my local area. Good to be able to do what you enjoy and work from home.
Great shed bro, hope someday you get it all finished.
🛠
Awesome work Mark, fantastic and well thought out shed
Cheers Ross
All talking was fine Mark! Great tour, great man cave! Greater view! Very jealous!
🙌🏼
Awesome mate. Cover the roof in 2nd hand solar panels and reduce your power bill, who knows if you put enough on the power company will pay you
It’s on the list! 🙌🏼
What a cool spread Mark, even though you think it's a bit rough, the up-cycling is the way to go these days and that adds character too. AND you have the satisfaction that you did it yourself ... that's the cool thing! Awesome stuff mate, fully jealous. Cheers TJ
Cheers TJ!
Great video Mark, such a beautiful part of the Adelaide hills.
I have just built a shed on my property at Freeling it’s 9M x 9M it cost me
10K to buy 9K to concrete and 6.5K to build.
So 25.5K and that’s without power and light yet!
You have done amazing with what you have, so jealous mate.
Thanks Mate. It’s no cheap task but well worth it! Cheers mate
Well done. It might not be perfect but it’s functional and you can be proud of what you have achieved. Look forward to seeing more as time goes on.
Thanks Bill 👍🏼
Mark you should be so proud of urself, looks freaking awsome mate. Gave me some ideas for my shed(14mtrs X 8mtrs).👍
Get onto it mate!
Make sure you leave that room in front of the cars for bench space! 8m would be good, don’t go any less!
Great 👍 content Marc.
Regards from William Mount Gambier South Australia 🇦🇺
Thanks mate
Killer shed bro it's awesome to see, it's got a vibe too it, and what a nice valley your in. Top spot and it's coming together nicely
Thanks Rick, I’m very happy with the spot I’m in!
Fantastic job, well done
Cheers Ralph
Well done Mark, very impressive. I enjoy your videos very much as well. Keep up the great work mate.
Cheers mate, much appreciated
Fukin awsome! I'm planning on building a shed soon,but keep putting it on the back burner cause of cost,not that I've priced anything out yet,but I know ballpark figures, however,amongst other things you've mentioned, I'd never even considered overrun or damaged stock from suppliers.
I only cottoned on to your channel, like,yesterday, but,for what it's worth,you've just won ya self another dedicated follower.
Keep up the good work,ole mate.
Great video, great shed, awesome Rotti
Great Spot! I really like what you did with the place and finding it at a discount like that was a total score.
Very happy with it
Only just come across this channel a few days back. I gotta say you got some sick car & that shed is dope AF. Love that Torana my mate had that same model back in the day. use to shred.
1#, shed envy is real.
2# don't see rural SA that green very often. Beautiful view from the new window.
3# 89 YZ is a keeper, you wheeling it outside while saying "ive got to throw out some junk" had me grabbing my car keys!
In the hills here we’re usually green for around 3 months of the year longer than the outer areas like gawler or beyond the ranges.. very lucky! But this yeah is next level!
HAha yeah the YZ ain’t goin in the bin.. but it’s up for grabs
Awesome shed brother be very proud 🤘😎 Keen to see what else you do with the property and shed! Be great when you have some hoists in there too.
Agreed! Thanks mate
Such a wicked shed, and it’s cool that you have a small living space so if you need to really get after it or just need some space you have a place to crash.
Cheers mate!
Dream shed right there!
🙌🏼
Great work Mate. Endless energy.
Wouldn’t say that haha
Super job mate, it costed me 67,000 us for my shed its 14,000 syft.
Must be a nice shed mate! 👌🏼
Should get Moondog to paint the iron empire logo on the front of the shed, would look pretty neat.
Agreed
simply brilliant
👌🏼
Well done mate that came up awesome looking forward to content from the shed ✌️
Cheers mate
Old solid core doors make excellent work benches to mark
Good call
Great score and building yourself that's how I'd do it
🙌🏼
you have done well mate . i built a shed in the last 12 months 10 mt square 3.5 mt on the short side the kit cost $15000 the concrete was $5500 laid . been doing my walls with that black formply they use for concrete form work , just put up my china quality 4 ton 2 post hoist $2650 (lifts my landcruiser ute easy ) ive easy spent $25 to $28000 and its half the size of yours . good luck on your future lotto winnings filling that fuel tank
The times have changed a little, I bought this around 3 years ago. But hey, still achievable if we work for it!
Good work mate, enjoy your shed!
Yer bro up north got a garage now home. Insulation really need fast if livin in it. But works well.
Jack of all trades..well done 👍
Master of fuck all
@@TheIronEmpire master of the Empire ☺️

Get into it! 🙌🏼
