Ok all,
Who has the biggest, most equiped shed to work on their VW,

or like me and cramped in a car port

matt

lets hear about wot you got

Warb 路

carport, nice and cosy,

if "most equiped shed " was at one end of the scale, i'd sit nicely at the other end!.

But hey at least i got a vw, right. 馃榾

Baja Wes 路

I think Brad's gunna win this game 馃檪

kafer70 路

My sheds 6x7.25 and half the size it needs to be. Rider mower , 6 bikes cement mixer etc etc and all my spare parts.
But I wouldn't be without it.:P

manxed69 路

My Manx lives is a space that 250mm wider and 1 metre longer than it is. It's OK if your working on the engine or front suspension if you push it back and forwards, but anything from the side is a real bugger.

fish 路

ahhh the great outdoors.
:cry :cry :cry

fish 路

Robo 路

I got a cave under the house, with all my tools and machinery where I hide from the wife & kids, I could fit four bus's in there If the bloody door was higher!

Rob.....

Bizarre 路

Got a shed - just cant drive to it. Did an extension that crosses into the old driveway :o

Now i just have a great place to store bits 馃榾

Any other stuff is done in the front driveway or on the street.

Other wise - its off to V Force 馃槈. Lucky for me they are just round the corner!

Robo 路

Hey Fish
The old splitty looks a bit happier there, than it did in the scrub!

Andy 路

I have two nice garages, but have trouble walking in both, so the poor Kombi lives outside 馃檨
Still contemplating knocking a wall out the house and make good use of the spare bed rooms 馃榾
Just don't let the missus know :o

type82e 路

I have a raised house at the moment
so can fit about 4 cars/ kombies underneath and a shitload of parts
but in about 8 months were moving to 2.5 acres and I get a 6 car shed woohoo!!!
i'm sick of working in cramped workspaces
having to watch my head

Buggy Boyz 路

Well I have a total of 13m x 13m of floor space with a 4.5m roof in the main shed. It is currently looking a little bare but I do have parking for about 20 cars outside of this now. Also have a 2 car carport.
Equipment wise I still have floor and wall space so I am getting soft. I have a few odd tools lying around ( ones DAZ67 and BAJAWES haven't broken yet )and hope to add the 2 post hoist in the not to distant future. Soon I will have the mill and lathe back and once I run 3 phase to it I will even be able to plug it all in again. Then I just need to pich up the 85cfm compressor so I can run the big ass blast cabinet.
Now if only I had the time to use all my toys and space.:cry

volma1 路

Have a 9.6mx12.5mx3m shed colourbond, a 6mx6m shed zincalume and dont know the size of the bunker yet as I haven't emptied it since I bought it, solid concrete single car garage with big workshop. The last one came complete with lathes(wood and metal), electric hacksaw, drill presses and usual gear that an engineer would use over a 50+year career.volma1

Dasdubber 路

Not big enough (is a shed ever too big?) - only a single car garage under the house plus a bit of extra room for compressor, benches etc etc - tighter than I like 馃槑

fish 路

some of these guys live in a heaven like place. a shed, a shed, my kingdom for a huge kickarse shed. fish:bounce

kOMBI KARMA 路

I have a garage/shed with a pit that could fit 6 kombis in it but alas all it contains is my one Kombi a drum kit and a mower. I dont have many tools as Im of the female sex and unfortunately not too good with mechanics as yet.:cry

72TWINCAB 路

I thought I was doing it tough. But, I now realise that I have it pretty good. I have a highset house with parking for 2 cars and a workshop 3M x 5M to keep the tools and parts馃榾

It's pooring rain in BrisVagus today and my Kombi is under the house snug as a bug in a rug. Lifes Good:thumb

Andy 路

Well Brad if you want to be like that I should take you out to my Dads. Two sheds, 12m x 40m and 4m x 12m, and more machines than you know what to do with.
Now he's reitred they don't get a lot of use any more. I just need to convince him to let me loose on them (he's very protective of it all). :cry

Starbug 路

ive got space to fit my bug with about 30cm either side under my flat. its a dirt floor too... it gets very messy! oh what a joy it would be to have a backyard!

Unity-28 路

Shed... Whats that!

I wish!

N!:cry

mattie 路

i cant remember what the inside of my shed looks like its full of beetle parts up to the door!!!:alien

type3kid 路

mine is two car wide, has enough clearance to work on the side, and can almost fit both my type 3's in long ways. only problem is mum took it over for her business so i've been relegated to under some shadecloth while the other sits under a car cover. i have started accumulating more parts recently and i am starting to win it back. once the new paint goes on, i score a garage attatched to the house. pretty snug fit for the type 3 but keeps it undercover.

