Your spot on, A colleague had arranged to purchase several and did some investigating. His contact in WAPOL radio Tech confirmed that ( and I ve deleted the email, sorry if its not entirely correct) that the EPROMS had been removed and that they would be best utilised as a boat anchor.

And If I remember right, these were available from the auctioneers at welshpool.

They were the Barrets

Now, a bit more info re SuperShed. I'd expect every one of us is quite attached to his 'shed' and always interested in what the other bloke has :))))))

Glad you asked Gramps, never shy to talk about the 'Taj Mahal'.

Caufield green clourbond 9m x 7.5m with a wall height of 3m and 15 degree pitched roof. 100m reinforced slab of high-strength driveway mix concrete. 6m x 3m opening via sliding doors to the driveway, 3m x 3.5m slider to the 'washdown' bay. Drive in or drive through - take your pick. All alarmed and keyed alike locks.

Mains water (19mm), plumbed dunny, laundry trough, 30amps cabling (no 3 phase to house darn it), steel welding bench, too many power points, skylights for natural lighting, reloading bench, tarp suspended on rails to make a spray booth..... Out side sound proofed compressor running into a 6 outlet wall mount manifold, water tank with a tap inside, two fridges, tinny am radio, no phone but wireless two way intercom with two neighbours and a gate through the neighbours fence for important shed business. A pot belly slow combustion stove with stainelss steel flue and a small wall mount aircon over the workbench are going in too. Gantry crane is on the cards as well.

It has taken a world of pain to make this happen. It is 1. oversize, 2. over height, 3. has no offset (ie; it IS the fence), is built over the 'ministers sewer' so it has to have Water Corp exemption and approval as well as special council planning and building approval. Underground it sports 11 x 230mm diameter reinforced pilings under 500mm cubed poured concrete footings to support it as per the required consulting structural engineer's drawings and the signatures of all 4 surrounding neighbours to allow it be built.

Am I looking forward to this.....yes, yes I am. I have worked like a demon to make it happen and have wanted something like this since I was a child.

Yippee!!!

LOL Bloody Hell !!!! Taj Mahal +1 would be a more apt description.

When you started talking about underground I half expected you to have included your own shooting range hahahahahaha.

You do realize you could become the target for a 'class action' taken out by the better halves of your neighbours :))) We know where the boys will be when this cubbyhouse is completed. Well done.