56astro 路

Ours is 7m x 7.5m with a 6m x 7.5m carport out front, and a 7m x 3m BBQ area down the side.

Here is inside, EMPTY

56astro 路

..... and full (doesn't take much to fill the buggers up eh?)

OvalGlen 路

I have a Big double garage - so messy , it has only enough room for my Oval.
The big problem is when doing repairs, it takes just as much time finding the parts and tools as the job itself.
One day I'll clean it ( and get rid of the gear my wife stowed in there.) 馃檨

lowdown 路

too too small, just big enough for the notch, the bbq and a couple of bikes but not big enough to work on the notch in there have to push it out intto the driveway.

jenz58 路

What shed??馃檨

Well I do have a shed I can only just turn around in

Have a car port which I try to park the two VW's under

If I ever remember to buy a ticket and Uncle George pays out then down comes the old bungalow and up goes a nice big garage:sandrine

Bugged Again 路

remember guys its not how big it is but how you use it :bounce:bounce:bounce

big enough for 1 car, have to drive over the bits of timber to get in, a problem when cars and building are hobbies.

Now need to rustle something up for the new kombi coming.

Mad Manx 路

My manx SHARES a single carport with a ute( cause its short I have it parked sideways) altho we have a four bay shed nothing can get in cause its chocked full of motorbikes,diffs,gearboxs,possumes,and most importantly- tools

baybuscamperkid 路

a dig out under the house just big enough for parts/tools storage and my 10+ bicycles. bus down the side of the house, no cover in a space so small i cant open the side doors properly.

Boozer 路

I've got several sheds.馃榾 The two car garage at home that is full of stuff, the three car shed up at my farm, the carport that can fit about four cars also at my farm and the old shipping container that has been converted into a shed. My Dad's also got plans for a bigger three car garage in the backyard soon...

Boozer 路

Pictures of my sheds...firstly the workshop. This is just a pic of a small section, this is a classic workshop with parts hanging from the rafters and walls. In case you were wondering the Barbera Streisand record is full of bulletholes from a friend's .45 auto and if you couln't tell he doesn't like Barbera Streisand...馃榾

matt 路

my shed is 12m x 7.5m i currently have 5 cars 2 motor bikes in it. Plus bbq, lawn mower, 4 bettle motors 2 crates of VW parts, cupboards, workbench 2 welders 2 air compressors and a wall full of tools!! Fridge, TV and dart board!! what else do you need!! :thumb

Boozer 路

This is the carport up at my farm. With the paddock basher, the 74 superbug that is going to be my sister's bug and my brother's 62 baja bug, both bug's are not running at the moment and are upcoming projects. Yes that is the remains of a outdoor dunny in the background...

Shed envy:jesus

type_one 路

Had to get in on this. Love my Shed. This was taken a while ago. It is a lot more crowded now though. Just ashame it's not at my house. It's at my lovely Grandmothers house who let me build this in her back yard. Put it up myself. Was so much fun.

vw_carrera 路

lovely shed dude - talk about shed envy....
Hey your type III has a passenger mirror thread, I'm after one of those doors - got any spare?

phatrat 路

mmmm... double garage,office, shower,toliet etc...fit 2 kombis


Driveway all asphalt...fit 2 semi-trailers.

Tools....normally shit

Peter Leonard 路

i reckon i'm in the running for most stupidly-hard-to-work-on fixing area. i live on a steep hill, with a steep drive leading to it of three metres long, where i do my tinkering. I have multiple chunks of wood and bricks and stuff to stop me from being sqwished, but the woodworking-oriented garage is triton filled and has just enough room for my luvly kwaka. if you drop something, it rolls down the slanty drive, and off down the hill.... woohoooo
builds character... at least it's not covered in rocks and grass 馃榾

KruizinKombi 路

Peter, I think fatboy might beat you for lack of shed space! 馃榾 Got some photo's for us Steve?

twoguns 路

it has taken me a little while. but i have now moved and am starting to set up the 'manshed'. it is 12 x 9m and i thought this would be enuf. but with the bus buggy, notch and bikes. it has become apparent that more is needed. luckily i have room to put a double garage extension out the back if it all becomes too cluttered down the track.

type82e 路

heres a pic of my temporary carport tacked on the back of my father inlaws old shed. whom weve moved in with while we build our new house its about 4m by 4.5m just enough to house my beetle and some bits and pieces
at the new house were building a 4 car shed 6m by 12m plus the dlug for my wife's car and bits and pieces
